CLINT’S OSCAR PREDICTIONS for 2009

I have seen all ten Best Picture nominees and a few others. So based on what I have seen and hear, these are my predictions in this expanded best picture year. (I left short subjects alone but Wallace and Gromit are always a sure bet.) Enjoy!

BEST PICTURE-It was between Avatar and the Hurt Locker but Inglourious Basterds is strong with SAG. A new voting system could alter the results dramatically. In the end, THE HURT LOCKER has momentum.
BEST DIRECTOR-KATHRYN BIGELOW
BEST ORIGINAL SCREENPLAY-INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS unless Hurt Locker sweeps.
BEST ADAPTED SCREENPLAY-UP IN THE AIR is so good that it’s no contest.
BEST ACTOR-JEFF BRIDGES by popular demand
BEST ACTRESS-SANDRA BULLOCK over Meryl Streep unless the voters really have a change of heart.
BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR-CHRISTOPH WALTZ -no contest
BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS-MO’NIQUE -no contest
BEST ANIMATED FILM-UP
BEST FOREIGH FILM-EL SECRETO DE SUS OJOS
BEST CINEMATOGRAPHY-THE HURT LOCKER
BEST EDITING-THE HURT LOCKER
BEST SOUND-AVATAR
BEST SOUND EDITING-AVATAR
BEST ART DIRECTION-AVATAR
BEST COSTUME-THE YOUNG VICTORIA
BEST VISUAL EFFECTS-AVATAR
BEST MAKEUP-STAR TREK
BEST SCORE-UP
BEST SONG-“THE WEARY KIND”-CRAZY HEART
BEST DOCUMENTARY FEATURE-THE COVE
Top Oscar tally –Hurt Locker and Avatar with 4 apiece
