Academy Award Predictions for 2013

MY ACADEMY AWARD PREDICTIONS FOR 2013

I am quite a movie buff and has been enjoying the Academy and Golden Globes my entire life!Here are my predictions for this year;
Please add your comments !

Best Picture
For sure " Argo" Academy members will compensate up to some extent for not nominating Ben Affleck in best director category.

Best Actor
Daniel Day Lewis will hopefully win his third Oscar for portraying Abraham Lincoln , superbly. Other fine performance was by Joaquin Pheonix .

Best Actress
Jennifer Lawrence in Silver Linning Playbook. A good performance as a troubled widow or Jessica Chastain as an agent in Zero Dark Thirty. Tough fight among two aspiring actresses!

Best supporting Actress
Sally Field as the mesmerizing Mary Todd Lincoln.

Best Supporting Actor
I guess it's a tight race between Christoph Waltz in Django Unchained and Tommy Lee Jones in Lincoln.

Best Director
Ang Lee for Life of Pie or Steven Spielberg for Lincoln. Academy members like movies about historic figures so Spielburg may have an edge.

Animated Feature Film
Wreck it Ralph most probably!

Adapted Screenplay
Argo but Life of Pie may come close due to the immense popularity of the book.

Orignal Screenplay
Zero Dark Thirty about the Bin Laden hunt !
