There were annoying inseparable ties in both Actor and Supp.Actress categories. Rather than have 7 nominees, I used random number generator to pick which ones of the ties made the cut. Alas Slavoj Zizek was amongst them, missing out on an unlikely Best Actor nomination..

Too bad Volver missed out on Best film nomination..

And Syndromes and a Century, my personal favorite film of the decade. It also recently won the 2006 poll on Twitter.

Best Supporting Actress - How to choose between:
Abigail Breslin (Little Miss Sunshine) 2 (25%)
Carmen Maura (Volver) 2 (25%)
Cate Blanchett (Notes on a Scandal)

Citadel is nominated. Anyone have a link?
