The Screen Actors Guild presented their awards for the best in acting this past year, a strong predictor for what we’ll see at the Academy Awards at the end of the month. The Help took away the most awards, with best ensemble, Octavia Spencer for best female supporting and Viola Davis for best female lead performance, a refreshing win over Meryl Streep in The Iron Lady. Jean Dujardin won best actor for The Artist, beating both George Clooney and Brad Pitt. With the last seven wins in this category going on to secure an Oscar, it will be interesting to see what happens at the ceremony. Check them all out below.
