No Guts, No Glory

• Coen Brothers for Directing
• Hailee Steinfeld - Best Actress
• The Ghost Writer - Adapted screenplay

Now it seems obvious that Hailee Steinfeld will be nominated for best actress - which leaves room for both Mila Kunis and Jacki Weaver. Also I have a feeling that Coen Brothers will be nominated for directing. For adapted screenplay The Ghost Writer seems to be right choice but I don’t know which one to leave out.
