''It's already going to be a crowded year.''
A couple weeks ago in Variety, Clayton Davis himself confirmed just how crowded this year will be.
His analysis of the Oscar race for Best Actor listed over 60 prospects. I imagine his picks are based on his speculation, the buzz he's heard and the reputation of the artists involved. Obviously, Davis' rankings will change as he (and other critics and pundits) actually sees the films in contention.
Among his predictions about performers from movies based on plays/musicals:
Davis puts Andrew Garfield (''tick, tick ... Boom!'') at No. 2, followed by Denzel Washington (''The Tragedy of Macbeth'') at No. 3. Two weeks ago, he had Peter Dinklage (''Cyrano'') at No. 9. You have to skim down to No. 30 to find Anthony Ramos (''In the Heights'') and then Ben Platt (''Dear Evan Hansen'') at No. 32. Among his Unranked: Ansel Elgort (''West Side Story'') and Max Harwood (''Everybody's Talking About Jamie'') . |
