2008 Screen Actors Guild Award Winners

"Best Ensemble" is the Screen Actors Guild equivalent of "Best Picture" and that award went to "Slumdog Millionaire" tonight.  Watching some of the SAG Awards, "Slumdog's" achievements seem more remarkable because there's not a single "name" attached to it.  It's a great ensemble filled with fantastic performances but it has no stars, no name above the marquee.  The most recognized it can be is to let people know it's from the director of "Trainspotting" and "28 Days Later" even though it's nothing like those two films.  I just think it's very cool that it's the front-runner and I hope that it takes home Best Picture on February 22nd.

 

The SAG awards also showed us that in the Best Actor and Best Actress categories, there's just no telling who's going to win.  I would say that right now, Sean Penn, who won tonight for "Milk", has a small advantage over Mickey Rourke and that Kate Winslet, who won in the Best Supporting Actress category for "The Reader", has an even smaller advantage over Meryl Streep or any of the other Best Actress nominees. 

 

But the guy you can count on to win is Ledger.  SAG awarded him "Best Supporting Actor" and there's just no one that can touch him or really, who would want to.  Who wants to be seen as taking an award away from a dead guy?  That's not very nice.

 

And as they have at all the 2008 Awards Ceremonies, "Mad Men", "30 Rock", and "John Adams" took home most of the television honors.
