Tough con Nolte, Stoi Oscar f0y Forecast Nominees for the 64th annual Academy Awards will face some of the toughest competition in re;ent Oscar history. For Best Actress, if there is anv justice, Susan Sarandon and Geena Davis will tie for "Thelina and Louise." "For the Boys" star Bette Midler got a sentimental nomination but she will not win, nor will Laura Dern in a far-better film, "Rambling Rose." Jodie Foster has a good chance if Davis and Sarandon cancel each other out. As the lead in "Silence of the Lambs," she stood face-to-face with twisted psychopath Hannibal Lecter and had the audience cheering for her. Foster's acclaimed directorial debut, "Little Man Tale," reaffirmed Do yc You should.

Robin Williams received his third Best Actor nomination, this lime for "The Fisher King," but, alas, poor Mr. Williams is always a nominee, never a winner. Robert De Niro of "Cape Fear" displayed rage and anger better than anyone else can, and Warren Beatty's fresh turn in "Bugsy" may have an outside chance; but the contest is between Nick Nolle in "Prince of Tides" and Anthony Hopkins in "Silence of the Lambs." Nolle moved audiences as he came to terms with his troubled past, and Hopkins terrified viewers with a character whose impact has lingered almost a year after the film's release. For Best Supporting Actress, Kale Nclligan in "Prince of Tides" became a symbol of how Southern culture made the main character repress childhood memories; and "Cape Fear" actor Juliette Lewis depicted the innocence of childhood versus evil personified. Mercedes Ruchl, who emerged in the male-dominated "Fisher King," has >u know this: ie new Episcopal chapla md his family came to Coh ministry this semester.

But the Academy loves Jessica Tandy of "Fried Green Tomatoes," and she may win as a tribute to her uncanny ability to make the audi- | ence care. , Jack Palance will win Best Sup- , porting Actor as the crusty trail , boss in the comedy hit "City Slick- , crs." If Harvey Keitel were nominated for "Thclina and Louise" in- < stead of "Bugsy," he might have a chance. Few people saw Michael Lcrner's humorous work in "Barton Fink," and Ben Kingsley of "Bugsy" is only nominated because the Academy is glad to see him do some post-Gandhi perfor mances. iorniny Lee Jones is one of many great supporting players in "JFK." In the Best Director slot, 24-year-old John Singleton became the youngest person and first black director to be nominated. His work on the profound urban drama "Boyz 'N the Hood" is very accomplished, but other directors man? in to USC.
