FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda
For the main event, Sunday’s 18th annual SAG ceremony is heavy on actors
playing illustrious real-life figures.
Among them: Meryl Streep as Margaret Thatcher in “The Iron Lady”;
Leonardo DiCaprio as J. Edgar Hoover in “J. Edgar”; and Michelle
Williams as Marilyn Monroe and Kenneth Branagh as Laurence Olivier in “My
Week With Marilyn.”
Streep won a Golden Globe for “The Iron Lady” and is considered a
favourite for the SAG prize and for her third win at the Academy Awards.
The front-runners for the other SAG awards are actors in fictional roles,
though, among them George Clooney as a dad in crisis in “The Descendants”
and Jean Dujardin as a silent-film star fallen on hard times in “The
Artist.” Both are up for best actor, and both won Globes – Clooney as
dramatic actor, Dujardin as musical or comedy actor.
Octavia Spencer as a brassy Mississippi maid in “The Help” and
Christopher Plummer as an elderly dad who comes out as gay in “Beginners”
won Globes for supporting performances and have strong prospects for the
same honours at the SAG Awards.
All four acting recipients at SAG last year later took home Oscars – Colin
Firth for “The King’s Speech,” Natalie Portman for “Black Swan”
and Christian Bale and Melissa Leo for “The Fighter.”
The same generally holds true for the weekend’s other big Hollywood honours,
the Directors Guild of America Awards, where Michel Hazanavicius won the
feature-film prize Saturday for “The Artist.” The Directors Guild
winner has gone on to earn the best-director Oscar 57 times in the 63-year
history of the union’s awards show.
SAG also presents an award for overall cast performance, a prize that’s
loosely considered the ceremony’s equivalent of a best-picture honour.
However, the cast award has a spotty record at predicting what will win best
picture at the Oscars.
While “The King’s Speech” won both honours a year ago, the SAG cast
recipient has gone on to claim the top Oscar only eight times in the 16
years since the guild added the category.
Airing live on TNT and TBS from the Shrine Exhibition Center in downtown Los
Angeles, the show features nine television categories, as well.
Receiving the guild’s life-achievement award is Mary Tyler Moore. The prize
was to be presented by Dick Van Dyke, her co-star on the 1960s sitcom “The
Dick Van Dyke Show.”
