I agree - his best chance was the aviator...he was phenomenal in it. I also can't wait to see him in the great gatsby.
Great Gatsby's expected to have Academy Award nominations for the techs but not for the big categories. It's opening at Sundance, but it got pushed from a 2013 release, and there was buzz that it might be a mess. I found the trailer kinda d
On Awards Circuit, these are the frontrunners for each category. I know that Steve Carell and Julia Roberts/Margo Martindale are considered strong contenders for Foxcatcher and August: Osage County respectively.
