Best Actor

The names: Bradley Cooper, "Silver Linings Playbook"
Daniel Day-Lewis, "Lincoln"
Hugh Jackman, "Les Miserables"
Joaquin Phoenix, "The Master"
Denzel Washington, "Flight"

The dope: Unless the notion of "Lincoln" as a solid consensus pick cools in the coming weeks, this is Day-Lewis¿ to lose. He's quite an actor. Have you noticed? Really quite good.

Will win: Daniel Day-Lewis, "Lincoln"
Should win: Denzel Washington, "Flight"
