I think Ray Milland will still win, his performance is one of the only performances from the 40s that is just as powerful now as it is then, I liked Barrault quite a lot infact, I will choose him although I could be wrong, my brain says Barrault, in a truly unique performance.
1)Jean Louis Barrault 2)Cornel Wilde 3)Edward G Robinson 4)James Mason 5)Trevor Howard
I'm almost definitely picking Barrault as my #1, he's my pick for best actor over Milland even. Butr there are a couple of these I still wanna see before I make my official predictions.
Well I will give you a bit of a hand Matt, I dont think Howard will win, I also think Mason is a risky choice because it is one of his first film performances that was noticed, Mason seemed to be an actor that was in his prime in the 50s as opposed to learning the ropes.
Tsutomu Yamazaki made that film for me as he struck the right tone. Every time Yamazaki comes on the screen though he makes the film worth watching with his moving yet understated portrayal of a mentor.
Where much of Changeling is bizarrely muted in tone Harner enlivens it with his portrayal of a psychopath. His break down scene at the end is particularly remarkable.

James Mason should get a great score, this is what got his A+ film career going.
Louis would you say that Pierre Brasseur was supporting or co lead?.
I have no idea about ANY of these.

Louis, have you seen the latest Godzilla trailer? What are your thoughts on it?
Personally, I think it's one of them best trailers I have seen in a long time and I am super pumped for the movie now
Looks very promising and seems like it will give the Godzilla the size it deserves.
