As much as I loved Nightcrawler, I'm giving this one to Birdman. Wasn't Foxcatcher an adaptation of a novel that was based on a true-life event? Strange to see it in the original category.
 
I would love to see Nightcrawler WIN something and the writing was genuinely outstanding! My goodness, such an underrated film. I suspect though, this will go to The Grand Budapest Hotel or Birdman.
