The Life of David Gale

Wow, what an awful movie. I think you know a movie's bad when Kate Winslet is in way over her head, and you can tell. D

...that said. It's Kevin Spacey's best post-American Beauty offering (not that that says much, so let me rephrase it: save Superman Returns, it's his only notable post-American Beauty offering), and Laura Linney is just fantastic as always. 2003 was a great year for supporting actresses and Linney gets nominated (if I allowed for multiple performances in one award, she would get the win for this, Love Actually, and Mystic River combined). I'd nominate Kevin as well...I think.
