I can't believe Sandra Bullock is even nominated for best actress 2010. All Sandra does is mumble her lines in a way a lot of people can't even understand, to date I've never undertood her, even when i press my ears over the TV screen.

To compensate for her lack of acting credentials, she laughs and giggles to the point of irritation, all the while mumbling inaudible words, which not even a great actress like Streep would be able to decipher.

Oh yeah, Bullock has influence in the industry of Arts and Entertainment. her Mom's a respectable Opera Singer.

End of!

YOU ALL ARE CRAZY!!! Gabourey ‘Gabby’ Sidibe in "Precious" is great in this movie. I cried each scene and I am a big, muscular black man. I haven't seen any of the other movies, but they seem plain and usual, like most moives these actresses do. It takes power to play roles that are deemed negative and bring life to them. I could not have done anything like this. Great performance Gabby and congratulations on your Best Actress Ward at the NAACP Awards!!!!

I think Oscar belongs to Sandra Bullock, not because she's my favourite actress - because ''The Blind Side'' is a great job and she deserved it!

Catalina Saavedra for The Maid.

Her performing is so simple and deeply at the same time.

Catalina Saavedra byfar. The best actress of 2009. The movie "The maid" is the best i have seen this year, and her performance is amazing.
She won best actress in Sundance Festival, La Habana Festival, Huelva, Gotham, Lima, nominated to a Golden globe….
IF SHE IS NOT NOMINATED FOR AN OSCAR IS BECAUSE OF BUROCRACY, BECAUSE SHE DESERVES IT!

You are absolutely right. In fact, I hope she *does* get a nod.

you totally missed Catalina Saavedra in "The Maid". Even Tom O'Neill mentioned her as a possible contender.

I haven't seen JULIA, though I remember it was screened at one of the big European festivals.

LOL, what's Japan!?

Oh, wow, I forgot Tilda Swinton in Julia! Now that is one insane, stylized and fantastic performance. No shot at a nomination, but one that will certainly be loved and admired for years.

I should have mentioned Kyôko Koizumi in my "should be pushed" addendum.
Koizumi was indeed superb.
But I don't think that the majority of Academy members know that they make movies in Japan…

Streep, Sidibe and Mulligan seem very likely at this point. I don't quite buy Cornish, as her performance is very understated until the end (her last two scenes are very good AND very baity). But it is a reasonable prediction. The Helen Mirren film/role seems tailor-made for awards consideration. So, I would pick her slightly over Cornish (and especially Pfeiffer for her D.O.A. film; Mirren seems more likely to take a second veteran spot). Rounding out my top five is Cotillard pushed lead in Nine. Perhaps a stretch and a little bit of wishful thinking, but folks in sneaks seem to really champion her and Cruz (obviously going supporting for Nine because of the Almodovar film).

Sadly Moreau, Abbass and the always wonderful Shohreh Aghdashloo and my favorite so far, Kyôko Koizumi for Tokyo Sonata, will be left out.

Yolande Moreau doesn't stand a chance. She shouldn't have been included in this article.

My vote goes to Penelope Cruz in Abrazos.
I havent seen the movie, but Penelope Cruz is always good.
