Seems like No Country for Old Men is pertty solid for Picture & Director(s)
Actor is all over the place with Clooney, Day-Lewis et al.
Actress seems to be split between the Juno kid and Julie Christie.

The DGA nominations

Quote:

The DGA announced the nominations for the 60th annual event Tuesday in Los Angeles. The guild is perhaps the most accurate indicator of which director will go on to win the Best Director Academy Award. Only six of the previous 59 nominees have not gone on to win the Oscar in the category.

The Coen brothers, who are sharing the nomination for the DGA honor, will face off against Tony Gilroy for the legal thriller "Michael Clayton," Paul Thomas Anderson for the oil boom drama "There Will Be Blood," Julian Schnabel for the drama "The Dog and the Butterfly" and Sean Penn for the adventure drama "Into the Wild."

Wow, other than Ratatouille and Simpsons, I have not seen a single nominated film. That's pathetic, and I must remedy it. I wonder how many of these are available on Netflix?

Not enough in my opinion, but, there are enough of them to get you started.
Thats the same thing I'm doing currently.

Away From Her should be arriving today.

Golden Globe winners list this morning, I was happy to read of the win by Marion Cotilard for La Vie En Rose. That was a tour de force performace, of course, it did help to have Piaf doing the sound track. Nonetheless, I think she deserved a win for it.

I do want to see There Will Be Blood, looks like Daniel Day Lewis will be a solid winner this season, unless there is some incredible upset.

Yep, the winners of the Golden Globes

I just finished reading Atonement so I can see the film now.

I think you'll find you did that in the wrong order.

And I haven't even read the book .... but I can't believe that film won for Best Picture. Gak.
