The Screen Actors Guild held the 2017 SAG Awards tonight, and if you thought the Sundance Awards and the Golden Globes were political, you haven't seen anything yet. Certainly, the current political climate wasn't far from the minds of any of the winners and led to a number of emotional speeches. So look out for when the Academy Awards come around because it's guaranteed to get heated.
Of all of the winners on the movie side, the only big surprise was Denzel Washington winning Best Actor over the assumed frontrunner, Casey Affleck. With Viola Davis also winning Best Supporting Actress we could be seeing a momentum shift for Fences.
Check out the full list of winners below, followed by a couple of the more touching acceptance speeches.
