Tomorrow, ten shortlists for the Academy Awards will be revealed. I’ve always enjoyed this announcement, especially since it gives me an idea of the films that I need to track down and start screening ahead of nominations. Fortunately, there’s plenty of time this year, with more than six weeks until nominations are unveiled. I haven’t made official predictions in the past, but here are my bets for the finalists in seven categories. I won’t attempt any guesses for the three shorts races, which I hope to get to know much more intimately once these lists are out there.
