The Screen Actors Guild Awards (SAG) will air tomorrow night on TNT and TBS at 8pm. This is a live event that is all about peer-voted awards for both film and television, and often paves the way for the Oscars and the Emmys.
However the SAG awards focus only on acting and none of the other parts of film and television work.
A special feature of the night will be the presentation of the Life Achievement Award to the incomparable James Earl Jones. A man whose sonorous and well modulated voice and has added flavor to stage and film classics as Othello, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, The Great White Hope, King Lear, The Lion King, Star Wars, and one of my favorite Jones projects, Field of Dreams.
