 BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS
Helen Mirren
GOSFORD PARK

Helen Mirren did her usual professional job as the prim and grim head housekeeper in "Gosford Park," and the film can't go home empty-handed. A Spacek win for "Bedroom" bumps Tomei, and somehow in a Dame Judy Dench category Mirren looks a favorite over Smith. Though Oscar may get swept up in Americamania and simply bless Connelly.
