My first disappointment....I wanted Eddie Murphy to win...heck, Alan Arkin didn't have much to do in SUNSHINE...I think it was a sentimental vote...Murphy was so much better and had a meatier role, IMO...

Little Miss Sunshine (Olive)

Sentimental vote = Bodes well for Peter O'Toole.

Arkin has at least 5 roles he could have gotten a best actor for:

The Russians are Coming
The Heart is a Lonely Hunter
Wait Until Dark
Popi
The In-Laws.

It's about time for Arkin and Murphy has a lot of catching up to do to equal that resume.
