UNTITLED STEVEN SPIELBERG PROJECT
Could be a contender... if Spielberg handles the aftermath of the murder of Israeli athletes at the 1972 Olympics in Munich with a combination of history and sensitivity he's mustered before. Unless... the thriller's ultratight schedule (it's just begun filming) creates a rushed finished project. (Dec. 23)

WALK THE LINE

Could be a contender... if, like Ray, this look at Johnny Cash's early years, starring Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon, provides a vividly realistic view of the life of a musical legend. Unless... the film doesn't also contain Ray's sense of social significance. (Nov. 18)
