Oscars® 2008: Οι υποψηφιότητες

Ανακοινώθηκαν μόλις οι υποψηφιότητες για τα 80α Όσκαρ. Χωρίς εκπλήξεις, με το Atonement να κερδίζει τη θέση για την οποία ξεκίνησε φαβορί και έφτασε να κυνηγάει καταϊδρωμένο για κάποιους. Και το Into the Wild να μη κερδίζει υποψηφιότητα ούτε στη κατηγορία του τραγουδιού, όπου ξέσκισε το.. Enchanted. No Country for Old Men (8) και There Will Be Blood (8) οδηγούν τη κούρσα, όπως θα κατάλαβες τόσους μήνες που τα 'χουμε στα features.
