Kevin Bacon accepts his SAG Award for best actor in a television movie or miniseries from Jon Hamm. Bacon won for Taking Chance, a drama about the return of a dead soldier's body to his hometown. Hamm won an Actor as well, for being part of the Mad Men ensemble.
Below are best supporting actor winner Christoph Waltz, best supporting actress nominee Diane Kruger, and Inglourious Basterds director Quentin Tarantino. Kruger lost the supporting actress award to Mo'Nique (for Precious), but she did take an Actor statuette home for being part of the Basterds ensemble.
"On behalf of the entire cast of Inglourious Basterds," Eli Roth said at the podium, "we want to say thank you to Mr. Quentin Tarantino for what you did for this film. A year ago we all sat down in Berlin and we read through the script. We all sat around and we saw that Quentin had pulled together actors from Ireland and from Austria and from France and from Newton, Massachusetts and from Germany and from New York and from the Fangoria Convention, and pulled together such a wonderful, wonderful cast. We all felt it was really something special. So it was an honor to be a part of it, Quentin."
There are approximately 120,000 Screen Actors Guild members. How many actually cast ballots for the SAG Awards is a mystery.
