No doubt, Elizabethtown has come out of Toronto pretty much dead as a major awards contender. It's not just Poland, either.
Mrs. Henderson Presents, OTOH, looks like a big winner out of Toronto, with many slotting Judi Dench as a Best Actress lock. Bob Hoskins is getting Supporting talk.
Adam_S's list of a few days ago looks spot on, although at this point I would swap the two films above.
Interesting thing about the Best acting categories. Pretty much every pundit out there has Philip Seymour Hoffman & Joaquin Phoenix as locks for Actor, AND Reese Witherspoon & Judi Dench locked into Actress. A good number of people would add Ralph Fiennes & Rachel Weisz to that list. Are there really only 2 slots in each of the major acting categories left open this early in the campaign?? This will be fun to follow.
