Film

Oscar nominations are out in February, and early tips include a brace of awards each for Up in the Air and Precious plus recognition for outstanding performances in Invictus (Morgan Freeman, Matt Damon), A Single Man (Colin Firth, Julianne Moore), and It’s Complicated (Meryl Streep). A Prophet meanwhile represents the rest of the world, and is a strong contender for the award for Best Foreign Language Film.
