2015 Academy Awards: My Winners

On January 16th , Oscar Nominees and Nominations have been announced! Like I did last year, I wanted to say my opinion on who should win (because, you know, I'm such an expert!) basing my picks on personal feelings BUT also on who's most likely to win...
TROPHEE OSCARS 2000-2010

And now I want to explain why I made these choices! 

I belive that the 87th Academy Awards cerimony will be heterogeneous: do you remember those editions were movie like “Titanic” or “Lord of the Rings” won it all? 
I don’t think this will happen in this edition. 

Movies like “The Theory of Everything”, “The Imitation Game” , “Boyhood” or “Birdman” will probably win something, but not everything they’re nominated for.

As much as I would love to see Benedict Cumberbatch with the golden statuette in his hands, I think Eddie Redmayne will win (au contraire, this will be the first time in my entire life I’d love to be wrong!).
Likewise for Best Actress in a Leading role: they were all spectacular and I really hope that Felicity Jones wins, but it will be Julianne Moore instead (which, of course, I don’t mind!).

These two categories were the hardest for me to choose, for the other I had no doubt! And now we only have to wait until 22nd of February to see if I'm right or wrong!

I'm curious....who are your winners?
