Please share. Thank you.

Today, The Winners Were Announced…

The L.A. Film Festival Audience Award for Best Narrative Feature went to Cyrus Nowrasteh’s ‘The Stoning of Soraya M.’ This film was just released, his weekend.

It was a beautiful film, and brutal. I’ll write more about it, specifically, in a bit. I set up interviews with some of the actors, and the director, so stay posted for that…

Documentary Award

The Audience Award for Best Documentary Feature went to Jeffrey Levy-Hinte’s ‘Soul Power’. It’ll be in theaters on July 10th.

Best International Film

Eva Norvind’s ‘Born Without’ won the Audience Award for Best International Feature.

Target Sponsored Two Prizes–To The Tune Of $50,000

The Target Filmmaker Narrative Award went to ‘Wah Do Dem’ (What They Do), by Sam Fleischner and Ben Chace.

The Target Documentary Award was given to Juan Carlos Rulfo and Carlos Hagerman’s ‘Those Who Remain’ (Los Que se Quedan).

Hat tip to my friend, Jeffrey Wells, who has an industry blog called Hollywood-Elsewhere, (link) for the info about the LA Film Fest winners…

And a big bow, too…he allowed me to accompany him for much of the festival, he’s a film brain…

Thanks to Anne Thompson, of Variety’s Thompson On Hollywood Blog, I am posting this list of winners. 

You can have them here, first…

The SAG AWARD NOMINEES were announced this morning. What makes this special, is that the focus is entirely about acting. Actors honoring acting performances. For me, that’s heaven,

And, in case you didn’t know, the SAG AWARDS are regarded, in Hollywood, as a kind of “Oscar E.S.P. ” (Oscar “channeling”?? Acad-Awards telepathy? SAG-The-Soothsayers??!

… Okay, enough…I know!)

Here’s a cheat sheet of all the nominees. Nice and brief.

Just one last thing, before I hit a show and after-holiday-party:

…This “Best Ensemble” category…well, the winner is usually the same movie that wins the Oscar for “Best Picture”, at the (a month later)… Academy Awards. We’ll see about that, this year we’ll check it out together, and I am psyched…
