Irulan...
1. Why was Kelly Macdonald nominated in the BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS
category? She was the lead in this movie.

GarondoMarondo...
HBO might have suggested they put forth her name in the supporting
category so that she wouldn't have to compete with Helen Mirren.

Irulan...
OK, makes sense. Glad they both won.



Barry Margolin...
No idea, I didn't see it.


2. Why is this movie not eligible for the Oscars? Both Bill Nighy and Kelly
Macdonald have a good chance of winning. They are both superb actors.

Barry Margolin...
Was it shown on TV before being released in theatres? I think that
kills Oscar eligibility.


Why, why, why?

GarondoMarondo...
To be eligible for the Oscars a film must play for one week in both NYC
and LA, and it can not air on tv prior to doing so.

Irulan...
I didn't know that. Dang!


..
Garondo Marondo!
