Leading the way with 13 nominations — including Best Picture, Best Actor (Brad Pitt), Best Supporting Actress (Taraji P. Henson), and Best Director (David Fincher) The Curious Case of Benjamin Button--"This is a great honor for the movie, and I'm especially happy for David Fincher, for without him there would be no Ben Button," says Pitt
Slumdog Millionaire came in second with 10 nominations, including Best Picture and Best Director (Danny Boyle).
As expected, Heath Ledger was recognized for his supporting role as the Joker in The Dark Knight, but a I was also hoping for a Best Picture nomination, and director Christopher Nolan Was shut out. As were Clint Eastwood and Leonardo DiCaprio...
I am happy for Fincher--and Of all the Best film helmers I will be rooting for him since Chris Nolan was passed over...
The Academy Awards will be handed out on Feb. 22
