I have to agree with Charlize Theron. Her role in Monster is perhaps the best performance I have ever seen by a woman. She really convinced me she was Aileen Wournos. Edward Norton is also one of my favorite actors. You can put him on the list of potential candidates to win the best actor award. A great actress that can be put on the list is Naomi Watts. She was amazing in both Mullholand Drive and 21 grams. She too will win an oscar some day.
