And the Acting PBs go to...

Best Actress
The nominees for Best Actress are: Ellen Page in Juno, Keri Russell in Waitress, Joan Allen in The Bourne Ultimatum, and Naomi Watts in Eastern Promises.

And the PB goes to...

Ellen Page for being hilariously entertaining and emotionally engaging as the "forshizz up the spout" title character in Juno. Page brought the timing and presence of a much older actor/comedian to the role. She undoubtedly has a bright career ahead of her.


Best Actor
The nominees for Best Actor are: Daniel Day-Lewis in There Will Be Blood, Ulrich Muhe in The Lives of Others, Viggo Mortensen in Eastern Promises, Matt Damon in The Bourne Ultimatum, and Josh Brolin in No Country for Old Men.

And the PB goes to...



Daniel Day-Lewis, for a performance as There Will Be Blood's Daniel Plainview that will remembered as one of the best ever. On screen for nearly every second, Day-Lewis carries the film and demonstrates that he has more acting chops in his spittle than most actors have in their whole bodies. His delivery of lines such as "I've abandoned my boy," "bastard in a basket," and "I drink your milkshake! I drink it up!" alone could have won Day-Lewis this award.
