From Gold Derby at Latimes.com:
Thelma Adams (Us Weekly, Thelmadams.com) sends us her Oscar scouting report from Canada: “Out of Toronto, ‘Black Swan’ is immediately the front-runner in the Oscar race, the one to beat. That means best picture, best actress Natalie Portman, best director Darren Aronofsky, best screenplay, best supporting actor Vincent Cassel (who’s about to get a lot more work in America), and possibly even a campaign for best supporting actress for Barbara Hershey -– a campaign but not necessarily a nomination.”
