- Good. Dreamgirls didn't deserve a chance at Best Picture. Always nice to see Beyonce disappointed.
- Does this mean Eddie Murphy is going to win Best Supporting since DGs is unlikely to get much other than Best Song? Cause that would be unfortunate.
- Yay for the Pan's love :)
- No Volver for Best Foreign Film? I'm thinking it might actually be because of the crazy, nonsensical rules for entry into that category.
- Having seen both, Leo was much better in The Departed.

Hmm. Volver was the official submission from Spain and made it to the Foreign Film committee's shortlist (which in itself is new this year), but it got knocked out of the final five by a "smaller committee". I don't see anything in rule 14 about shortlists and committees. Strange indeed.
It was a (pleasant) surprise to see Water show up in the foreign film noms, since I distinctly remember seeing it in late 2005. Looks like it's a beneficiary of that crazy rule, which allows/requires screenings to occur between October 1 2005 and September 30 2006.
