one of the local television stations up home is promoting the new movie with a chance to meet Jennifer Lawrence and or Bradley Cooper.

one of their posts was..

"If you could ask Bradley Cooper or Jennifer Lawrence one question, what would it be?"

my suggestion was

"So Bradley did you happen to see Eddie Redmayne's Oscar Winning performance in The Theory of Everything?"

I'm guessing I'm not gonna win

It was inevitable that Eddie Redmayne would win. When there's someone among the nominees who plays someone with a handicap it's a waste of time to even bother having a vote.

Such has often been the case throughout the history of the Academy Awards, at least dating back to 1946, when Harold Lloyd won for playing a WW II paraplegic in THE BEST YEARS OF OUR LIVES.

Harold Russell actually played Homer Parrish. he was actually a non-actor and actually handicapped and not just an actor playing a WWII Vet.

My mistake. But Gaston is right; those actors who portray people with disabilities of some kind or another are almost always first in line to win.

the Academy actually thought Russell was such a longshot that they awarded him an Honorary Oscar for the same performance then he turned around and actually won Best Supporting Oscar.
