‘Argo’ again surprised many and took home the most coveted prize, Best Cast – Motion Picture.  ‘Argo’ now is looking like the mainstay as spoiler to compete with ‘Lincoln’ for Best Picture.  Jessica Chastain seemed she would be playing the role of frontrunner for Best Actress after her countless critic’s wins and her Globe win for Best Actress a couple weeks ago but Jennifer Lawrence ended up taking the SAG prize for her role in ‘Silver Linings Playbook’, making the Oscar for Best Actress the most intriguing race we have at the moment.  The rest of the night went as planned with wins for Day-Lewis, Lee Jones, and Hathaway along with the usual winners in the TV categories (although Bryan Cranston was a much deserved mini upset over Damian Lewis for Best Actor Drama Series).

Director’s Guild Awards are up next on February 2^nd, then the BAFTAs on February 10^th, and the Independent Spirit Awards on Oscar eve February 23^rd.
