The Kodak Theatre press room was full of smiling faces last night, as the 2008 Academy Award winners basked in the glory of their accomplishments.

Taking best picture honors was the Coen Brothers’ hit film, No Country For Old Men - which was thought to be a front-runner from the event’s onset.

The 2008 Screen Actors Guild awards have come and gone, and the winners of this year's ceremony took even the biggest movie buffs by surprise.

The top honors for Best Performance by a Male Actor in a Leading Role went to Daniel Day Lewis for his role in There Will Be Blood, while the top leading lady ended up being Julie Christie for her work in Away From Her.

It’s that all-important night when the infamous Hollywood critics get their chance to make their voices heard. And the Critics’ Choice Awards (held at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium last night) was marked with great-looking celebrities and even greater recognition of some amazing work.

Everyone’s favorite Scientolo-wife Katie Holmes was rocking her bangy-hairdo atop an interesting off-shoulder, burlap sack-looking dress. Meanwhile, Amanda Bynes elected to wear a purple thigh-length belted dress with some super high-heels.
