That would be a damn fine Oscar lineup (even if I'm not overly thrilled with the frontrunner, as I feel it's the script that really keeps that film from greatness... well, the script and Dunst).

Good morning, Oscar Buzz. I'm listening.

I believe non English language films are not eligible.

Some folks say that it was eligible but I don't think it's that big of a miss considering that they've never nominated a musical at all.
