The Help Scores Well At The SAG Awards

While The Artist has been grabbing the awards headlines recently, The Help has been right there with it, in cast terms at least. On Sunday night at the annual Screen Actors Guild Awards, the film scored a triple success, with prizes going to Best Supporting Actress Octavia Spencer, Best Actress Viola Davis and the cast as a whole.

But The Artist wasn't completely shut out: Jean Dujardin scored Best Actor for his performance as silent film star George Valentin.

Elsewhere in the film section, Christopher Plummer scored another award, taking home Best Supporting Actor for Beginners. And Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows actually won something, nabbing Best Stunt Ensemble.

Telly wise, it was also a good night for Boardwalk Empire, which walked away with the Best Drama Cast award and Best Actor for Steve Buscemi. Jessica Lange was Best Drama Actress for American Horror Story while 30 Rock's Alec Baldwin was Best Comedy Actor and Betty White got Best Comedy Actress for cable show Hot In Cleveland. And Modern Family went home with Best Comedy Cast Award.
