AWARDS SEASON 1989
At the Awards ceremonies in early 1990, celebrating the cinematic performances of 1989, the big winners were Daniel Day-Lewis and Jessica Tandy for their respective roles in "My Left Foot" and "Driving Miss Daisy". But Tandy had to wait until the following year to collect her BAFTA for the same role, while Day-Lewis lost out to Tom Cruise in "Born On The Fourth of July" at the Golden Globes. Michelle Pfeiffer picked up two awards for "The Fabulous Baker Boys" and "Dangerous Liaisons", while Denzel Washington's turn in "Glory" won two of the three Supporting Actor statues up for grabs. It was closer in the Supporting Actress category where Brenda Fricker ("My Left Foot") and Julia Roberts ("Steel Magnolias") took the OSCAR and Golden Globe respectively.
In total, 44 actors and actresses were nominated in 1989.

Oscar Winners 2008 (February 2009 ceremony)
So most of the predictions came true - "Slumdog Millionaire" almost swept the board at the Oscars, leaving the 13 nominations of "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" in its wake. I really thought the Academy might end up giving Best Picture to "Button" while praising "Slumdog" director Danny Boyle, as history says that the epic Americana often takes home the top prize.
Had I been a betting man I would have lost money on Best Actor where the exceptional Sean Penn deservedly picked up his second trophy in a matter of years, ahead of sentimental favourite, Mickey Rourke in "The Wrestler".

Oscar Nominations 2008 (February 2009 ceremony)
All the guessing is over! The nominations for the 81st Academy Awards have been announced, and with only one month until the ceremony, the predictions can start for who will actually go home with the Oscars!
With the most nods, it looks like a straight battle between "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" and "Slumdog Millionaire" for Best Picture. I have a feeling that this could be one of those rare years when the Picture and Director Oscars go to different films. What price Best Picture for "Benjamin Button" while rewarding the vitality of Danny Boyle's direction of "Slumdog Millionaire"?

Ten Years of Awards: Oscar and Golden Globe Acting nominations from 1999-2008
The past decade, from 1999-2008, represents a pretty interesting and vital time in cinema history. In terms of who the Oscars and Golden Globes chose to nominate in their various acting categories, only 214 performers have the distinction of being a "nominee" or "winner" to boost their box office potential.
I came up with a points system to represent the combination of Best Actor / Actress and Best Supporting Actor / Actress wins and nominations that could have been accrued from both the Oscar and Golden Globe ceremonies. I believe even an Oscar nomination holds more kudos than a victory at the Globes (with a Globe Best Actor victory just about having the higher value than an Oscar Supporting nod!), so my points scale is as follows:
20 points - Oscar WIN for Best Actor / Actress
17 points - Oscar WIN for Best Supporting Actor / Actress
15 points - Oscar NOMINATION for Best Actor / Actress
13 points - Golden Globe WIN for Best Actor / Actress
12 points - Oscar NOMINATION for Best Supporting Actor / Actress
10 points - Golden Globe WIN for Best Supporting Actor / Actress
8 points - Golden Globe NOMINATION for Best Actor / Actress
5 points - Golden Globe NOMINATION for Best Supporting Actor / Actress
When you tally up the points, can you guess who has had the most Hollywood acclaim in the past decade? No, you probably can't!
Well, top of the list is Renee Zellweger! Her 107 points tally as follows:
In 2000
* 13 points
GLOBES WIN Best Actress (Musical or Comedy)
NURSE BETTY
In 2001
* 8 points
GLOBES NOM Best Actress (Musical or Comedy)
BRIDGET JONES' DIARY
* 15 points
OSCAR NOM Best Actress
BRIDGET JONES' DIARY
In 2002
* 13 points
GLOBES WIN Best Actress (Musical or Comedy)
CHICAGO
* 15 points
OSCAR NOM Best Actress
CHICAGO
In 2003
* 10 points
GLOBES NOM Best Supporting Actress
COLD MOUNTAIN
* 17 points
OSCAR WIN Best Supporting Actress
COLD MOUNTAIN
In 2004
* 8 points
GLOBES NOM Best Actress (Musical or Comedy)
BRIDGET JONES: THE EDGE OF REASON
In 2006
* 8 points
GLOBES NOM Best Actress (Musical or Comedy)
MISS POTTER
But is she really top of the tree at the start of 2009? Most of her awards success was between 2000-2003.
Right now in Hollywood, I believe there are certain actors and actresses who are "hot" and most likely to gain awards success. Many others are on the down slide, even if they had success a few years ago. How about those "one hit wonders" who had a great role, scooped up every award going, but seem destined to never repeat the acclaim? Halle Berry in "Monster's Ball" for example?
Here is my full pecking order:
Actresses Moving Up!
CATE BLANCHETT - 100 points
MERYL STREEP - 97 points
KATE WINSLET - 76 points

GLOBES NOM Best Actress (Musical or Comedy)
MISS POTTER
But is she really top of the tree at the start of 2009? Most of her awards success was between 2000-2003.
Right now in Hollywood, I believe there are certain actors and actresses who are "hot" and most likely to gain awards success. Many others are on the down slide, even if they had success a few years ago. How about those "one hit wonders" who had a great role, scooped up every award going, but seem destined to never repeat the acclaim? Halle Berry in "Monster's Ball" for example?

Golden Globe Nominated Films Since 2000
At the nine Golden Globes ceremonies held from 2000-2008 (including the awards to be given out in January 2009) there were 300 films receiving a combined 611 Golden Globe nominations.
Unlike the Oscars with a whole raft of production awards on offer, the Golden Globes has a smaller number of statues to dish out. However, due to the distinction between 'Drama' and 'Musical or Comedy' there are two additional acting categories.
The Best Picture (for both the 'Drama' and the 'Musical or Comedy' categories) nominees are in bold type, with the Best Pictures of the year also underlined. The director and year of the movie is listed afterwards:
