“Birdman” odds to win the Best Picture for the 2015 Academy Awards were set at -175 as of Friday afternoon but the price is bound to change leading into Sunday.
“Birdman” was priced only slightly higher than “Boyhood” at +125.
The favorite would require a $17.50 bet to pay out $10, a price considered to have solid value by Oscars standards. Gamblers would receive their $17.50 bet along with the $10 assuming “Birdman” were to win.
The Michael Keaton-star vehicle plays a faded Hollywood actor famous for his superhero role struggling to mount a Broadway adaption of a Raymond Carver story. Keaton’s character is tormented by voices in his head – supposedly those of his one time superhero character Birdman – insisting that he revitalize his career on Broadway. Carver was known for contributing to the revitalization of the American short story in literature during the 1980s.
