BEST ACTOR - As with the Globes, the pity vote will probably be strong, but I really think Don Cheadle should get some props for his work in “Hotel Rwanda.”

1. Don Cheadle in “Hotel Rwanda?” (United Artists in association with Lions Gate Entertainment through MGM Distribution Co.)

2. Johnny Depp in “Finding Neverland?” (Miramax)

3. Leonardo DiCaprio in “The Aviator?” (Miramax, Initial Entertainment Group and Warner Bros.)

4. Clint Eastwood in “Million Dollar Baby?” (Warner Bros.)

5. Jamie Foxx in “Ray?” (Universal)

BEST ACTRESS - I haven’t seen any of these movies, but I hear “Million Dollar Baby” rocked the box-office, so I’ll naturally follow the money with Hillary Swank.

1. Annette Bening in “Being Julia?” (Sony Pictures Classics)

2. Catalina Sandino Moreno in “Maria Full of Grace?” (HBO Films in association with Fine Line Features)

3. Imelda Staunton in “Vera Drake?” (Fine Line Features, Alain Sarde and UK Film Council in association with Inside Track Films)

4. Hilary Swank in “Million Dollar Bab?” (Warner Bros.)

5. Kate Winslet in “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind?” (Focus Features)
