  1. LINCOLN TOPS OSCAR NOMINEES

    <strong><span style=&quot;color: black;">Steven Spielberg&rsquo;s</span></strong><span style="color: black;"> epic <em>Lincoln</em> leads the list of nominees for the <em>85th Annual Academy Awards</em>, nabbing 12 nods, including Best Picture, Best Director (Spielberg), Best Actor (<strong>Daniel Day-Lewis</strong>), Best Supporting Actress (<strong>Sally Field</strong>) and Best Supporting Actor (<strong>Tommy Lee Jones</strong>). Coming in close behind is <em>Life of Pi</em>, with 11 nominations. Competing against both films for Best Picture are <em>Silver Linings Playbook, Argo, Beasts of the Southern Wild, Django Unchained. Amour </em>and<em> Les Mis&eacute;rables</em>. The biggest snubs of the day came in the Best Director category. Although they were considered locks, both <strong>Ben Affleck</strong> and <strong>Kathryn Bigelow</strong> failed to get recognized, despite both of their films, <em>Argo</em> and <em>Zero Dark Thirty</em>, nabbing Best Picture nominations. (<em>Les Mis&eacute;rables</em> director <strong>Tom Hooper</strong> was also snubbed in the category, although he wasn&rsquo;t considered as much of a shoe-in.) Other interesting Oscar tidbits: all five nominees in the Best Supporting Actor category (Jones, <strong>Philip Seymour Hoffman, Christoph Waltz, Alan Arkin </strong>and<strong> Robert DeNiro</strong>) are past Oscar winners. <em>Amour&rsquo;s</em> <strong>Emmanuelle Riva</strong>, who is 85, is the oldest Best Actress nominee ever, while <em>Beasts of the Southern Wild&rsquo;s</em> <strong>Quvenzhan&eacute; [Qua-VEN-zha-ne] Wallis</strong> is the youngest Best Actress Oscar nominee ever at 9 (she was six when she shot the film). <strong>Leonardo DiCaprio</strong>, who received a Golden Globe nod for <em>Django Unchained</em>, failed to get a nomination. &nbsp;This year&rsquo;s Oscar host, <strong>Seth MacFarlane</strong> received a nod for Best Original Song for his <em>Ted</em> tune &ldquo;Everybody Needs A Best Friend.&rdquo; And <strong>Christopher Nolan&rsquo;s</strong> <em>The Dark Knight Rises</em> didn&rsquo;t get any nominations, not even in technical categories.</span><a href="http://oscar.go.com/nominees"><span style="color: #1155cc;">Click here</span></a><span style="color: black;"> for a complete list of nominees. The <em>85th Annual Academy Awards</em> airs Sunday, February 24th on ABC. </span>

  4. Toronto Film Festival Day 2 recap: The Master's domain!

    Here's a Day 2 recap from the Toronto International Film Festival. Everybody sees a different slate of movies each day here. Friday went this way: After the gamer-oriented slaughter of &ldquo;Dredd 3D,&rdquo; the fanciful and tricksy theatrics of director Joe Wright&rsquo;s &ldquo;Anna Karenina&rdquo; with Keira Knightley and Jude Law and the Wachowskis&rsquo; adaptation of &ldquo;Cloud Atlas,&rdquo; which takes place in six different time periods, the mind reeled and the cinematic appetite cried out for something straight and easy.

  8. Looking ahead to the Tony Awards: An off year for musicals, but 'Once' deserves to win

    <strong>NEW YORK &mdash;</strong> What with &quot;Ghost,""Lysistrata Jones" and other wearying disappointments, the 2012-13 Broadway season hardly will go down as a banner year for new American musicals. Indeed, should the best-musical Tony Award go, at Sunday night's ceremony, to a show other than "Once" or "Newsies" &mdash; the only remotely viable candidates for this most important of theatrical honors &mdash; the theater chatterati will be speechless and Tweetless. For a couple of seconds.
