Although 12-year-old Elle Fanning and 14-year-old Hailee Steinfeld were shut out of yesterday's Golden Globe nominations, everyone agrees these two young actors gave the performances of their short lifetimes this year - Fanning in Sofia Coppola's ode to ennui, Somewhere, and Steinfeld in the Coen Brothers' steel-jawed Western, True Grit. But who was better? After the jump, we pit these two bright-eyed ingenues in a bloodless death match to find out.

Yesterday a list went up on Ranker touting “The 7 Most Annoying Kids in Action Movie History,” and I was not, in the main, surprised by the choices. Edward Furlong in Terminator 2, Jake Lloyd in Star Wars Episode I, and Dakota Fanning in War of the Worlds are all deserving of fan contempt.

All the talk this morning is about the Academy Award nominations being out, but since there were no earth-shattering surprises, and the stuff’s been written about and fretted over so much already, I’m going to forego any commentary and instead talk about the film I saw last night: The Runaways.
