Oscar Night

++If you want all the skinny on the Oscars,read the L.A. Times.

++Since I always get the Oscars wrong, here are my picks:

Best Picture: Lincoln

Best Actress: Jennifer Lawrence "Silver Linings"

Best Actor: Daniel Day-Lewis "Lincoln"

Best Supporting Actress: Anne Hathaway" Le Mis", but my personal choice is Helen Hunt "The Sessions"

Best Supporting Actor: Robert DeNiro "Silver Linings",probable winner Tommy Lee Jones "Lincoln"

Best Director: My choice Michael Haneke for "Amour",probable pick Steven Spielberg for Lincoln

Original Screenplay: Quentin Tarantino "Django Unchained"

Adapted Screenplay: Tony Kushner "Lincoln"

Foreign Language Film: Austria "Amour"

Original Song: Adele "Skyfall"

If it turns out that it is not a big Lincoln night, then look for a lot of scatter shot choices. "Silver Linings " has come on as the sleeper because of excellent performances and the present zeitgeist is bipolar.
