«The Imitation Game»Can easily become the great loser of this next edition of the Academy Awards.
Despite having garnered eight nominations, including some of the most important for best picture, best direction, best adapted screenplay or two in acting categories, it seems that it has nothing to do in the queen category compared to "Boyhood" and "Birdman."
The same happens with the section of best direction, Morten Tyldum is not an option facing two powerful works such as those carried out by Richard Linklater and Alejandro González Iñarritu.
In the best actor category everything is between Eddie Redmayne and Michael Keaton, so Benedict Cumberbatch he will have to wait to win a statuette. Same panorama for Keira Knightley in a category that Patricia Arquette has already sentenced.
Best cut could go perfectly for "Boyhood" has just won the Oscar for best film, with the clear intention of the Academy to inflate its record and if not, "Whiplash" is the great favorite for this award.
Artistic direction could perfectly go to "The Grand Budapest Hotel", although "Into the Woods" and "Mr. Turner "would also be worthy winners, so the options of" The Imitation Game "go through the sections of best adapted script and best soundtrack.
The adapted screenplay award is anyone's guess, since the great favorite "Whiplash" has competed throughout the awards season as an original and that could take its toll, "The Theory of Everything" is another of the film's rivals. Morten Tyldum after being imposed in the Bafta.
Soundtrack seems affordable for "The Imitation Game", Alexandre Desplat has received his seventh and eighth nominations this year and for the moment he has not received the Oscar, this could be his year, although it seems more feasible that they will give it to him for "The Grand Budapest Hotel ».
