How to read this
Leading actors who were Oscar nominated in the past, can end up in the final Top 10 with only 1 point. This happend two years ago with Tommy Lee Jones (In the Valley of Elah). He received only 1 point (thanks to a nomination from the Satellites), and ended up being Oscar nominated. That's great news for Daniel Day-Lewis, Jeff Bridges and Johnny Depp.

Daniel Day-Lewis has even more reasons to party. As a former Oscar Winner he needs only one more point to profit from the Mery Streep Rule. If that happens, Day-Lewis will certainly end up in the final Top 10, even the final Top 5 is possible.
