Yes, there was another awards show last night. The movie (and in some cases TV) award shows leading up to the Academy Awards (Oscars) later this month continued Sunday with the Screen Actors Guild Awards in Shine Auditorium. Los Angeles and televised on Netflix.
Its awards upset some earlier expectations.
Formerly called the SAG Awards, it has strongly foretold the who and what to expect at the 98th Academy Awards ceremony which happens in two weeks on March 15, 2026.
For those readers not tuned in to award ceremonies, the Oscars, as they are known, are for people and movie related categories released the previous year, in this case 2025.
“One Battle After Another” and, after this past Sunday, “Sinners,” are top contenders.
“One Battle” did well at the Golden Globes, the Producers Guild Awards, the BAFTAs and the Directors Guild Awards. But “Sinners” took Best Ensemble Sunday. After One Battle’s mega wins, it’s nice to know other films are in contention for awards.
A strange, supernatural style film written, directed and produced by Ryan Coogler,”Sinners” combines blues music and gangster style drama during a day in 1932 in Clarksdale, Mississippi.
it stars Michael B. Jordan in dual roles as identical twins who return to their hometown where they are faced with supernatural evil.
