Watch me be the only one to predict 'Best Picture' accurately again.

Anyhow, only doing the 'important' categories...

Best Film: Ladybird (Alt: Call Me By Your Name)
Best Director: Luca Guadagnino - Call Me by Your Name (Alt: Christopher Nolan - Dunkirk)
Best Actor: Timothée Chalamet - Call Me By Your Name
Best Actress: Daniela Vega - A Fantastic Woman
Best Supporting Actor: Sam Rockwell - Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri
Best Supporting Actress: Laurie Metcalf - Lady Bird
Best Screenplay: Phantom Thread (Alt: Ladybird or Get Out)

A few comments to go with the predictions:

1) Boston has saved their awards for next Sunday, so we won't be getting our traditional double-header tomorrow.

2) If Daniela Vega wins their best actress prize, I'll never predict an English-speaking winner again.

3) LA REALLY has an aversion to mainstream animated features -- PIXAR has won a relative few here; Inside Out lost to Anomalisa; Finding Nemo to The Triplets of Bellevlle. So, if anyplace resists Coco, this should be it.
