Highlights of the SAG Awards

As you know, I'm all about Oscar, but in lieu of the fact that there may not be an awards show to view this year, I got all the fun I could out of viewing the Screen Actors Guild Awards. My favorite moments:
Javier Bardem thanking the Coen brothers for discarding all the takes where he "really sucked"
No Country for Old Men winning Best Ensemble and Josh Brolin saying that they (the Coen brothers) made a freaky little movie, "whether or not you liked the ending"
Julie Christie emphasizing the importance of unions, and saying that if she forgot to thank anybody it was only because she was still in character (she played an alzheimer's victim in Away from Her)
Daniel Day-Lewis paying tribute to Heath Ledger, acknowledging the ending of Brokeback Mountain as one of the most emotional moments he's witnessed on film
Charles Durning was a decorated war hero - who knew?
Tina Fey referring to her costar Alec Baldwin as Fred Astaire, and herself as the hat rack he dances with
Seeing Jon Hamm in the audience (how cute is he??!)
Jane Krakowski at the top of the show when they were doing their reminiscences "....and I'm an actor," saying how acting affords us the opportunity to completely transform ourselves, then saying, "I'm Johnny Depp, and I'm an actor!"
My least favorite moment:
Mickey Rooney pretty much demanding a standing ovation (come to think of it, Ruby Dee did pretty much the same thing, but in a much subtler, classier way)
See you at the Oscars (I hope)!

More actors I love / Actors who irritate

From the ironic (see my post of 1/10/07) on to the laconic:
James Garner --the heartthrob next door
Tommy Lee Jones -- even if everyone else is dead at the end of the movie, you know he'll make it, most of the time, anyway
Clint Eastwood -- most likely to save one from a burning building
-- And if you're thinking from the above that I must have loved the movie Space Cowboys, well, you would be right!BTW, I love Donald Sutherland too, come to think of it (he was also in the movie)
Andy Griffith
Fred MacMurray
(What can I say? I guess I have a thing for 60's TV dads!)
And then there are those actors who just irritate me NO END (but I'm sure it's not them really, more likely it's the parts they play):
Mark Ruffalo
Jeremy Sisto
