as you were saying earlier, this is a race between cameron's "avatar" and hissism wife's "the hurt locker." it's a classic david and goliath race in hollywood. >> all righty. let's get to the actors. we have actor and leading in a role is jeff bridges for "crazy heart." >> what do you portend? >> it's a slam dunk for jeff bridges here. they love the big performances in this category. recently we saw daniel day lewis win for "there will be blood" and forest whitaker for king of scotland. here he sum btumbles around dru for two hours. so he can't really lose. >> that's great. let's get to leading actress right now. >> sidibe is so striking for people because she's never acted before this really, has she? >> no, she hasn't. she had been in a school play once. she's terrific in "precious." but, you know, if "precious" gets any award it will be in supporting category. there is a race between meryl streep and sandra bullock. meryl streep is at 16 nominations. sandra bullock's never been nominated. it's all about her this year. meryl streep, you know, it's been 27 years since she's won. a lot of people in hollywood ar
