Oscar Nominees: Best Original Screenplay


My predictions: 2/5, picking only “The Artist” and “Midnight in Paris”
My ballot: Come back next week!
The nominees: The Artist, Bridesmaids, Margin Call, Midnight in Paris, A Separation

No luck for the comedies that I thought could make a dent here, like “50/50,” “Win Win,” “Young Adult,” or my favorite, “Beginners,” instead making way for “Bridesmaids” to represent the funny with “Midnight in Paris” and “The Artist.” The two dramatic films honored in their place, however, are both great choices. I actually cheered for certain Foreign Film winner “A Separation,” and “Margin Call” is a strong selection as well.

My current bet to win: “Midnight in Paris”
