We're on the home stretch to the Oscars! Award season is upon us and will continue on until the crème de la crème of awards shows - The Oscar Awards, air live on Sunday, February 27th.
The SAG awards aired last Sunday bringing out an array of film and TV actors. The glitz & glamor on the red carpet was not lost on anyone! There were more hits than misses when it came to the red carpet fashion. The show was actually interesting and not drawn out as most of these type of shows usually are. Most of the actors favored to win continued to take home the goods and earn great recognition.
Newcomer to prime time TV, Boardwalk Empire, continued it's winning streak garnering the Outstanding Performance by an Actor (Drama) and Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series. Gathering from the critics and fans responses, this is one show I need to start watching. This show has proved to be very tough competition against another fan favorite Mad Men. *I absolutely LOVE this show* Don Draper does it for me!! Did I mention that the show also beat out another great TV drama, House? BE is here to stay!
The incomparable Betty White was a surprise winner in the Outstanding Actress in a Comedy series for her role in Hot In Cleveland! She was just as surprised while accepting her award but still brought her signature naughty humor on stage. Who doesn't love this woman?!!
Colin Firth and Natalie Portman (with her ever growing baby bump), have been favored to bag the top honors in film and they got just that! Another award for their mantle. If these awards season has been any indication on who's going for the gold, these two are a sure bet at the Oscars.
My mission is to see all the films nominated by Oscar night. And yes, that does include the film that most people didn't see, Winters Bone.
