I last checked in on the Best Actor Oscar race on Sept. 19th. Here's the new update for the category with the actor's previous position in parentheses. Performances from TFF #46 films are in Bold.
1) Adam Driver/Marriage Story (1)
2) Joaquin Phoenix/Joker (4)
3) Jonathan Pryce/The Two Popes (3)
4) Leonardo DiCaprio/Once Upon a Time in...Hollywood (2)
5) Antonio Banderas/Pain and Glory (5)
Possibles: Robert DeNiro/The Irishman, Eddie Murphy/Dolemite is My Name, Adam Sandler/Uncut Gems.
Comment: Recency helps. Buzz for Joaquin Phoenix's performance spiked with the film's release two weeks ago and he jumped from #4 to #2. Meanwhile, Leonardo DiCaprio, whose film opened in July. Robert DeNiro has also benefited from The Irishman finally being in front of some eyes with its acting as the opening night film for the New York Film Fest.
Truth is that Banderas, DeNiro and Murphy are in a virtual tie for that fifth spot.
I'll update Best director predictions on Monday.
