I am a movie buff and I don't normally bet on the gold statue, but may have to this year!

Here is what I am looking at for this year's BIG SHOW

Okay best pic should go to Breakmyback Mountain, but if your looking for a long shot that could pay Capote is the one!

Best Motion Picture:>>
Brokeback Mountain 1/13>>
Crash 11/1>>
Munich 32/1>>

DARKHORSE ALERT Capote 32/1>>

Good Night and Good Luck 49/1>>
>

Best Actor is wide open, but award shows leading up the event >are always a decent indicator of what to expect from Oscar. You have to with Hoffman here but Phoenix is a great Dark Horse

Best Actor:>>
Philip Seymour Hoffman 1/7>>
Heath Ledger 5/1>>
Joaquin Phoenix 24/1>>
David Strathaim 66/1>>
Terrence Howard 199/1>>

Only one to go with Reese and that is it. The odds don't lie here
>>
Best Actress:>>
Reese Witherspoon 4/11>>
Felicity Huffman 2/1>>
Judi Dench 99/1>>
Keira Knightley 99/1>>
Charlize Theron 199/1>>

Tempted to take Clooney?? I wouldn't this is going to be a make up for Giamatti who should have collected for Sideways

>>
Best Supporting Actor:>>
Paul Giamatti 1/3>>
George Clooney 4/1>>
William Hurt 19/1>>
Matt Dillon 19/1>>
Jake Gyllenhaal 24/1>>

This category is always tough and this year is no different
>>
Best Supporting Actress:>>
Rachel Weisz 1/4>>
Amy Adams 8/1>>
Michelle Williams 10/1>>
Catherine Keener 19/1>>
Frances McDormand 24/1>>

Ang Lee should get the nod, but watch out for Buzz leading up to teh big night that changes everything

>>
Best Director:>>
Ang Lee 1/19>>
Steven Spielberg 15/1>>
Bennett Miller 24/1>>
Paul Haggis 32/1>>

Thing thing about these award shows. The people I want to win and think deserve to win.....NEVER WIN. So let me tell you who I think should get it, and you can rule them out for sure. Will post my picks some time later on.
