The coveted little guy (AP)

Another week, and still no change in the nominees list. When I add the supporting categories for next week, you can bet that Cate Blanchett's turn in I'm Not There (the only good thing about the movie) will be on the list. But looking into the ol' crystal ball, I'm afraid the top three categories will remain unchanged next week as well. There are only three movies coming out this weekend, and none of them look like Oscar material. As always, keep in mind that this list only includes movies that have come out in Dallas, and as new movies are released, I'll update the list. With that in mind, on to the list of nominees...

Best Picture
American Gangster
The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford
Eastern Promises
No Country for Old Men
Into the Wild
Best Actor
Tommy Lee Jones (In the Valley of Elah)
Emile Hirsch (Into the Wild)
Viggo Mortensen (Eastern Promises)
George Clooney (Michael Clayton)
Denzel Washington (American Gangster)
Best Actress
Cate Blanchett (Elizabeth: The Golden Age)
Julie Christie (Away from Her)
Marion Cotillard (La Vie en Rose)
Halle Berry (Things We Lost in the Fire)
Angelina Jolie (A Mighty Heart)

The campaign to promote Julie Christie for a best actress nomination is also reviving interest in the film itself. I'm hearing about increased support for "Away From Her" in the best picture category with a corresponding weakening of support for "American Gangster."
