BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS

Nominees

Updated: 1/27/12

1. Octavia Spencer
(The Help) 		2. Jessica Chastain
(The Help) 		3. Berenice Bejo
(The Artist) 		4. Janet McTeer
(Albert Nobbs) 		5. Melissa McCarthy
(Bridesmaids)
One of the best performances of the year, hand's down. A career defining role. It's her Oscar to lose. Chastain had the best role in this film in my opinion, and her NYFCC win was huge since there are so many other actresses in the film. It's down to here and Spencer. AMPAS loves The Artist, and Bejo has her reward. A Nomination. McTeer is genius in this film, her and Close eat up the scenery. I love that she's been recognized here, it's much deserved. I love love love this nomination. It's completely off the beaten path of what the academy would go for. McCarthy was hilarious of course, and I'm happy a comedic performance like this got in.

Maybe Next Time...
