Immediately after the nominees for the 81st annual Academy Awards were announced, the usual guessing games began - not only the one about who will win, but the even more fruitless enterprise of sifting the list for What It All Means. Trying to analyse the Oscar nominations in the hope that they'll yield some greater significance either about the films themselves or the moment in which they have arrived is, more often than not, a fool's errand that leads to one paradox after another.
