Oscar 2009 Predictions: Best Supporting Actor, Supporting Actress

Josh Brolin in Milk

BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR
Josh Brolin (Milk)
Robert Downey Jr. (Tropic Thunder)
Philip Seymour Hoffman (Doubt)
Heath Ledger (The Dark Knight)
Dev Patel (Slumdog Millionaire)
Though about as much a lead in The Dark Knight as Christian Bale, Heath Ledger is (almost) for sure the one who’ll win the best supporting actor Oscar come next February.
Philip Seymour Hoffman should get included for Doubt and Robert Downey Jr. for his politically incorrect actor in Tropic Thunder.
Of the extensive supporting cast in Milk, Josh Brolin is the most likely contender, while Dev Patel, who apparently supports himself in Slumdog Millionaire, should also make the cut thanks to his film’s popularity.
Runners-up: Michael Sheen (Frost/Nixon), as much a lead as Frank Langella, is being [...]

ALFIE – Jude Law, Susan Sarandon

Alfie (2004)
Direction: Charles Shyer
Screenplay: Elaine Pope and Charles Shyer; from Bill Naughton’s 1964 play and 1966 screenplay, which were based on Naughton’s 1962 radio play Alfie Elkins and His Little Life
Cast: Jude Law, Susan Sarandon, Marisa Tomei, Jane Krakowski, Omar Epps, Sienna Miller, Nia Long
 

Jude Law in Alfie
 

A major financial flop that received — at best — mixed reviews, Charles Shyer’s Alfie remake deserved better. This dramatic comedy about a thirty-something supreme narcissist who must shag every good-looking woman in sight until he is taught a Lesson is no worse than other trendy, moralizing films like the well-received About a Boy and Bridget Jones’ Diary.
