It's the awards season once again in Hollywood. Besides the fabulous suits and gowns worn by the attendees, the focus of the event is of course the nominated films; not to mention the winners in itself, and the acceptance speeches to boot.
The season kicks off with the Golden Globe Awards, presented by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA). Then followed by the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Awards. Finally, the most anticipated of them all - the Academy Awards aka Oscars, given by the Academy of Motion Pictures and Sciences (AMPAS).
These three award-giving bodies are somewhat connected to each other. Primarily because getting a nomination slot (or better yet a trophy) on the first two award-giving body would somehow guarantee you of a slot in the Oscars. Take the case of Kate Winslet, who got nominations and trophies as best actress in Golden Globe and SAG in two different movies - Revolutionary Road and The Reader. Recently, Winslet earned a best actress grandslam by winning her Oscar for her role in The Reader. Danny Boyle got his best director trophy for his masterpiece Slumdog Millionaire in the Golden Globes, and eventually the Oscars.
Here are the list of winners for the said award-giving bodies:
