Who Are the Oscar Front-Runners?



If it seems like every critics' organization, film association and local street-meat vendor has released their picks for the best actors of 2011 recently, don't fret. We're here to tell you which thespians are nabbing the kudos that count -- and, more to the point, which of these acting all-stars are the front-runners heading toward the Oscars. So we've compiled a gallery of the most decorated leading and supporting actors of the moment -- based on Oscar nominations, as well as wins/nods from the Golden Globes, Screen Actors Guild, Critics' Choice Awards, N.Y. Film Critics Circle, Boston Film Critics Society and L.A. Film Critics Association -- and given them 1 point for each nomination, 2 points for each critics' circle win and 3 points for each major awards-show win. Check out our gallery to see their power rankings heading toward the Feb. 26 Academy Awards!
