I talked it out this morning with Jeffrey Wells and we are in agreement on potentially no surprises this year, unless “Parasite” and Bong Joon-ho, somehow, shock the world and win Picture and/or Director. Maybe Greta Gerwig will lose Adapted Screenplay? That’s a possibility. “1917” will win Best Picture, Best Actor will go to Joaquin Phoenix (“Joker”), Best Actress is Renee Zelwegger’s to lose for “Judy,” Supporting Actor Brad Pitt is a cinch to nab his first Oscar for “Once Upon A Time in Hollywood,” and, finally, Laura Dern will be crowned Best Supporting Actress for “Marriage Story.” Again, Sam Mendes winning Best Director for “1917” is the expected win, but I’m telling Wells not to discount Bong Joon-ho. Mendes already won the Best Director statuette in 2000 for “American Beauty, “ why not give it to Bong? The Oscars will again be hostless this year, does that mean the ceremony will be as breezy and speedy as last year’s? Cross your fingers, the last thing we need tonight is a plodding Oscar telecast [The Mp3] Contribute Hire me
