i predict doubtfire will win in a landslide but i will certainly vote birdcage above it.
also thought he was so good in one hour photo, loved that movie.

Look you can definitely argue it shouldn't win, but Insomnia has to at least be an option here

I don't know, I feel this is underrated. I knew there was one I really liked that was missing from the options, I think this was it |

Its portrayal of mental illness - conflating symptoms of PTSD and schizophrenia, curable by the "love of a good woman", romanticizing hallucinations, etc.

For some reason I was thinking of Jeff Bridges as the problematic role (which obviously he kind of is, but thats the point) and wasn't really thinking about that portrayal. |

Admittedly, I haven't watched The Birdcage in years. I can't imagine a movie that is so old and about gay people not having any problems now, but I am willing to be wrong!
There are people, though, who think Boys Don't Cry is very problematic, so I don't always know what to think.
