Awards Coverage: SAG Winners

Last night Hollywood actors celebrated themselves with the Screen Actors Guild awards. Film winners were pretty much consistent with the current predictions for this year's Oscar winners with Helen Mirren, Forest Whitaker, Jennifer Hudson, and Eddie Murphy all taking home individual acting awards. The only real surprise was SAG's decision to award the trophy for film ensemble to the indie comedy Little Miss Sunshine over more favored films such as Babel and The Departed. Sunshine's talented cast is more than deserving and given it's sweep of the PGA awards ealier this year, its chances for Best Picture look less and less like a long shot every day. Below are the nominees with winners in bold.
