SAG Nominations: “Lincoln,” “Silver Linings” Lead the Way, Plus Nicole Kidman As Predicted

The Screen Actors Guild is unveiling its nominees this morning. The nominees for Best Ensemble aka Outstanding Performance by a Cast in A Motion Picture are EXACTLY as I predicted a few days ago in this column:  I called it EXACTLY. http://www.showbiz411.com/2012/12/08/oscar-redux-zero-dark-thirty-is-turning-into-social-network-of-2012 I also told you that Nicole Kidman would be nominated for Best Supporting Actress from”The Paperboy.” http://www.showbiz411.com/2012/11/29/exclusive-oscar-winner-nicole-kidman-on-making-the-paperboy-i-wanted-to-go-to-a-place-that-was-dangerous

“Silver Linings” and “Lincoln” are tied; they become the new front runners as SAG is the best predictor of Oscars. And “Django Unchained”? It was screened too late to make an impact at SAG; no DVD screeners have been mailed. It will make the top 10 Oscar Best Pictures, along with Zero Dark Thirty, Flight, The Master, and The Sessions or Skyfall.
