Predictions

Updated: 3/28/12

1. Carey Mulligan
(The Great Gatsby)
2. Keira Knightley
(Anna Karenina)
3. Meryl Streep
(Great Hope Springs)
4. Emily Blunt
(My Sister's Sister)
5. Quvenzhane Wallis
(Beasts of the Southern Wild)
Mulligan got close a few years ago with "An Education", this may be the film that gets her up on that stage Knightley is another actress like Mulligan that will likely have an Oscar one day. Playing a role Garbo had, might be the one to do it. I don't think Streep will win her 4th Oscar for this particular film, but because she's Meryl Streep, she's already a contender. I think next year, she has a much bigger shot with "August: Osage County" Emily Blunt is another one of my favorites, and this film looks promising on paper. My Wild Card. She was a hit at Sundance, so the real test comes now to see if she can go all the way. We haven't had a really young nominee in a while.

On The Radar...
