    Director
    Actor
    Actress
    Supp. Actor
    Supp. Actress

    finished the same way at the Oscars.

  4. Vera Farmiga should have already received a nod for "Nothing But the Truth" or "The Departed" But that's common knowledge now....at least for film junkies.

    I'd like to see her as a leading lady for a change. She's proved herself as a supporting arch enough times.

    Anyone know anything interesting in the horizon? Imdb is only reporting some comedy with uh ne-.....Keanu Reeves.

  5. She's been a lead before. She got her role in Up in the Air because of her work in Down to the Bone.

  6. yea I know she's been lead...i was talking about up-coming projects...hence the "in the horizon" lol....I thought you knew of something that IMDB hasn't picked up yet.

  7. If you mean "on the horizon" then no, when I spoke to her quickly at the screening of Up in the Air she said she's got a young child and is taking things slowly. After the Oscars, she'll likely sign up for some stuff, if I had to guess...
