Feb 2012

The Artist
Michel H. director
Jean Dujardin-actor

I would have liked to see Berenice Bejo in Actress as opposed to Supporting
I think Viola Davis will win actress, Octavia Spencer supporting though it is about time if Glenn Close won and Michelle Williams is loved by Hollywood so perhaps she will.

Christopher Plummer for supporting actor. He is overdue for an Oscar.
