The Awards of actors union (SAG, for its acronym in English) are awards that are usually looked at with a magnifying glass, since most of the time it usually gives some clue of what will happen in the next Oscar awards. These will take place on March 27 and, at the moment, are very poorly defined due to the barrage of films released throughout this year.
One of the categories the most doubts it raises is that of Best Actress, since the nominees perform superb performances and some of them are even rated as the best of their entire film career. This is the case of Nicole Kidman, who for ‘Being The Ricardos’ could take the statuette due to the fantastic way of interpreting the comic actress Lucille Ball.
On the other hand, there are many who want this award to be received Kristen Stewart por ‘Spencer’, which would be the first Oscar for the actress, ignored at the recent SAG Awards. On the other hand, we are looking forward to seeing our Spanish actress, Penélope Cruz, receiving her award for ‘Parallel Mothers’, which would be his second Oscar after ‘Vicky, Cristina, Barcelona’.
However, the media spotlight has also focused on another of the nominated actresses, Jessica Chastain, who aspires to become the best in its category for ‘The eyes of Tammy Faye’. Regardless of what happens in March, today we can say that the ‘Interstellar’ actress has received the SAG for Best Actress for this lavish biopic directed by comedian Michael Showalter.
It is a tape that tells the rise and fall of the evangelist televangelist Tammy Faye Bakker, which in the 70s and 80s triumphed on the small screen, starting the most extensive network of religious networks in the United States and enjoyed great popularity. Despite her charisma and personality, she soon found herself tainted for financial problems and other scandals that put an end to his great empire.
To accept her award, Jessica Chastain took to the stage with an impeccable Christian Dior suit in silver color consisting of jacket and pants. With the well-known loose and wavy red hair, as well as diamond earrings and powerful makeup that combines black and sparkles to match her suit, the actress has acknowledged feeling incredulous for having been chosen.
“I am the luckiest person in the world. It was my dream,” He has indicated, before assuring that a large part of that award is due to the talent of the other colleagues and actors around him. “I wanted to be an actress all my life, and ever since I was a child it was the only thing I really thought about. There were years of studying and go to auditions and not get a job,” has revealed, before stating that he knows how defeats feel within the world of the film industry.
Finally, he has launched a message of hope. “For those of you who are fighting and feeling invisible, I just want you to keep going, because you are a movie away, I promise!”, concluded the winner, visibly moved, generating unanimous applause from the room.
