KIDMAN'S OSCAR HOPES SAVAGED BY CRITICS

NICOLE KIDMAN has been left devastated after her latest movie FUR was slammed by US critics, all but ending her hopes of gaining a third Oscar nomination.

NICOLE KIDMAN as Diane Arbus in 'FUR'.

Kidman, who plays real-life American photographer DIANE ARBUS in the movie, had believed Fur would be a major contender at the 2007 Academy Awards.

However, following a screening at the Telluride Film Festival, the Wall Street Journal describes Fur as one of the "stinkers" of the Colorado event.

The Hollywood Reporter's ANNE THOMPSON writes, "Fur is not an Oscar contender", while Variety says the film has "far more metaphysical weight than dramatic force".
