Academy Award winner Angelina Jolie has just been named Outstanding Performance of the Year by the Santa Barbara International Film Festival for her performance in A Mighty Heart. Past recepients have been last year's winner Helen Mirren and previous nominees Heath Ledger and Kate Winslet. Does this mean Angelina could be nominated? Maybe.
I think if she gets brought in that we should definitely see Brad Pitt for The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford who's buzz has been nearly diminished in the past weeks with the exception of Casey Affleck and along with the buzz from Gone Baby Gone, that should keep Affleck in the spotlight for the rest of the year.
Back to Jolie, does she have a chance. Share with us!

Of course she deserves to be nominated. That scene where she breaks down in "A Mighty Heart" is still one of the most heartbreaking and powerful things I've seen all year in a movie.
ReplyDeleteI have the feeling the DVD release will help to increase the film's buzz.
ReplyDeleteYou should put her in your top 5. At the moment she is in the top 5 and I cant see her out. If the critics go with her...maybe she has a shot to win.
