Just Make Us Look Good

The actors for Oscars 2010 have been gathered to talk about the best performances of the decade. Some are funny, some are profound. Hat tip to Arnian.

Sandra Bullock says Kate Winslet in The Reader
Julianne Moore says Sean Penn in Mystic River
Carey Mulligan says Saoirse Ronan in Atonement
Jeff Bridges says “the guy in Chuck and Buck”
Morgan Freeman says Meryl Streep in any film she’s done in the last ten years.
Woody Harrelson says “the guy in The Lives of Others”
Jake Gyllenhaal says Peter Sarsgaard in An Education
Christoph Waltz says Tommy Lee Jones in No Country for Old Men
Sam Worthington says Eddie Murphy in the Nutty Professor, Or Eddie Murphy in any film where he’s played many different characters.

Tobey Maguire says Leonardo DiCaprio in The Aviator
Colin Firth says Kevin Bacon in The Woodsman

George Clooney says Marion Cotillard from La Vie en Rose

The New York Times Magazine has also posted their seasonal portraits of the Oscar race, which are always gorgeous. They are, as usual, absolutely fantastic. There is a whole series on Jeff Bridges. It’s funny how the good publicists will always get their people into these shoots whether they make it to the Oscars or not.

One more pic after the cut.
