Hello, and welcome to my award season coverage. A little delayed, But I'm back to keep you up to date on who/what may win an Oscar on April 25th. So, with that out of the way, let's Begin
The Screen Actors Guild Award (aka SAG Awards) aired last night. My opinion on the ceremony, To be honest, was 1 step above the Golden Globes press conference during the 2008 writers’ strike. The ceremony was only an hour-long pre-recorded zoom session which was too condensed for my liking and rendering the acceptance speeches too short to leave an impact. I have no idea why they did not do a 90-minute ceremony.
Let's get to Winners Best Supporting Actor which was won by Daniel Kaluuya for Judas and the Black Messiah he is now a lock for the Oscar.
Best Actor was won by the late Chadwick Boseman for Ma Rainey's Black Bottom who is now a lock for the Oscar.
Best Supporting Actress was won by youn yuh-jung, for Minari could very well give her a win for an Oscar but I'm thinking that Maria Bakalova for Borat Subsequent Moviefilm or maybe Glenn Close for Hillbilly Elegy, as a makeup Award, (Glenn Close may win an Oscar and a Razzie for the same performance! How is that for the record books?) I'm waiting to see what BAFTA will do but Close is not a nominee at BAFTA.
Best Actress was won by Viola Davis for Ma Rainey's Black Bottom it is now a 3-way race for the Oscar between Viola Davis, Frances McDormand for Nomadland, and Carey Mulligan for Promising Young Woman.
Best Ensemble win was won by The Trial of the Chicago 7 and this category is SAG’s equivalent for Best Picture. However, I have my doubts that Trial of the Chicago 7 will win Best Picture at the Oscars for one very important reason: Trial of the Chicago 7 does not have a Directing nomination and only 5 movies in the 90+ year history of the Oscars have won without a Directing nomination (Wings(1929), Grand Hotel (1932), Driving Miss Daisy (1990) Argo (2013) Green Book (2019)) Now given the fact that the last two are only 6 years apart you could argue that maybe winning without a directing nomination is not as uncommon as it used to be. As of now, I predict that Nomadland will win, but on that note, Nomadland was not nominated for Best Ensemble at SAG which is also rare for a win as only 3 movies in the 20+year history of SAG have accomplished this. Those that have accomplished the win for best picture without the SAG Ensemble nomination are Braveheart (1996), The Shape of Water (2018), and Green Book (2019). This year only 2 nominations match between SAG Ensemble and Best Picture which is equally rare.
Thank you,
Goodnight, and Bee Happy!™
