The year's greatest conflict.ITALIANO wrote:To me, the difference between a serious award group and a, let's say, less serious one, is the Kate Winslet potential-double-nomination issue. The Oscars and the BAFTA solved it one way, the Globes and these made another choice.
I've said all along that Winslet's performance n The Reader was the year's best female performance, but went back and forth over her placement many times until Oscar sorted it out.
Se the movie before you judge which groups were more right, it really could have gone either way.

I have to say I'm often frustrated voting for these awards because every time they roll around, I have only seen VERY few of the "Oscar" films and only a handful of films period so my ballot is filled with either Dark Knight, WALL-E or Benjamin Button with an odd Burn After Reading and Iron Man.

I will tell you this. There were a large number of votes in both categories. However, she earned the nod in Supporting. And it's a matter of opinion whether her role is lead or supporting and while many would say it's lead, others would say it's supporting, so it's a matter of personal opinion and should not be a negative reflection on the body as a whole.
