Best Supporting Actor in a Motion Picture
Kenneth Branagh – My Week with Marilyn
Albert Brooks – Drive
Jonah Hill – Moneyball
Viggo Mortensen – A Dangerous Method
Christopher Plummer – Beginners
WHO SHOULD WIN: Christopher Plummer for Beginners. There’s no denying just how much I love Drive, so secretly I want a win for Drive (seeing as how the film wasn’t nominated for Best Motion Picture, Best Director, or Best Actor). But it’s clear that Plummer went above and beyond and deserves this award compared to the rest of the gang here.
WHO WILL WIN: Christopher Plummer for Beginners. ‘Nuff said!
Best Actor in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy
Jean Dujardin – The Artist
Brendan Gleeson – The Guard
Joseph Gordon-Levitt – 50/50
Ryan Gosling – Crazy, Stupid, Love
Owen Wilson – Midnight in Paris
WHO SHOULD WIN: Ryan Gosling for Crazy, Stupid, Love. How can you not root for the man of the year? (and without a doubt, the standout of Crazy, Stupid, Love) It was all about Gosling this year!
WHO WILL WIN: Jean Dujardin for The Artist. Seeing as how Dujardin doesn’t stand a chance when pinned up next to George Clooney, I’m expecting him to finally get some recognition on his own.
Best Actor in a Motion Picture – Drama
George Clooney – The Descendants
Leonardo DiCaprio – J. Edgar
Michael Fassbender – Shame
Ryan Gosling – The Ides of March
Brad Pitt – Moneyball
WHO SHOULD WIN: Michael Fassbender for Shame. Fassbender was raw, honest, and delivered such a strong performance. I can’t see any other actor doing what he did in Shame.
WHO WILL WIN: George Clooney for The Descendants. But people love Clooney (as do I), so I expect him to win once again.
