More so I think Director than anything else. From the reviews I've read, I have a strong inkling that Mr. Lumet will receive, to put it bluntly, "you're still alive and kickin'" nomination. They say that his direction is just as sharp as any filmmaker today, and while I haven't seen the film to back that up with, I'll take their word for it until I have a chance to decide myself.OscarGuy wrote:I've missed posting several screeners including Sharkwater, The Walker, The TV Set, Avenue Montaigne, Operation Homecoming and War/Dance since they didn't have FYC info listed, but here's one that does.

This and Screenplay I believe are the film's biggest possibilities, though I do find Tomei extremely attractive.
