Yay Marisa Tomei! Two noms today! I finally saw the Wrestler, definitely deserves to be in the top 5 (screw you Dark Knight and Frost/Nixon!) and Marisa was great, other then Penelope Cruz, Marisa would be my second choice for the win
ReplyDeletevery much my own sentiments, without the screw you to TDK and Frost/Nixon, though i obviously prefer TDK to Frost/Nixon, as my reviews would indicate
