Sure Oscar Winners

[andyfox]

Clarkmeister's post about Oscar betting lines made me think that there is no one who I'm sure will win the Oscar this year. (Chris Cooper seems the most likely.) I can remember the following performances that, when I saw them, I was sure they would win:

-John Gielgud in Arthur

-Angelica Huston in Prizzi's Honor

-Al Pacino in Scent of a Woman

-Dustin Hoffman in Rainman

-Judy Dench in Shakespeare in Love

-Joe Pesci in Goodfellas

-Kevin Spacey in The Usual Suspects

-Marlon Brando in The Godfather
