My Oscar predictions

Some categories have multiple movies selected (usually 1 underlined and 1 not). If there are more than 2 (other than best picture), it means I haven't seen enough of the selected films to decide.
Underline = Which one I predict the Academy will choose.
Not Underlined = Which one was my favorite.
In the case of best picture, I think the underlined film will win although the bold italicized film (in my opinion) was better. The third film was my choice.
