I have been looking forward to seeing Fork In The Road brought to the screen ever since I read it was a future Alexander Payne project. But I thought Nebraska was going to be his next project.

I haven't thought about Fork In The Road in years. After seeing Shame, I think Carey Mulligan would make a good Gina Furey.

It would be great if Jean-Louis Trintignant and Isabelle Huppert get nominations. But of course they won't.

It would interesting to see how many Best Picture nominees are in this list. I would bet that at least half of these will not even get any Oscar nominations in any categories.
