Preparing for the 19th Annual SAG Awards

The 19^th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards are finally here! This is a beautiful night that allows actors to celebrate their fellow actors. All eyes are on recent Golden Globe winners Daniel Day-Lewis, Jessica Chastain, Jennifer Lawrence, Hugh Jackman to see if they continue to be victorious. This is the award show that will help determine which performances will conquer the Oscars.

The unique aspect of the show is that it allows an ensemble of actors to be recognized as one. With 2012 being one of the best years in TV and film, it is very difficult to honor just one performance when so many have been exceptional. See the winners live this Sunday at 8PM on TBS or TNT.
