Inatt är det dags för den årliga utdelningen av filmpriset Oscar! Vid midnatt börjar de sända Oscarsgalan på kanal 9 här i Sverige!
Får väl se hur pigg jag känner mej om jag orkar se något av det! När nomineringarna släpptes hade jag höga ambitioner om att ha sett alla filmer innan prisutdelningen men det har väl inte riktigt blivit så!
Men jag har iallafall sett några stycken.. vissa väldigt bra å några lite väl morbida för min smak! :)

Tonight it's time for the Oscars! It starts at midnight here in Sweden.. will see how awake I feel at that time and if I will watch any of it!  When the nominations were out I had a high ambition to see allt he movies before tonight... Didn't really manage that but I've at least seen a few! Some very good and some a bit to morbid for me!

Här kommer nomineringarna igen och några kommentarer på de olika katergorierna där jag kände att jag hade någonting att säga :) (* är filmer jag har sett!)
Here are the nominations again and some comments on the different cathegories (* = movies I've seen)

Actor in a Leading Role

• Jeff Bridges in “Crazy Heart”
• George Clooney in “Up in the Air” *
• Colin Firth in “A Single Man”
• Morgan Freeman in “Invictus”
• Jeremy Renner in “The Hurt Locker”

- Up in the Air är den enda filmen jag sett som blivit nominerad för bästa manliga roll men den var väldigt bra! Den är värd sin nominering! Up in the Air is the only of these movies I've seen but I really liked it and I think it's well worth it's nomination!

Actor in a Supporting Role

• Matt Damon in “Invictus”
• Woody Harrelson in “The Messenger”
• Christopher Plummer in “The Last Station”
• Stanley Tucci in “The Lovely Bones”
• Christoph Waltz in “Inglourious Basterds”

Actress in a Leading Role

• Sandra Bullock in “The Blind Side” *
• Helen Mirren in “The Last Station”
• Carey Mulligan in “An Education” *
• Gabourey Sidibe in “Precious: Based on the Novel ‘Push’ by Sapphire” *
• Meryl Streep in “Julie & Julia” *

- Jag har sett fyra av de fem nominerade filmerna och jag tror nog att Carey Mulligan eller Gabourey Sidibe vinner priset för bästa skådespelerska! Jag tycker båda två var extremt duktiga! I've seen four of the five nominees and I think that Carey or Gabourney will win this price1 Both of them were playing their role extremly well I think!

Actress in a Supporting Role

• Penélope Cruz in “Nine”
• Vera Farmiga in “Up in the Air” *
• Maggie Gyllenhaal in “Crazy Heart”
• Anna Kendrick in “Up in the Air” *
• Mo’Nique in “Precious: Based on the Novel ‘Push’ by Sapphire” *

- Eftersom Mo´Nique redan vunnit det här priset på Golden globe och SAG har jag för mej så är det nog en stor chans att hon vinner den även här! Men jag tycker Anna Kendrick var rätt bra i Up in the Air också!  Since Mo'Nique already has won this price before at the Golden Globe and SAG (I think) I belive she'll win it once again.. But I also think that Anna Kendrick did a good job in Up in the Air!

• “The Young Victoria” Art Direction: Patrice Vermette; Set Decoration: Maggie Gray

- JAG ÄLSKADE Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus när jag såg den! Grät som ett litet barn så fort jag såg Heath Ledger och varenda gång jag såg att de hade en ny känd skådespelare som ersatte honom! Hoppas med andra ord på att den vinner! LOVED Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus and I cried when I saw that Heath ledger was in it! And then I cried each time I saw that another actor was playing his role! So I hope that movie wins!

- An Education var jättefint filmad och Avatar är ju som en dröm! Tror kanske att Avatar vinner men det vore kul om An Education gjorde det! I really liked the way they'd made An Education and Avatar is just like a dream! I think that Avatar will win this price but it would be fun if An Education did!
