November Oscar Predictions

Washington and Davis seem Oscar-bound for Fences.

Since last month, we've seen footage from Martin Scorsese's Silence, which looks like a possible alternate to La La Land winning Best Picture. Of course, Manchester by the Sea and Moonlight have passionate support, as will Fences (from the actors branch at least). Not much has changed in my predictions, though. Check them out below.
