Best Supporting actress predictions-2015

Recommended Posts











Variety has an interesting read about how studio tactics of pushing roles like Mara's and Vikander's, which are co-leads, in the supporting category, robs the chances of actual supporting/character roles.

 

It is perfectly understandable why the studios are doing it, especially in the case of Vikander, but that writer does make great points. Someone like Sarah Paulson, who may find it harder to get the same opportunities and roles as Mara and Vikander, may unfortunately and unfairly lose out on a nom in a category meant for a role like hers to co-leads. Lol these campaign politics.

So the Globes vetoed Mara and Vikander from contending for supporting actress. Might not mean anything in the end (Catherine Zeta-Jones was nominated for a lead Globe for Chicago, then won a supporting Oscar), but good to see, especially considering that the Globes have 10 Best Actress spots anyway (I'm guessing Lawrence will go comedy), but only 5 for supporting actresses. And I really hope JJL wins there now.

I like the thought that Rooney Mara could win a Best Supporting Actress while competing simultaneously at the Razzies with her sister in Worst Supporting Actress for their big budget 2015 flops. Maybe the Razzies will give them an honorary award just to call the Mara sisters their Olivia de Havilland and Joan Fontaine.
