Here are my predictions for the Oscar winners for films made in 2016:
- Picture: La La Land
- Director: Damien Chazelle for La La Land
- Actor: Denzel Washington for Fences
- Actress: Emma Stone for La La Land
- Supporting actor: Mahershala Ali for Moonlight
- Supporting actress: Viola Davis for Fences
- Original screenplay: Manchester by the Sea
- Adapted screenplay: Moonlight
- Cinematography: La La Land
- Editing: La La Land
- Animated feature: Zootopia
- Documentary feature: O.J.: Made in America
- Foreign language feature: The Salesman (Iran)
- Production design: La La Land
- Costumes: La La Land
- Makeup: Star Trek Beyond
- Score: La La Land
- Song: “City of Stars” from La La Land
- Sound editing: Hacksaw Ridge
- Sound mixing: La La Land
- Visual effects: The Jungle Book
- Animated short: Piper
- Documentary short: The White Helmets
- Live action short: Ennemis Interieurs
My primary source was GoldDerby, though I also looked at PredictWise. The ones that seem to have the least consensus are actor, costumes, and documentary short (the last being a dead heat between The White Helmets and Joe’s Violin).
