No Country for Old Men
Prospects: Up
The Coen brothers' drama is picking up steam with Best Picture wins from
four groups, including the National Board of Review and the New York
critics.
American Gangster
Prospects: Down
Ridley Scott's crime saga did eke out a spot on the Broadcast Film
Critics' top 10 list. But it was otherwise MIA from the first round of
prizes.
Atonement
Prospects: ?
The period piece has earned mostly strong reviews and promising box
office. But a few high-profile critical slams (like one from The New
York Times) left a big sting.
Amy Ryan
Prospects: Up
Gone Baby Gone's fierce baby-mama is the season's biggest winner so far,
racking up six of the first seven Best Supporting Actress honors.
Juno
Prospects: Up
The quirky pregnancy comedy's terrific reviews led to one of the highest
opening-weekend per-theater averages this year. Its first trimester is
going swimmingly.
