Jennifer Lawrence - American Hustle |
| |
This is the tightest category at the moment. The race is wide open with the top two being a virtual unknown and THE star of the moment. Our staff is evenly split on who the favorite is in the category. Tie goes to the superstar. |

Lupita Nyong'o - 12 Years a Slave |
| |
This may be the only time in her career that Lupita Nyong'o is considered the equal of Jennifer Lawrence. Don't worry about being second to her, Lupita. You're in good company...with every other working actress. |

June Squibb - Nebraska |
| |
There are two remarkable aspects to her career. The first is that she was nominated for an Oscar at the age of 74. The second is that she didn't work in her first movie until she was 60. She is the Grandma Moses of thespians. |

Julia Roberts - August: Osage County |
| |
Oddly, the Hollywood royalty from Georgia had not been nominated since she won for Erin Brockovich in 2001. She won't win again, but her second nomination since the George Herbert Bush administration is a pleasant outcome for a smallish film. |

Sally Hawkins - Blue Jasmine |
| |
In the immortal words of Soundgarden, Ms. Hawkins is feeling Outshined. Stupid sexy Cate Blanchett. |
