Screen Actors Guild Awards 2003 

The Screen Actors Guild Awards 2003 is over and it is clear with Daniel Day-Lewis' win that everyone is happy to see this great actor back on the screen.  He accepted his award by honoring his fellow actors and nominees.  He also revealed his secret dream of one day starring in the tradition of motion pictures.  His dream has come true and he has been honored with the highest awards the industry has to offer.  He also talks about his early beginnings of watching "all-nighter" movies and how his secret wish was to be a part of the movies.  Day-Lewis does well to give a brief story, because as any public speaker knows, telling stories is a great tool to keep your audience interested in your speech.

Another interesting note about Day-Lewis is that he was wearing a deep, purple suit, not like the usual black and white.  This is daring and it pushes the envelope, like he does in his acting.  

Other winners included Renee Zellweger for best actress in a leading role for her work in Chicago.  This is well deserved.  She was all bubbly happy as she accepted her award.  Her excitement was clear because she was not quite on her right mind when she simply called Pierce Brosnan, "Mr. Bond."  Brosnan announced her win and because her thoughts were scattered, she could not pin down Brosnan's name.

Should there be a rare chance that Zellweger does not win the Oscar, she can have another opportunity in Cinderella Man, opposite Russell Crowe.  These actors together will be exciting to watch.

While Zellweger is all bubbly excitement, Catherine Zeta-Jones is all elegance.  She is beautiful in her rich, purple dress, which shows a woman's natural power and strength of motherhood.  

In conclusion, award shows provide an opportunity for the fans to see their favorite performers outside of their characters in their films.
