I havent seen "Ray",but after "Hotel Rwanda", Don Cheadle deserves
the Oscar.

What a great acting job in a great film. Hotel Rwanda will make you cry and rip your heart out.

Why is it not nominated for an academy award?

Has anyone seen "Hotel Rwanda" and "Ray"?

Who do you think should get the nod?

1. You wouldn't say that if you saw Ray...
Good as Cheadle was, Foxx just blows away the competition. Yes, the hype in this rare instance is true.

3. I'll have to see Ray. Who would of thought that Jamie Foxx would win
an Oscar?
I just hope that DiCaprio doent win it.

4. I've seen them both
Two good films, two fine acting performances. Personally I would vote for Don Cheadle, but I think that is more because of the subject matter of Hotel Rwanda than anything else for me. But they are both deserving, no question.

5. Foxx deserves the Oscar but I agree
Cheadle was amazing. In any other year, Don would win but I think it's Jaime's year.

I saw both films and enjoyed them both.
