Clear cut wins for James McAvoy & Burt Lancaster and slightly less so for Javier Bardem over Geoffrey Rush. I thought that would have gone the other way.
Toshiro Mifune lives to fight another day after there were a lot of abstentions on his match up with Veronica Lake.
This next one is the final set for Monday folks.
