## Annette Bening

Here is the lady in her solo shot, looking utterly regal, as I wish she'd looked at the Golden Globes. I'm sort of glad her Clay Aiken hair phase is over, finally. That was a tough time for everyone.

## Annette Bening and Warren Beatty

And here is the couple positioned as equals, each tilting his or her body toward the center, as if neither wants to steal the spotlight.

Ooh! Annette makes an aggressive first move. This is like taking the snap on first-and-10 and hurling the ball downfield toward the end zone. Or maybe more accurately, it's like Warren trying to hurl the ball and Annette being all, "Oh, nice try, but: INTERCEPTION."

And so Warren goes in for a territory-stealing tickle.

OH SNAP. Annette with the brush-off! She's up 2-1 with only one picture to go! CAN SHE DO IT?

NO! Warren gives up and dives into frame, the sheer audacity of which nets him a million points and the victory. Sorry, Annette. Can't wait to see what the BAFTAs bring.

[SAG Awards Well Played: Annette BeningI love this. It makes me sad that Annette Bening didn't beat Natalie Portman -- and thus that she probably won't on Oscar night -- because I think the vagaries of her role in The Kids Are All Right seem like they actually demand more of a finely honed instrument than a showier Am I Going INSAAAANE role does. But what do I know? My piano is two years out of tune, meaning the last finely honed instrument I played was the recorder from my elementary school days that the twins just found hidden in the piano bench. That thing never goes out of tune. Nor style. You haven't lived until you've heard R.Kelly's "In The Kitchen (Remix)" on a recorder. I was like a sex minstrel. None of which has anything to do with Annette, or her Who Gets The Foreground battles with hubby Warren Beatty, except that if he'd had a recorder with him he would've won automatically.![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/static-gofugyourself-com/uploads/2011/02/annettebening108629406.jpg)](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/sag-awards-well-played-annette-bening/)
