Golden Globes Best Screenplay - Martin McDonagh (The Banshees of Inisherin)

The Banshees of Inisherin will be a strong challenger at the Golden Globes:

  • Martin McDonagh is a previous two time Globes winner Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri

  • Colin Farrell is a slam dunk to win Best Actor in a Motion Picture - Comedy/Musical

  • Reliable awards pundits have Banshees in the number 1 spot to win screenplay honours

The fine folk at Unibet and TABtouch have completely botched this price. I rate it a 55% chance, or $1.82. At $3.25, open your wallets for this strong play and take advantage of the 79% market edge.

Golden Globes Best Actor in a Motion Picture - Drama - Austin Butler

Elvis is well positioned here. It has momentum, and is the kind of bombastic entertainment that Globes voters vote for. Brendan Fraser's campaign is fading and is overrated by the market.

I have Butler priced at $1.88, so $2.35 is a gift and a strong 29% edge.

Academy Awards - Best Actor - Austin Butler and Colin Farrell

The Fraser train is losing steam. With heartwarming standing ovations, The Whale’s campaign and narrative peaked several weeks ago. Betting markets have Fraser’s chances overcooked, and there is nourishment to be had in other challengers for the Best Actor Oscar.

Colin Farrell and Austin Butler are expected to be victorious at the Golden Globes, and a significant price drop will result. Before it’s too late, now is the time to strike on Austin Butler and Colin Farrell for Oscar glory.
