Oscar Nominations 2008

No Country for Old Men and There Will Be Blood let the pack with eight nominations. Atonement and Michael Clayton followed with seven nominations each.

As expected, Cate Blanchett picked up nods for Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress. HOORAY for Ellen Page getting her well-deserved Best Actress nomination for Juno. And BOO, Keira Knightley and James McAvoy were snubbed for their roles in Atonement.
