BURY MY HEART AT WOUNDED KNEE
THE COMPANY
FIVE DAYS
LONGFORD
THE STATE WITHIN

My predictions: 1/5, 3/5, and 3/5.

I have very little to say about these categories. I am thrilled about the love for "Longford" (also in the supporting categories) and thrilled that "The Starter Wife" was left over the best mini-series list. I would like to note that Ernest Borgnine is 90 years old and has just received his first nomination since 1955. Otherwise, I am really excited to see "The State Within" but saddened to find out that it will not be released on DVD until late February, well after these awards air. At least I do not have to watch "For One More Day" now.

Who will win? Best Actor should hopefully go to deserving Jim Broadbent, though I would be equally happy to see Jason Isaacs take home a trophy. Best Actress should be Debra Messing now that she does not have to contend with Helen Mirren. Best TV Movie is most likely Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee.
