Academy Awards 2011 Best Leading Actress nominees predictions (1st round)

- Annette Bening for The Kids Are All Right: Benning is a bit overdue for an Oscar winning and her role as a lesbian mother named Nic seems amazing and may give her a statuette in Kodac Theatre just because Annette Bening received acclaimed reviews in almost her cinema works (The Grifters, American Beauty, Being Julia, Running With Scissors) and I've a feeling that her The Kids Are All Right performance is not less than awesome (she got raves for her performance). If she will not received an Oscar or, at least, a nomination, something's going wrong with the Academy.

- Anne Hathaway for Love & Other Drugs: early reviews say that she's "wonderful" and "she knocks it out of the park" as a woman who suffers from Parkinson's and we know that she is a good actress with some bad movie choices, but, in spite of this, she's really talented and she can shine when she has the right material. She shares the big screen with Jake Gyllenhaal (a very good actor) and good actors together make each other's performance even better, but I've my concerns about the fact that the movie may be too much melodramatic in exploring Hathaway's character's disease. Let's wait and see the final result of Love & Other Drugs.

- Jennifer Lawrence for Winter's Bone: Lawrence's performance was compared as a "force of Nature" and there's a lot of reviews that says she deserve an Oscar nod and I believe that it will really happen. Jennifer Lawrence is a young actress but she puts a lot of maturity that's rare in such a little girl. She's not a child, but she's was very good in the Burning Plain and after her raves for her performance in Winter's Bone, I'm almost sure she'll get an Academy Award nomination for Best Leading Actress. We can't forget that the Academy loves breakthrough performances from young and pretty actresses.

- Nicole Kidman for Rabbit's Hole: well... it's gonna be a long long time (maybe 7 years) when Nicole Kidman was the cinema's world's muse. She has a great body of work (To Die For, Moulin Rouge, The Hours, Cold Mountain), but since 7 years ago she has been loosing critics' and audience's love. She can act and everybody knows that and Rabbit Hole may be her ticket back to sucess. We hope the movie's good because I just don't wanna seeing an entire cast crying (melodramatic movies rarely get raves). The play gave some awards to stage's cast and if the movie has a decent direction, Kidman shine easily again and get critics' and Academy's love.

- Julia Roberts for Eat, Pray, Love: she's 42 and she keeps being America's Sweetheart. No matter in which project she's in, she makes it good and sells and the same will happen with Eat, Pray, Love, the kind of movie that almost audiences like (the real story of an independent woman that challenges herself and everything). Eat, Pray, Love is based on a memoirs book and a movie adaptation of this kind of literature lets always the lead actor or actress shine. Roberts will get an Oscar nod if she and the movie itslef get good reviews and a good box office performance.
It's all about popularity in some cases (like Julia Roberts')!



in consideration: Dakota Fanning (The Runaways); Hillary Swank (Conviction); Michelle Williams (Blue Valentine);
