- A local voice Reviewer's views on who charms Oscar E PAGE " - WAN CHR0MCLE, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 20, MMS Coral Andrews Chronicle Special Monday, March 25 is fast approaching. Oscar night. ' The 1985 Academy Awards are a 'curious phenomenon. Like Wolfgang Mozart's timeless compositions, there should be as many hugs, kisses and (dare I say it) thank-you speeches as it takes. Here are my predictions far this year with some against all-odds picks. . Best Picture: Amadeus, Killing Fields, Passage To India, Places in The Heart, Soldier's Story - All equally good. Saw Killing Fields twice. but saw Amadeus three times” If this doesn't win I'll eat my hats! Sadly 1984 faves Ghostbusters, Gremlins. Beverly Hills Cop and All of Me were surprisingly neglected. Too popular and too funny. Hollywood's serious at this crucial time of year. Still, {my weren't John Hurt, or Richard Burton nominated for 1984, one of Burton's best pictures in years. q Best Actor: F. Murray Abraham - Amadeus, Jeff Bridges _ Starman, Albert Finney - Under The Volcano, Tom Hulse _ Amadeus, Sam Waterston - Killing Fields. I've been mad about Finney since Two For The Road. Despite his eruptive portrayal in Volcano, he is an unfortunate victim of the nominated-but-never-win club, along with Alan Bates, Peter O‘Toole and Richard Burton, the creme de la creme of the English screen. all whom I'd marry on contact. So, the statuette goes to an equally deserving F. Murray Abraham as Antonio Salieri in Amadeus. 0 Best Actress: Judy Davis - Passage to India, Sally Field - Places in the Heart. Jessica Lange - Country, Vanessa Redgrave _ The Bostonians. Sissy Spacek - The River. Spacek's all washed up in this category. Field's spunky Edna Spalding has won a 'piace in my heart.' ,. Desi Supporting Actor: Adblph Caesar - Soldier's Story, Fashion Hunting ... Your Search Is Over - For The Latest In Spring Fashions.

This is hard. Caesar was great. Malkovich, wonderful as Mr. Will, but Ngor's gut-wrenching Dith Pran was the most incredulous piece of method-acting to date. Definitely Ngor. oBest Supporting Actress: Peggy Ashcroft - Passage to India, Glenn Close - The Natural, Lindsay Crouse - Places in the Heart, Christine Lahiti . Swingshiit ta political swing at star Goldie Hawn) and Geraldine Page - Pope of Greenwich Village. The award should be Page's for her gem of a part in Pope, the sleeper of '84. But Glenn Close will likely get it, after being cited twice with Garp and The Big Chill, and not winning. So Close is nearer to Oscar. oBest Director: Woody Allen - Broadway Danny Rose, Robert Benton - Places In The Heart, Milos Forman - Amadeus, Roland Joffe - Killing Fields, David Lean - Passage To India. Killing Fields is Joife's striking directorial debut, and Lean is great with vista visage, but not meaty enough inside the scenery. Forman is the assured virtuoso. .. . . The remainder fast and furiously . . . 0 Best Song: Against All Odds-Against All Odds _ Phil Col- lins. . Best Original Score: The Muppets Take Manhattan (but Prince's Purple Rain will likely collect yet another award!!!) . Visual Ekeets: 2010 . Art Direction. Costume Design and Sound: Amadeus q Documentary feature: Times of Harvey Milk . Screenplay; Broadway Danny Rose - Woody Allen. o “In! Editing: The Cotton Club (for the Hine's dance scene) 0 Foreign Film: Switzerland’s Dangerous Moves. Compare if you wish.
