Coming off of two successive Oscar nominations, Winona Ryder led an immaculate female ensemble for Jocelyn Moorhouse\u2019s How to Make an American Quilt<\/i>. But instead of furthering Ryder\u2019s mounting Oscar narrative, the film wound up as a surprise SAG Ensemble nominee – and, as Joe and Chris argue, a welcome one. This week, we take a look back at SAG Ensemble\u2019s history, including most and least favorite nominees that didn\u2019t translate to Best Picture nominations.<\/p>\n

The film itself is a (however delightful) mixed bag of infidelity narratives that don\u2019t always serve a top notch ensemble of Ellen Burstyn, Anne Bancroft, Kate Nelligan, Alfre Woodard, Lois Smith, 90s mega hottie Johnathon Schaech – and yep, even Maya Angelou. It may be too many plot threads for a 60-Second Plot Description, but also for one modest movie as well. Topics also include underrated Snatch Game performances, SAG\u2019s silly title card rule for its Ensemble prize, and the reason the MTV Movie Awards should exist: the Best Kiss category.<\/p>\n
