Neal Vitale Reviews: Oscar Handicapping
January 28, 2007
[Neal had a good year; he wanted me to remind you he was second-guessing the Academy, not picking his personal favorites, in the list published here last week]
Not too bad – 23 out of 30. Got all the actresses (including Cruz!). Flip-flopped director/film with United 93/Greengrass.
Biggest surprise in a bad way – Nicholson not getting nominated for Departed.
Biggest surprise in a good way – Dreamgirls not getting Best Picture or Best Director
