Quote: What are the chances we'll have a three-way tie of songs from Once?
If this happens, can we get Mickey Rooney to do the honors? |

You get to vote for three original and three adapted. The first two are original and the third adapted, so you have one original and two adapted left. |

Hi folks. I've been in transit. I'm now back in the UK. I missed song and score, but no big deal. My pick for score, Atonement, and song, Once, look like getting in anyway.
Adapted Screenplay
Atonement
Beowulf
Zodiac
Alas not the Golden Compass. Should I have included Beowulf at the expense of Michael Clayton or The Kite Runner, say. The rendition of the epic poem was far from poetic, but I think some credit is due to their reworking the story in an interesting way, creatng some humour and internal dialogue and making a fist of what is really just a lot of macho bluster. We should be thankful that only fragments of our Anglo-Saxon literary heritage has survived.
Original Screenplay
Eastern Promises
The Lives Of Others
This Is England
I decided my credibility was shot enough without nominating Hot Fuzz. |

| I'm off to see NCfOM 2nite - so my remining nominations should have some validity, albeit remaining out of sync with the consensus. |
