Oscar Index: It?s the Charm, Stupid

"Let's have a moment of silence for the suffering Oscar bloggers as they enter the most trying and mortifying weeks of their labors." Such was Glenn Kenny's tweeted lament earlier this week -- one eerily anticipating today's latest, sanity-thrashing edition of Oscar Index. And that's just its effect on readers! You really don't want to see the catatonic pall saturating Movieline's Institute for the Advanced Study of Kudos Forensics. On the other hand, we're gonna make a fortune recycling this mounting pile of wine bottles. To the Index!

Oscar Index: Its the Charm, Stupid

The Final 9:
1. The Artist
2. The Help
3. The Descendants
4. Hugo
5. Moneyball
6. The Tree of Life
7. Midnight in Paris
8. The Daldry
9. War Horse

Some shuffling in the ranks reflected little more than two things: 1) The profile boosts that certain films' respective individual nominees received in the acting and directing categories, and 2) our arrival at the harsh depot known as Smug City -- an awards-season juncture to which we return seemingly every year now, described this time around by EW's Owen Gleiberman:

The audience ? remember them? ? is no longer a very big part of the equation. I had assumed, mistakenly, that because The Help was an astonishingly big hit, and because its success sprung from the way that it clearly touched a racial-cultural nerve in people, that the movie?s organic popularity ? as opposed to the heavily marketed freeze-dried quasi-popularity of The Artist ? would be decisive at the Academy Awards. But all I was demonstrating was a mode of analysis about how the Oscars work that is now, more or less, completely outmoded.

Seriously, you've heard this all before: Gleiberman goes on to contrast the populist glories…
