Oscar: Best Actor

Date:

February 25, 2007

Winner: Forest Whitaker
My Pick: Ryan Gosling – Half Nelson
Outside the Box: Leonardo DiCaprio for The Departed and not Blood Diamond, Sacha Baron Cohen – Borat and Toby Jones – Infamous

Comments:

I think that Last King of Scotland’s cinematography did a great job at framing the performance and no matter how much I like Whitaker’s body of work and acting skills, this so belonged to Ryan Gosling’ brilliant take.
