Best Picture
Jane Campion’s “The Power of the Dog” seems to have taken pole position in the best picture race. Campion won a screenplay Oscar at the 1994 ceremony for “The Piano,” which was also nominated for best pic (it lost to “Schindler’s List.”). Early front-runner “Belfast” should also make the ballot. The Kenneth Branagh memoir has been gaining fans since its fall festival run. Another festival favorite that has shown staying power is Siân Heder’s “Coda,” a Sundance hit which delivers inspiration without the saccharine. Another inspirational-hold-the-saccharine film, “King Richard,” should also land on the best picture ballot. The story of tennis superstars Venus and Serena Williams, and how their father helped pave the way for their success is a tale that touches every parent. Maggie Gyllenhaal tackles a taboo side of motherhood in “The Lost Daughter,” but the rookie director’s star, Olivia Colman, will most likely be recognized.
