    yahooooooooooooooooooo ...
    ;)

    I really thought he stole the show ...
    Now, we have to wait and see Golden Globe and Oscar.
    Apparently, this category is tough too ...
    with
    - THOMAS HADEN (CHURCH SIDEWAYS)
    - JAMIE FOXX (COLLATERAL)
    - MORGAN FREEMAN (MILLION DOLLAR BABY)

    But I still insist that
    Given the disadvantage of NOT having many scenes,
    Clive Owen STILL manage to steal the show!!!

    Not surprised about Sideways getting all the critics awards. I recently saw the film and it is fantastic, worthy of the praise that is being thrust upon it. Unfortunately though its chances for winning an Oscar are next to nothing. Films like Sideways never win best picture Oscars, because it isn't a prestigious hyped up bloated epic. I haven't seen the Aviator, but I just get a feeling that the film was made for the sole purpose of winning Oscars. All the acting was great in Sideways, and until I see more films that will be my film to beat.
