You always knew Andrea from “Beverly Hills 90210” would be introducing the SAG Awards. Art becomes life.
SAG just snubbed Quentin Tarantino’s “The Hateful Eight,” passed over Jennifer Lawrence in “Joy” and gave little joy to a lot of people who we thought they’d nominate this morning. These are the weirdest nominations I have ever seen.
Big surprises: a TV Nod for Nicole Kidman in “Grace of Monaco.” This was released as a movie, then retracted sort of, released on Lifetime. (I agree that Kidman was excellent in a bad movie.) A movie nom for Sarah Silverman’s dramatic role in “I Smile Back.” Shocks.
Big endorsement for “Trumbo” and Bryan Cranston. Big. A nomination for Helen Mirren in “Woman in Gold.”
But snubs: no acting prizes for “Spotlight” other than ensemble. No Keaton or Ruffalo. But Rachel McAdams got in for Supporting Actress. I think the supporting thing for all the men in “Spotlight” confuses everyone.
A nomination for an 8 year old, Jacob Tremblay, from “Room.”
