Golden Globe Winner Predictions: Best Supporting Actor in a Motion Picture

The competition: Tom Cruise’s slimy executive (Tropic Thunder), Robert Downey Jr.’s dedicated actor (Tropic Thunder), Ralph Fiennes’ stubborn duke (The Duchess), Philip Seymour Hoffman’s priest (Doubt), and Heath Ledger’s villainous Joker (The Dark Knight).
For your information: Downey won a Globe for “Ally McBeal.” Cruise has won three Globes. Hoffman won in 2005 for “Capote.” Fiennes is also nominated for the TV movie “Bernard and Doris” this year.
Who should win: Ledger or Hoffman is fine by me.
Who will win: I don’t think anyone can beat Ledger, but if anyone could, I’d put my money on Downey.
