Oscar Predictions Supporting Actor/Actress

SHOULD WIN: Heath Ledger

WILL WIN: Heath Ledger

BOTTOM LINE: It's not even worth explaining the reasons or who could be an upset, because it simply isn't going to happen. Heath carried Dark Knight, no wait, he dominated Dark Knight. People were talking about his performance before he even passed away and they will continue to talk about it long after Sunday's awards.




SHOULD WIN: Viola Davis
WILL WIN: Penelope Cruz
BOTTOM LINE: In most cases two nominations from the same movie would hurt the chances of one of the actresses winning, but not in this case. What Viola Davis was able to capture in the limited screen time she had in Doubt, in took Amy Adams the whole movie to achieve. Marisa Tomei stripped down to showcase that her win for My Cousin Vinny wasn't a fluke. Taraji P. Henson was comforting in Benjamin Button, but the story could be a bit overshadowing of her performance. However, Penelope was the best part of Vicky Christina Barcelona and as history proves, Woody Allen's actresses usually have luck winning Oscar.
