This week on The Collision, we break down the specifics of Oscar prognostication to explain how films that haven't been released can still be in the race, where the 2014 awards race currently stands, growing and declining buzz on particular films, Mark Harris' recent "X and Y" Oscar article, and more. We also discuss Dan Gilroy's excellent new film, Nightcrawler. As always, we finish up with our recommendations.
