There is so much desire to reward Julianne Moore this year, that no panorama is contemplated other than that of the actress receiving the award. Oscar.
It does not seem that any of the four remaining applicants can compete with the desire of the Hollywood Academy to compensate an actress who should already have a statuette at home.
After the screening of "Maps to the Stars" at the last Cannes Film Festival, people began to talk about the possibilities of Julianne Moore. Finally, the film did not participate in the race, since the cost of promoting the film so that it was in the cost was too high for a production company that saw that the film would not be to the liking of academics.
After knowing the news that Julianne Moore ran out of Oscar options, the experts soon praised another of his works, the one he carries out in «Still Alice«. Certainly a great job, but one for which I would not be such a favorite if I already had a statuette at home.
For the moment it has already been done with Globo de Oro, Critics' Choice and SAG, in addition to a large number of awards from different critical associations, so the Oscar is more than sung for her.
If it weren't for these reasons and maybe a few more, Julianne Moore would have a tough competitor on Rosamund pike. The actress of «Gone Girl«, Despite being practically a stranger, she has dazzled the critics and has finally been the only one to get a nomination in a film that promised a lot in the face of the Oscars, but in the end the academics have made the void.
Nice gesture with Marion Cotillard that once again aspires to the Oscar with a non-English-speaking film, but the award for her is that, the nomination. Unlike Julianne Moore, she already owns a statuette and is unlikely to win a second for this role in «Two Days, One Night»And more in a year in which everything seems decided.
Something similar is the case of Reese Witherspoon. Already an Oscar winner, she has no options this year, although academics have wanted to highlight her role in «It«.
Felicity Jones She could have had some option in best supporting actress, although not many in front of Patricia Arquette, but they have finally promoted her as a protagonist. His role in «The Theory of Everything»Is in the shadow of Eddie Redmayne and does not have enough dramatic weight in the film to win an Oscar, and even less as a principal.
