The independent hit Everything Everywhere All At Once swept Sunday night’s Screen Actors Guild Awards, taking the best ensemble award and three other trophies for its cast.
With its four wins, the multidimensional dramedy became the biggest winner in the 29 years of the SAG Awards, considered an important harbinger for the Oscars, as actors make up the biggest voting bloc in the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
'Everything Everywhere All at Once' winners
Jamie Lee Curtis, James Hong, Stephanie Hsu, Ke Huy Quan, Harry Shum Jr., Jenny Slate and Michelle Yeoh collected the SAG ensemble prize (the equivalent of the guild’s best picture award). In addition, Everything Everywhere All at Once was recognized for best lead actress for Yeoh, supporting actor for Quan, and Curtis for supporting actress.
“This is not just for me,” Yeoh said in her acceptance speech. “This is for every little girl who looks like me…..So many of us need this. We want to be seen. We want to be heard.”
