Just an alert to watch the Oscar nominations tomorrow morning (8:30am EST). I am thinking Slumdog Millionaire will do well and I'm assuming Kate Winslet will get her nominations. I think it's also fairly clear that Mickey Rourke will get his, Heath Ledger will get one, and Sean Penn and Frank Langella should get theirs. I will cheer if Sally Hawkins gets one for Happy Go Lucky and will die of excitement if In Bruges gets anything. I'm also crossing my fingers that Gran Torino does well because that was one great movie.
A lot of critics are betting that The Dark Knight will make a showing but I'm not convinced it will make any waves beyond Ledger's nomination. There are certainly quite a few strong films this year and I know that The Dark Knight isn't at the top of that list for me.
Tune in and then we can discuss tomorrow!

I thought that this blog site was so wonderful that I submitted the blog to a Chicago publication that is publishing blogs for free in a printed newspaper format that will be distributed all over Chicago. I hope that they reprint some of your blogs in that paper. (called the Printed Blog).
Thank you! I'll have my Chicago spies keep an eye out! :)
