If your potrayal has that kind of an effect on people, you're doing something right. I may just be biased because my mother hated Tabu’s character in the movie :-)

I think Tabu stands the best chance of being nominated for best female actor. The thing Namesake has going for it, is that the movie was mostly in English and at no point did it look like the English language was forced on the actors.
