The nominations are in for this year's Oscars. As expected, award frontrunners The Artist, The Descendants and The Help are all up for Best Picture and have stars nominated in the acting categories, while Woody Allen's Midnight In Paris has made a strong showing and War Horse, with a surprise nomination for Best Picture, could be set to do well in the technical categories. Meanwhile, A Separation, which has swept the board so far, will be very hard to beat in the Best Foreign Film category.
The awards ceremony will take place on February 26.
