About the Annual SAG Awards:
Lauded by critics for its style, simplicity and genuine warmth, the Screen Actors Guild Awards ® presented by SAG-AFTRA, which made its debut in 1995, has become one of the industry’s most prized honors. The only televised awards shows to exclusively honor performers, it presents thirteen awards for acting in film and television in a fast moving two hour show which airs live on TNT and TBS. The awards focus on both individual performances as well as on the work of the entire ensemble of a drama series and comedy series, and the cast of a motion picture. These honors are fundamental to the spirit of the Screen Actors Guild Awards ® because they recognize what all actors know – that acting is a collaborative art.

'Standing here on the shoulders of my favourite actor, Heath Ledger', a deck always has two Jokers.

[nb]

He celebrated his win by celebrating the performances of his colleagues. Humble.

[qriusmeerkat]

Joaquin Phoenix: Hates compliments
Wins an award: Compliments others

[itsaashish]

"I'm standing on the shoulders of Heath Ledger." Priceless.

[jofficial]

who cares about the oscar, this guy is already won the public opinion

[SamueITan]

I feel like Joaquin's one of those few people who went into acting and showbiz not for the glitz and glamour but to express himself, like an artist.

[aniruddhasen]

He is such a humble person...he praised Leo, Christian...and many others...except himself...

[_carmencita_]

Nominated 5 times before, won for the 1st time today. And he only talked about how great his co nominees are in his entire speech. Its as if he’s shy to acknowledge his own greatness. Gotta love him.

[leothegreat]

Which actor does go out with such humble presence admiring other fellow actors, in reference to great modivation to be a better actor, only Joaquin Phoenix. Getting closer to the oscar

[johnrigs]

This was just such a beautiful gracious speech-this man just won the SAG award and instead of focusing on himself, he uses his entire time to individually praise each of his fellow nominees.
Incredible class by an amazing actor...

[muhammadnabilhakimi]

If Heath Ledger still alive, he would be proud Joaquin Phoenix win all award

[CanadianxGirl]

the fact that he praised leonardo dicaprio and acknowledged his greatness, considering that leonardo looked up to river phoenix and basically dedicates his career to river, is incredibly beautiful. i know river is proud.

[WaterWalkers]

The guy wins and talks about other people instead of himself, he is so humble imao

[amangoyal]

Golden Globes - Environment
Critics Choice - Mother
SAG - Heath Ledger
Oscars - River
He's saving the bests.

[oopopp]

"No Actor would ever say his name because it was too much."
"But every casting director would whisper....it's Leonardo."

[parthantal]
