The Diving Bell and Butterfly
Juno
Michael Clayton
No Country For Old Men
There Will Be Blood
The notable exclusions...
- Golden Globe Winners & Guild Losers: Atonement & Sweeney Todd.
- SGA, WGA, DGA nominated film...Into The Wild.
- And the big box office success...American Gangster.
The PGA nominees over the past 18 years end up being 75.6% in line with the eventual academy nominees. Statistical one of the PGA films above won't get nominated and one of the other 4 contenders will.
I can't wait until January 22nd to see how these nominations pan out. It's great to have a mysterious best picture line up. There is certainly some heavy competition amongst these great films.
It is all uncertain now, but once the nominations are announced it will all seem boring.
