The Young Folks Oscar Panel Series: Best Actor

So I think it’s pretty clear that the Best Actor race was a difficult one this year which makes the final list of nominees bittersweet, no matter how you look it. Think of a lineup with Jake Gyllenhaal, David Oyelowo, Ralph Fiennes, Jack O’Connell and Oscar Isaac? While I’m not too certain about the Bradley Cooper nomination, I can’t deny that the five men nominated are incredibly talented and worthy of praise.

But who the hell is going to win this thing?

Check out the nominees and the video below!

Actor
Steve Carell in “Foxcatcher”
Bradley Cooper in “American Sniper”
Benedict Cumberbatch in “The Imitation Game”
