tommy lee jones was brilliant in "lincoln." but i'm hearing robert de niro. >> he's my pick.s is the most difficult category. all five nominees have won before. it's been 21 years since de niro was even nominated. if he wins for, it will be his third win. it's the most relatable of all the the roles. i think it's the role that people can identify with. it reminds them of their own father. my dad is a sports fan. there were moments in this movie i thought of him. i think it will be r for harvey in his corner. >> if there's a dark horse, alan arkin because he's a producer. >> he's very good.

lincoln's sally field could derail anne hathaway's dream. and while robert deniro may not seem like an underdog, he can wipe that smile off of tommy lee jones. it would be easier to jackhammer abe lincoln off of mount rushmore than daniel day-lewis for taking home the award for best actor. hugh jackman, first-time nominee of "les miserables." . gets it. no actor playing an u.s. president has won an academy award. if daniel day lewis doesn't win the best actor, you'll hear the screams emanate to where you are. >> abc's oscars coverage begins tonight at 7:00 p.m. eastern. >>> and the forecast for the red carpet is positive for the day. let's get more on that from ginger zee. >> slightly windy. let's start in worcester, massachusetts, they have had already three feet this month. they're getting more, three to five inches. some snow in portland, maine. boston, just a little bit. temperatures behind it, aren't too terrible. pittsburgh, 36. 35 for detroit. until 3:00 p.m., los angeles has a wind warning, advisories out around the region. something to note if you plan on watching, some of the hair blowing around and some of the dresses, too. mornin

lincoln meets a lot of people. most people that he has not served with the congress. thaddeus stevens, everyone can remember him. per trade by tommy lee jones in the movie. this is the first meeting, they exchanged their first letters with congressman lincoln. so after the convention, he is touring massachusetts with his family. happy to be reunited with his family. every member of congress said they have all this contrary advice. take your family with you, it is good for your family to be in washington dc. leave your family at home, you don't want them getting infected by the swamp and dealing with anything associated with congress. well, lincoln actually did vote. first, mary taught in the children go with him. he believes that they are sort of getting in his way, mary also had her expectations as well. she was the most ambitious woman in the world. mary todd lincoln, because of an accident of biology and chronology was born during a time when women couldn't vote, much less participate in the political process. she said she would marry the man who had the best chance of being president. now, who on earth could decide she would'v

lincoln's world than washington's world. and after the civil war,ed thattuous stevens, you know, tommy lee jones we are configure-- reconfigured. they don't like state militias, the founders like state militias, their key party, lincoln's generation believe in the national government. >> rose: fought for it. >> of course, the u.s. grant but they also believe individuals need guns in their homes for self-protection because blacks can't count on local cops to protect them from the clan. and the national rifle association is founded after the civil war by a group of exunion army officers. and so the second amendment means something actually a little bit different after the civil war than it meant before. and that is just one of many examples of how america's unwritten constitution requires us to reinterpret earlier text in light of later ones in the same way, that for example, a christian might, i'm christian, might read the book of isaiah in light of the ministry of jesus. and reread that, a virgin shall give birth rather than a young woman. we read an earlier text in light of later one. so too we have to read he, him, his, abou

best supporting actor, tommy lee jones will not win for "lincoln" this. will go to robert de niro in "silver linings playbook," his best performance in years. hollywood loves the films, it's going to win here. for best director one of the biggest surprises. steven spielberg in "lincoln" will not win. i'm going to project ang lee for life of pi. he guarantee i will not be wrong, if i am i won't come back to work on monday. jenna: we need you, you have to come back to work. are you sure at the time at the foreign desk hasn't sort of skewed your thoughts on "argo"? i loved the movie but a lot of people you know -- >> the academy is very international, members from over 65 countries. they love "argo," they love life of pi. you'll not see any better predictions anywhere. jenna: i love this, the confidence, the name on the line, your job on the line. >> absolutely that's right. jenna: our swraou are viewers can follow you o. jennafollowers can follow you on twitter. >> take a look there, foxnews.com. jenna: we really appreciate your expertise. >> thank you so m

tommy lee jones as thaddeus stevens for "lincoln" was so spectacular that i think ultimately, he hase. but there's a wildcard in this, which is that robert de niro for "silver linings playbook" just cried on katie couric's talk show because the role touched him so much. >> it also underscored he can do anything. stek play any character and you believe him. >> yes. absolutely. he can be in any kind of movie. he goes from a meet the faulkers movieing to "heat" all the way to the "silver linings playbook" and always fantastic. it's been a long time since he's won. there is a chance he's just hot on tommy lee jones' heels. >> supporting actress? >> supporting actress i'm going to say is a lock again. anne hathaway because she nails that song, and i think really when this whole award season started she dreamed a dream that sometime she would have time to take a nap. that girl has been busy. >> she's a workaholic. >> her role is very short in the movie. but that moment when she sings that kind of cements a real distinction you know, for her. >> absolutely. it just captivated the world. you

i think either tommy lee jones who plays thaddeus stevens in "lincoln," or it could go to robert de nirolver linings playbook." they're all winners. we'll see who picks up their second oscar tonight. >> what about seth mcfarlane? i have to say the promos i thought were particularly good and just clever and fun. how do you think he'll deliver as host? >> a lot of people may not know who he is. he's the creator of "family guy," he made "tag," the highest grossing movie that came out this year. he was selected so particularly younger guys tune into the academy awards. he did that with john stewart, didn't do that so well, did that with anne hathaway and james franco. the academy has the a mixed result when they go for younger, but i think he has a good chance of being funny. >> guys have like a gross humor? is that what you're trying to say? gross kind of dirty humor? >> yeah. he has kind of a dirty sense of humor. they want the 18 to 49-year-olds to watch. >> we may drop in. have fun. >> thank you so much. >>> florida after the tea party, does the sunshine state have buyer's remorse? so, b

i think a lot of people grog to root for "lincoln" because it's our president, the country's history. and everybody is going to say daniel day lewis and tommy jones and sally field. their movie has performances about real people, not history. people next door, down the street. >> that's what our picture is. it's real people. my son has struggled with moody's order. i wrote this for five years. and i have hundreds of people. i just had your producer anne said to me tell me about somebody she knows. a young man is suicidal and bipolar and the family's life is turned upside down. it touches millions of people. you know when i don't meet each other, you know when you say yes, i know you, and we've been down this road together, that's a fight millions of families fight every day. >> a lot of people my age and older because of their religious beliefs or whatever, they stopped going to the movies, too much violence, too much sex. i'm going to say attend of the show, you got to go back to the movies for this. you'll remember why movies were great. >> i like to make movies with a lot of heart, and those are my favorite films. >> "the fighter." >> "t
