Oscar Prediction: Helen Mirren will win Best Actress Award

I know am going out on a limb but I feel pretty confident that when the Academy Awards are handed out on February 25th, Helen Mirren will walk away with the Best Actress Award. I did a quick environmental scan and despite the fact that my favourite actress, Kate Winslet is nominated, it's likely a done deal. Afterall, Helen Mirren has already won Best Actress for her role in The Queen by:
