David Poland takes his initial stab...

My old boss is at the "X Weeks to Oscar" game for 2007. His column offers little more than we were able to ascertain nearly four months ago, though the first four graphs are the real news of the season thusfar: no one wants to be anointed the Oscar "frontrunner" the year after "Dreamgirls" missed and a passionless campaign for "The Departed" walked out of the Kodak a winner.


But...lessons lacking...there is Dave, offering up LOCKS. "Oy," indeed.


I'm not touching this stuff in depth for another month at least, but there will be updated predictions and charts on July 1. For those at all concerned.
