I also loved Viola Davis this year but Meryl was better imo) Jonah Hill – Moneyball (Same for the Brad Pitt one, not seen any of these other nominees) Jessica Chastain – The Help (I actually thought she was better than Octavia, the scene where she loses the baby is so sad. Melissa McCarthy is always great too so yay at her getting an Oscar nomination ) Woody Allen – Midnight in Paris (Quite a good little story and I remember loving it at the time, haven't seen it since it was out in cinemas though!) I like The Help the most out of all the nominees here but also really like Midnight In Paris

(Also seen the Swedish original of "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" but not the Rooney Mara version!)
