Best Actor in a Supporting Role: James Franco, Milk

Josh Brolin bagged a Best Supporting Actor nod for his haunting portrayal of San Fran’s homicidal city supervisor Dan White, but no such luck for his fellow “Milk” castmate. Despite a glowing yet understated performance as Harvey Milk’s much younger lover, Scott Smith, in the colorful Castro neighborhood, James Franco’s incandescence was ignored by the Academy … or, perhaps it was overshadowed by his sexy (or scary, depending on your mood) ‘stache? Best performance by facial hair in a feature film, fo’ sho.

  Sean Penn should win, no question, he embodies Harvey Milk to an amazing degree. And yes I too am surprised all of the uneducated trash on this board even know how to turn on a computer....go back to worshiping your invisible, nonexistent god, brainless trash.

  Wow, reading the comments against gays, scary to know there are that many bitter, small minded people! Perhaps less inbreeding and better education might improve their lot.

  I'm glad this movie didn't make it. I'm sick of the movies and sitcoms about gays. That's just un-exceptable. Their not normal people.

  Man, all the rednecks are still on the Internet as usual. Are there ISP addresses in trailer parks?

  Flicka and Woobie King, hard as it may be for you to believe, you are numbskull neanderthals. The world has evolved and has left you behind. You are the last of the homophobes.

  Brolin's nomination was not deserved.. it should have been Franco.

  I was surprised he was left out of the nominations.
