It was a pretty big night for awards season frontrunners at the 20th Annual SAG Awards. Everyone you pretty much expected to walk away with the Actor did. American Hustle took home the big prize for Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture, while Breaking Bad and Modern Family took it home for their respective televison categories for drama and comedy. Although the night was full of non-surprises, it was however a great night for acceptance speeches, especially from Lupita Nyong’o, Bryan Cranston, and Rita Moreno. See the full list of winners after the break.

Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture

• 12 Years a Slave
• American Hustle (WINNER)
• August: Osage County
• Dallas Buyers Club
• Lee Daniels’ The Butler

I have to agree based only on the fact that it is for cast and not film. 12 Years a Slave is the better film and has better performances, but they all feel disconnected since they all don’t interact with one another. American Hustle’s cast has more synergy and work well collaboratively together.
