Sandra Bullock - The Blind Side 73%

One of the top-grossing Hollywood actresses of the 1990s, "America's sweetheart" Sandra Bullock rose to fame with roles as the quintessential yet modern-day version of the girl-next-door – smart, capable, witty; one who triumphs in the face of impossible scenarios. Her can-do energy was at the center of her career breakout as Annie, the spunky passenger on a runaway bus in “Speed” (1994), after which her endearing gutsiness and charm made her a romantic comedy favorite in films like “While You Were Sleeping” (1995) and “Forces of Nature” (1999). At her peak, she was so beloved that she gave even Julia Roberts a run for her money as box office queen. To prove her versatility, Bullock regularly detoured into serious dramas like “Infamous” (2006) and the occasional edge-of-your seat thriller like “Premonition” (2007). Unfortunately, with the exception of the Academy Award-winning “Crash” (2002), the actress attracted the most fan devotion for sparkling in comedies like “Miss Congeniality” (2002), where she lit up the screen with her quirky personality and earthy, approachable beauty. Bullock was born July 26, 1964 in Arlington, VA. As the daughter of a German opera singer mother and a voice coach father, Bullock was raised around show business, often joining her mother on concert tours of Europe from the time she was very young. She spent most of her pre-teen years in Nuremburg, Germany, where she sang with a children’s choir. By the time the family settled outside Washington, D.C., the teenage Bullock – with her outgoing, vibrant, personality – leaned more towards acting. She studied at East Carolina University’s drama department in Greenville before moving to New York City to study with Sanford Meisner at the Neighborhood Playhouse in 1986. A well-reviewed off-Broadway performance in 1988 helped Bullock secure an agent and begin her screen career in supporting parts for TV movies like "Bionic Showdown: The Six Million Dollar Man and the Bionic Woman" (NBC, 1989) and "The Preppie Murder" (ABC, 1989). After snagging her first lead role in the small indie "Who Shot Patakango?" (1989), Bullock’s career began to excel and she moved to Los Angeles. Ironically, Bullock’s first major acting gig in Los Angeles was a starring role as ambitious young executive Tess McGill in the New York-set sitcom, "Working Girl" (NBC, 1990), based on the popular film starring Melanie Griffith and Harrison Ford. She co-starred opposite Tate Donovan in the romantic comedy "Love Potion No. 9" (1992) and delivered a superb performance as a cynical feminist artist in the indie film "When the Party's Over" (1992) before getting her first major exposure with "Demolition Man” (1993). Bullock turned heads with her supporting role as a feisty LAPD lieutenant and partner of Sylvester Stallone in the dystopian actioner before turning around to give a lesser-seen but thoroughly charming supporting performance as a quirky Southern belle trying to make it in Nashville in Peter Bogdanovich's "The Thing Called Love" (1993). But Bullock’s first taste of movie stardom came with the blockbuster "Speed" (1994), in which she played Annie, the reluctant but plucky driver of a runaway bus opposite Keanu Reeves. Her innate wit, intelligence and general likeability helped elevate what could have been just a standard testosterone-fueled action picture, allowing her to drive off with the film's best notices. Her palpable on-screen chemistry with the handsome but stoic leading man also served her well, as both she and Reeves became a kind of a screen couple ideal in filmgoers’ minds – much like Julia Roberts and Richard Gere had four years before with “Pretty Woman” (1990). And like that coupling, it would take years for Reeves and Bullock to reunite on-screen, but fans would never forget their magnetism together. In a part originally intended for the overpriced Demi Moore, Bullock headlined the romantic comedy "While You Were Sleeping" (1995), earning a Golden Globe nomination for portraying another “regular gal with big dreams” in the surprise hit co-starring Bill Pullman and Peter Gallagher as the other points of a love triangle. Now a full-fledged movie star with a run of hits, she was equally adept as a hapless computer operator stumbling onto a major conspiracy in the thriller "The Net" (1995). Bullock rebounded from the pallid caper comedy "Two If By Sea" (1996) with a dramatic supporting turn as a law student who finds herself attracted to a married Southern lawyer (Matthew McConaughey) she is assisting in Joel Schumacher's "A Time to Kill" (1996), based on the John Grisham bestseller. While she and McConaughey became fast and lasting friends, both denied endless speculation of a romantic relationship. Canoodling tabloid photos surfacing at the time seemed to indicate the opposite, but there was no doubt the two were together on and off for years. Unfortunately, Richard Attenborough's "In Love and War" (1996), based on the real-life romance between author Ernest Hemingway (Chris O'Donnell) and the nurse he fictionalized in A Farewell to Arms proved a disappointment, with the actress miscast as the slightly older woman. Equally disappointing was the inevitable – and ultimately misguided – sequel, "Speed 2: Cruise Control" (1997), which teamed Bullock with Jason Patric on a luxury liner taken over by a madman. The absence of Reeves only served to sink the bloated project even further. Despite the high-profile disaster, Bullock was hardly blamed, as she continued to earn a reputation as a fun-loving type who did not suffer fools gladly. Her mixture of brazenness and caginess only served to warm the hearts of audiences who seemed to forgive her anything. She further entrenched herself in Hollywood – by way of her adopted home of Austin, TX – by writing, producing, directing and co-starring opposite co-producer McConaughey in "Making Sandwiches" (1997), a 40-minute short screened at the Sundance Film Festival. As executive producer of the romantic drama "Hope Floats" (1998), she proved she had an eye for the type of Everywoman roles that had earned her kudos in the past, but with an eye toward deepening her appeal with more risky roles for the future. On the power of her name alone, the forgettable drama generated respectable box office receipts. Later that year, Bullock lent her voice to the character of Miriam in DreamWorks animated biblical tale "The Prince of Egypt" and co-starred with Nicole Kidman as sisters who use witchcraft to solve their romantic problems in "Practical Magic," which she also co-executive produced. Bullock teamed with Ben Affleck in the successful romantic road comedy "Forces of Nature" (1999), but her producing efforts misfired with "Gun Shy" (2000). Neither she nor her co-star Liam Neeson could save the awkward and unfunny crime comedy. She returned to form later that year as a New York writer and party girl sentenced to "28 Days" (2000) of rehab, capably portraying both the hard-to-watch human weakness as well as humor of her addict characterization. Under her Fortis Productions banner, Bullock found time to launch the successful sitcom “George Lopez” in 2002, serving as the series executive producer after discovering Lopez in 2000. She was concerned about the lack of Hispanic-oriented sitcoms on American television and pushed to get a show on air starring Hispanics without being exclusively about their ethnicity. The show was a huge success for everyone involved and enjoyed a five year run. Back on the big screen, she impressed moviegoers with a turn as a tomboyish streetwise FBI agent posing as a polished beauty queen in the hit comedy "Miss Congeniality" (2002). Paired with Benjamin Bratt, Bullock further proved a delightful comedienne, flaunting her character's newfound grace with the appropriate gracelessness and earning another Golden Globe nomination in the process. Playing a different type of law enforcement agent, Bullock starred as a homicide detective in the psychological thriller "Murder by Numbers" (2002) and returned to lighter fare as a Southern playwright in the film adaptation of the bestseller "Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood" (2002). She next went back to her romantic comedy roots, producing and starring with Hugh Grant in the underwhelming "Two Weeks Notice" (2002) as the aide-de-camp to a reckless mogul who does not appreciate the doting care she gives him. At this point in her career, Bullock was entering dangerous Doris Day territory, playing winsome, klutzy roles that were better suited for someone younger. However, her very brief turn in the racially charged, multi-plot drama "Crash" (2005) was a step in the right direction, with Bullock playing a middle-aged L.A. woman of privilege who, after a traumatic carjacking, angrily acts out on all of her worst prejudices and racial fears. The film went on to earn Best Picture of the Year at the Academy Awards. In 2005, the sweetheart who had romanced some of her handsome co-stars – including McConaughey, one-time fiancé Tate Donovan whom she dated for four years, and the younger Ryan Gosling whom she met on the set of “Murder by Numbers” – finally found her soulmate in an unlikely, tattooed match. In July 2005, she married motorcycle icon Jesse James after dating for two years, surprising fans by becoming a stepmother to James’ daughter from a previous marriage. While her personal life was better than ever, she revived one of her biggest comedy hits with the sequel "Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous" (2005), this time posing as a Las Vegas showgirl. While not as big a hit as its predecessor, it returned respectable box office. Taking a more serious turn, she portrayed author Harper Lee, friend of Truman Capote (Toby Jones), in the biopic "Infamous" (2006). Unfortunately, the film suffered from being released too close to a similar project on the infamous writer, “Capote” (2005). To the delight of filmgoing romantics everywhere, Bullock reunited with "Speed" co-star Reeves after 12 years in the romantic drama "The Lake House" (2006). Many thought the film about strangers who fall in love via letters they exchange through a mailbox that mysteriously bridges time an odd choice for their onscreen reunion, but the film was nevertheless a moderate success. In “Premonition” (2007), Bullock held up an otherwise mediocre thriller with her strong performance as a wife and mother living the perfect domestic life but nonetheless driven mad by foreknowledge of impending events, including the tragic death of her husband (Julian McMahon) in a car accident. Showing no signs of leaving her comedy career behind, Bullock brought the appropriate befuddled exasperation to her starring role as a book editor who marries her Canadian assistant (Ryan Reynolds) to facilitate his legal status but has to then maintain the appearance of a real married couple in “The Proposal” (2009). She returned to the producer’s chair with another comedy, “All About Steve” (2009), in which she also portrayed an obnoxious romantic suitor whose wooing efforts border on stalking. Unfortunately, the film was a financial and critical bomb, leading many to question if Bullock's career could survive a project that most deemed an utter embarrassment. To make things more difficult, she and James petitioned the court to gain permanent custody of James' daughter, Sunny, after the child’s mother, former porn star Janine Lindemulder, was arrested and jailed six months for tax evasion. At least on Lindemulder’s side, the battle played out in the press, as the adult movie actress accused “America’s sweetheart” of ulterior motives. For her part, Bullock and James let the lawyers do the talking. By the end of an eventful year, the critical reception for Bullock’s third release of 2009, “The Blind Side" was decidingly more positive than it had been for her previous two romantic comedies. With a southern accent and dyed blonde hair, Bullock sparkled in the feel-good biopic of a southern family who takes in a homeless African-American youngster and ultimately helps him fulfill his potential as an All-American football star.

AVATAR takes us to a spectacular world beyond imagination, where a reluctant hero embarks on an epic adventure, ultimately fighting to save the alien world he has learned to call home. James Cameron, the Oscar-winning director of "Titanic," first conceived the film 15 years ago, when the means to realize his vision did not exist yet. Now, after four years of production, AVATAR, a live action film with a new generation of special effects, delivers a fully immersive cinematic experience of a new kind, where the revolutionary technology invented to make the film disappears into the emotion of the characters and the sweep of the story. We enter the alien world through the eyes of Jake Sully, a former Marine confined to a wheelchair. But despite his broken body, Jake is still a warrior at heart. He is recruited to travel light years to the human outpost on Pandora, where corporations are mining a rare mineral that is the key to solving Earth's energy crisis. Because the atmosphere of Pandora is toxic, they have created the Avatar Program, in which human "drivers" have their consciousness linked to an avatar, a remotely-controlled biological body that can survive in the lethal air. These avatars are genetically engineered hybrids of human DNA mixed with DNA from the natives of Pandora... the Na'vi. Reborn in his avatar form, Jake can walk again. He is given a mission to infiltrate the Na'vi, who have become a major obstacle to mining the precious ore. But a beautiful Na'vi female, Neytiri, saves Jake's life, and this changes everything. Jake is taken in by her clan, and learns to become one of them, which involves many tests and adventures. As Jake's relationship with his reluctant teacher Neytiri deepens, he learns to respect the Na'vi way and finally takes his place among them. Soon he will face the ultimate test as he leads them in an epic battle that will decide nothing less than the fate of an entire world.

An audacious visionary who developed new film technologies midstream in order to turn his creative visions into film reality, director James Cameron was credited with single-handedly resurrecting a once-dead science fiction genre, thanks to the timeless success of “The Terminator” (1984) and “Aliens” (1986). But because of his legendary temper and determination on set, Cameron also became known as one of the most difficult directors to work for, genius be damned. While it was true that he drove himself and his crews to the brink of exhaustion, no one could dispute his passion for blending film and technology, while effortlessly creating well-crafted stories and three dimensional characters. Despite his penchant for aliens and space, it was “Titanic” (1997) – a period romance based on a historical event – that cemented Cameron as a director for the ages. In fact, “Titanic” was a seminal event in cinema in terms of size, scope and commercial success. The film made Cameron a legend, despite the production nearly destroying him. In the end, however, Cameron laid claim to being one of the most proficient, admired and, above all, successful directors in Hollywood history.

Jeff Bridges - 38%

Nomination:
* Best Actor - Crazy Heart
To call Jeff Bridges "the most underappreciated great actor of his generation," as did Janet Maslin in her The New York Times review of "American Heart" (1992), became something of a cliché in contemporary film criticism. Hailed for his relaxed, naturalistic performance style, Bridges remained an A-list leading man for over four decades without the benefit of ever having been a box-office champ. Furthermore, Bridges accomplished this feat without ever having to resort to the broad self-parody of such contemporaries as Al Pacino, Jack Nicholson and Robert De Niro. Basically a character actor with leading man looks, Bridges built his reputation with a wide assortment of parts in various genres. Much like the late, great Spencer Tracy, however, Bridges’ greatest talent was his ability to take on complex, morally ambiguous characters with such ease that people accused him of playing himself. The son of famed actor Lloyd Bridges and the younger brother of actor Beau Bridges, Jeffrey Leon Bridges was born on Dec. 4, 1949, in Los Angeles, CA. Destined by blood to go into the family profession, Jeff Bridges made his first screen appearance at the tender age of four months, playing Jane Greer's infant son in "The Company She Keeps" (1950). Growing up, he and his brother Beau got some valuable early acting experience playing drowning victims and the like on their father Lloyd's popular undersea adventure series, "Sea Hunt" (Synd., 1957-1961). As Bridges recalled to The London Times in 1999: "[My dad would] always say, 'Do you want this part? You'll be gone from school for a couple of weeks.' And when you're eight years old, it's kind of fun." The brothers also popped up occasionally on their father’s subsequent TV venture, "The Lloyd Bridges Show" (CBS, 1962-63). Fun and games aside, however, the experience of seeing their father become typecast after “Sea Hunt” also taught the junior Bridges a valuable lesson about diversifying one’s roles. In 1971, Bridges joined the ensemble cast of director Peter Bogdanovich’s “The Last Picture Show" – an adaptation of the award-winning novel by Larry McMurtry. A coming of age tale set a small Texas town in the 1950s, “Picture Show” earned the 23-year-old Bridges his first Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor for his role as the boyishly charming Duane Jackson. Bridges further enhanced his image in a series of quality projects, beginning with John Huston's "Fat City" (1972) as a struggling boxer, and Robert Benton's directorial debut, "Bad Company" (1972), in which he played a likable, if untrustworthy con artist who drifts into lawlessness in the post-Civil War west. The following year, Bridges brought a three-dimensional believability to his portrayal of moonshining stock-car racing legend Junior Jackson in "The Last American Hero" (1973). Later that year, Bridges subsequently stood tall amidst such heavy hitters as Robert Ryan, Fredric March and Lee Marvin in John Frankenheimer's filmic adaptation of Eugene O’Neill’s "The Iceman Cometh” (1973). Having grown in stature with each successive picture, Bridges was a revelation in Michael Cimino's directorial debut, "Thunderbolt and Lightfoot" (1974). Demonstrating his impressive acting range while exuding an effortless screen charisma, Bridges wound up stealing the picture right out from under its star, Clint Eastwood. When “Thunderbolt and Lightfoot” earned Bridges another Best Supporting Actor nod, predictions abounded that the young actor would be the next big thing in Hollywood. Unfortunately, several ill-advised choices over the next few years ended up dampening Hollywood's enthusiasm for the actor – most notably his lead roles in the 1976 remake of "King Kong” and Michael Cimino's studio-killing epic drama-turned-failure, "Heaven's Gate" (1980). Thankfully, Bridges was able to break his downward career freefall in the mid-1980s with a number of timely commercial hits. The first was director Taylor Hackford’s "Against All Odds" (1984), a loose remake of the 1947 drama “Out of the Past" (1947). The film, which co-starred Rachel Ward and James Woods, also featured a cameo by Bridges’ “first” leading lady, Jane Greer, as his mother. Later that year, Bridges earned his first Best Actor Academy Award nomination for his low-key portrayal of the titular Earth-bound alien in the science-fiction drama, “Starman” (1984). Over the course of filming, Bridges kicked off a lifelong friendship with “Starman” director John Carpenter, who gushed to Larry Worth of The New York Post: "[Jeff is] the greatest, as an actor and a person. He's the best actor of his generation, bar none." A year later, Bridges would enjoy his greatest box-office success to date as a charismatic, successful businessman accused of a high-profile murder in the legal thriller, "Jagged Edge" (1985), co-starring Glenn Close. Bridges proved utterly convincing as the almost neurotically optimistic, indomitable, all-American entrepreneur Preston Tucker in director Francis Ford Coppola’s, "Tucker: The Man and His Dream" (1988) – a project which enabled him to act again with his father, Lloyd. Keeping things in the family, Bridges next teamed up with brother Beau to give a complex performance as Jack Baker, a once celebrated piano prodigy reduced to entertaining as a lounge lizard in "The Fabulous Baker Boys" (1989). A resounding critical success, the film earned co-star Michelle Pfeiffer her second Oscar nomination, but some found Bridges even more impressive. He continued to give typically strong, but underrated performances during the 1990’s. Often willing to drastically change his looks to suit a part, Bridges reprised the role of an older, fatter Duane Jackson in “Texasville" (1990), the long-awaited sequel to "The Last Picture Show." Set 30 years after the original movie, Bridges gained 20 pounds for his role as the Texas roughneck-turned-millionaire who is desperate to recapture his lost youth. Unfortunately, not even Bridges’ splendid chemistry with “Texasville” co-star, Annie Potts (as Duane’s wife) could save the film from failure. Despite his up and down track record at the box office, Bridges nevertheless continued to grind out exemplary performances. The understated angst of his disk jockey character, Jack Lucas, in the gentle fantasy, "The Fisher King" (1991), again impressed critics by providing an effective counterpoint to the exuberant Robin Williams. Though Bridges wound up being overlooked by the Academy, the picture earned actress Mercedes Ruehl a Best Supporting Actress Oscar as Bridges' girlfriend. For his next role as an ex-con seeking to reconcile with his wayward son, Bridges grew his hair out long and dramatically sculpted his physique for the respectfully reviewed indie, "American Heart" (1993). That same year, Bridges won |raves for his portrayal of Max Klein, a man transfigured after his survival from an air disaster, in "Fearless" (1993). Nominated for an Oscar, “Fearless” was considered by many to be Bridges’ finest, most courageous piece of work to date. Unfortunately, moviegoers continued to under-appreciate the actor’s work. In 1994, Bridges fared poorly as a bomb squad cop pitted against Irish terrorist Tommy Lee Jones in "Blown Away" (1994), a critical flop that still did modest business. His follow-up, "Wild Bill" (1995), an eccentric "art western” from writer-director Walter Hill, earned Bridges some enthusiastic kudos, but it barely even received a release. Although Bridges delivered the goods as the tough, but fair skipper of a floating prep school in Ridley Scott's lusciously photographed "White Squall" (1996), the involving, well-acted, coming-of-age sea saga sank at the box office. Later that year, Bridges showed off his impressive comic timing as Barbra Streisand’s buttoned-down platonic paramour in the old-fashioned romantic comedy, "The Mirror Has Two Faces" (1996). During production, rumors abounded of friction between Bridges and Streisand, but both stars downplayed the reports as merely idle gossip. For his next project, Bridges did what he did best – make a 180 degree turn to transform himself into the overweight, greasy-haired, burnt-out, beach bum-cum-bowler in the Coen Brothers now classic comedy, "The Big Lebowski" (1998). Weirdly engaging in his role as 'The Dude' – described by the narrator as "the laziest man in Los Angeles County" – Bridges was initially hesitant to take the role of the reefer-toking, white Russian-swilling Dude, because he did not want it to appear as if he condoned drug use. Thankfully for fans of the “The Big Lebowski,” Bridges wound up changing his mind. The film became an instant cult classic – even more, after being released to home video/DVD. Leaving the Dude's bloated physique behind, Bridges slipped back into a more comfortable guise for his next role of the rumpled professor in the thriller "Arlington Road" (1999). In it, Bridges plays a paranoid academician whose discourses on domestic terrorism lead him to believe that his new neighbors are up to no good. Despite those two superb back-to-back performances, Bridges was back to being underused again in “The Muse” (1999), in which he played an Oscar-winning screenwriter who introduces his best friend (Albert Brooks) to Sharon Stone's title character. Rounding out the year, Bridges and Stone re-teamed as a millionaire racehorse breeder and his alcoholic wife in "Simpatico," adapted from the Sam Shepard play. The new millennium saw Bridges expanding his artistic horizons. An accomplished photographer in his spare time, Bridges had his evocative behind-the-scenes photo memoirs from films like "White Squall" published in Premiere magazine, and later, explored his longtime musical interests by releasing his debut album, Be Here Now in 2000. Despite the inevitable slings and arrows from wary critics who called the album a vanity project, Bridges handled the record with the very same level of Everyman dignity with which he approached his acting roles. Indeed, the participation of such musical heavyweights as Michael McDonald and David Crosby lent the album its share of gravitas. Later that year, Bridges returned to the big screen to play the deceptively shrewd and manipulative U.S. President Jackson Evans in the political drama, "The Contender" (2000). The actor followed that up with a role in director Iain Softley’s “K-Pax” (2001), a science-fiction drama co-starring Kevin Spacey. In it, Bridges played Dr. Mark Powell, an earnest psychiatrist who comes to doubt his own diagnosis of a seemingly delusional patient (Spacey) who claims he is from another planet. Bridges was especially enjoyable in his next picture, the Gary Ross-directed “Seabiscuit” (2003), in which he played wealthy financier, Charles Howard. Summoning a winning synthesis of his previous character, Preston Tucker, and his own father, Lloyd Bridges, Bridges breathed life into the optimistic, but grief-tempered character of Howard, the man responsible for bankrolling the famed 20th Century racehorse. Although the brisk pace of the film did not allow Bridges to fully explore his character's extreme emotional depths, the actor effectively conveyed Howard's entrepreneurial spirit. Almost simultaneously, Bridges appeared in the quirky comedy-drama, "Masked & Anonymous" (2003), the story of a singer-songwriter who emerges from obscurity to stage a benefit concert. The movie starred Bob Dylan – who also handled the directing chores – as singer Jack Fate and Bridges as Tom Friend, a jaded and bitter veteran music journalist covering the concert. Bridges’ maintained his steady output well into the decade, starring in an average of about one film per year. After a co-starring turn in director Terry Gilliam’s underappreciated fantasy, “Tideland” (2005), Bridges starred in the gymnastics-themed sports comedy “Stick It” (2006). The following year, Bridges lent his voice to his first animated project “Surf’s Up” (2007), an ambitious CGI-animated feature comedy about championship penguin surfers. After several years without a major studio feature, Bridges finally emerged to co-star in “Iron Man” (2008), the first mega-success of that summer. He played Obadiah Stane, second in command at Stark Industries, which manufactures high-tech weaponry sold around the world. But when the company’s prodigal son, Tony Stark (Robert Downey, Jr.), decides not to sell weapons after being held captive in Afghanistan, where he developed an iron suit designed to thwart violence, Stane attempts a hostile takeover that leads to stealing the Iron Man blueprints and designing his own bigger version. Aside from being a part of a strong cast that also included Gwyneth Paltrow as Pepper Potts and Terrence Howard as Rhodey, Bridges was able to live out his dream of shaving his head and growing a beard, making him look like a cross between Daddy Warbucks and the Gorton’s Fisherman.
