Note the confident pick of Mickey Rourke for best actor, and the less confident pick of Taraji P. Henson for best supporting actress (though he still sees her as twice as likely as the next choice).
I have to say it'll be a shame if Sean Penn doesn't win for Milk, because he was fantastic.
Hellboy or Buttons for make-up???
