Jake Gittes Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Sally Field could maybe score a nomination if the movie gets a decent distributor. http://www.indiewire.com/article/sxsw-review-sally-field-delivers-a-winning-performance-in-hello-my-name-is-doris-20150314 http://variety.com/2015/film/news/sally-field-gets-cheers-for-rare-leading-role-in-sxsw-romance-1201452963/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see anything sad about a new Streep nomination next year. In fact, she has two possible great/good performances/roles in 2015, Suffragette and Ricki and the Flash. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very late reply I know-but I was saying the sad part is knowing the Academy they would nominate her for sitting in a chair if you read the post Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmlover Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Streep is not getting her 20th nomination this year. Ricki and the Flash made little at the box office, got decent but not great reviews, and its studio has already said they are unlikely to give it a campaign of any kind at the end of the year (the previous two factors will solidify that decision). Her role in Suffragette is widely reported to be a 5 minute one scene cameo (like almost all of her screen time is in the trailer), so no to that as well.

Webslinger Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Yeah, Streep definitely isn't going to be in the running this year. She's good in Ricki and the Flash, but with the mediocre reviews and quiet box office performance, she's not going to get much traction for it (if any). Her best hope is a Golden Globe nod, which is possible considering just how far that organization has stretched its definitions of both "musical" and "comedy." I'm still holding out the incredibly unrealistic hope that Charlize Theron will somehow snag a nod for Mad Max. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean My Week with Marilyn was not a laugh fest? I mean it was nominated for comedy/musical On a serious note-she probably will be nominated for a Globe, I didn't have much faith though in that film outside of a possible acting nod in the first place though.

stripe Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Also, Streep isn't going to be nommed because this year looks to be very strong with female roles. JLaw, Emily Blunt, Saoirse Ronan, Blanchett and Mulligan solely leading five films with strong / great buzz that will also compete for a BP nod. Add in other contenders like Vikander, Winslet, Wasikowska or Cotillard 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolioD1 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Cate Blanchett, carol Jennifer Lawrence, joy Carey Mulligan, suffragette saoirse ronan, brooklyn Alicia Vikander, danish girl I'm not sure if vikander is lead or supporting now but I'm going w/ it.

filmlover Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Everything about The Danish Girl points to Alicia Vikander being in another Felicity Jones in The Theory of Everything situation: female co-lead in what is mostly a two-hander opposite Eddie Redmayne. Putting her in lead sounds accurate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Putting her in lead sounds accurate. Felicity Jones deserved the lead placement though since the second half of Theory of Everything was a lot more about her character than Hawking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stripe Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 I think Blunt is in a better position to be nommed than Vikander. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
