Jan 11 2006Oscars, Trix For Kids

MSNBC reports that this year's Oscar nominees may be the youngest in history:
The Golden Globes and the year-end critics' awards have led the way to honoring fresh talent in medium-budget independent productions, while the Hollywood guilds, including the Writers' Guild, the Screen Actors' Guild and the Producers' Guild, appear to be following in the same Oscar-forecasting direction.
Most indicative of the new, young direction of Hollywood is the prominence of character-driven, edgy storylines, and that everyone has a MySpace. Among the youths favored for nominations are Scarlett Johansson, 21, Jake Gyllenhaal, 25, Keira Knightley, 20, and a talented fetus known only as, "Lil' Pinky."
