As always there are some categories for which the rightful nominee was somehow overlooked. The Secret Life Of Walter Mitty, in my opinion (IMHO) was the classic that was forgotten this year. Not only should it have been nominated, I’d have liked it to win for Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Screenplay.
