The cast of American Hustle have
taken the top prize at the Screen Actors Guild Awards in Los Angeles, setting
up the film as the one to beat at the Oscars.
The con-artist comedy from director David O Russell won the
award for outstanding cast, although it won no individual acting awards and
only Jennifer Lawrence was nominated for her supporting role.
Bradley Cooper accepted the award on behalf of the cast, and
praised the director with whom they have all worked previously.
"He is an actor's director," said Cooper. "That
notion is tossed around; he is the embodiment of it. He's the reason why all of
us wanted to become actors when we were children."
On the small screen, best drama went to cult series Breaking Bad
and best comedy to Modern Family.
There was British success for Dame Helen Mirren who was named
best actress in a TV movie or miniseries for her role as a lawyer in the biopic
Phil Spector.
And Maggie Smith, who plays Dowager Countess of Grantham in
Downtown Abbey, won the prize for best actress in a TV drama series.
Dame Helen joked her male statue trophy was "sexy" and
she didn't "feel at all saggy" adding "I feel quite perky".
