I did like the Ryan Gossling nomination for Best Actor for Half Nelson... he is cool... and Gene Shallot, the Today Show critic a few months back could not stop raving about that movie, and Gene never raves about movies. 

I also liked the nomination for the little girl in Little Miss Sunshine, she ties Tatum in youngest person to be nominated. 

But Volver, not that I have watched it, got no nominations for Foreign Film nor director for Pedro Almodovar... Penelope Cruz did get it. 

But it is the Mexican year... Bush forget your attempts at immigration laws...
