For whatever little they’re worth, here are my picks for tonight’s Oscar winners:
- Best Picture: Brokeback Mountain
- Best Director: Ang Lee for Brokeback Mountain
- Best Actor: Heath Ledger for Brokeback Mountain
- Best Actress: Reese Witherspoon for Walk the Line
- Best Supporting Actor: Paul Giamatti for Cinderella Man
- Best Supporting Actress: Catherine Keener for Capote
- Best Original Screenplay: Match Point – Woody Allen
- Best Adapted Screenplay: Capote – Dan Futterman
- Original Score: Memoirs of a Geisha
- Original Song: “In the Deep” – Crash
- Best Animated Feature Film: Howl’s Moving Castle
These are the nominees that I think will win in the top categories. I’m not even going to try to predict any of the other categories. These are barely educated guesses as it is.
