Frustrated (Actor &) Casting Director

Very impressive and exciting to see Mark among those six! (However, this performance was an off-Broadway performance).

Thank you, Wallace Shawn, for some actual sanity. I totally agree.

A SAG win is basically equivalent to an Oscar win, as the Screen Actors Guild is the body of Academy members, who cast the votes for the acting categories at the Oscars.  Unfortunately, the fact that Mark’s work was in a limited series, kept it from being eligible for an Oscar nomination.  This is the next best thing, though. I was thrilled.  I felt like Mark was finally being taken seriously by the industry.  It felt like he had finally made his mark (no pun intended).

Congratulations to Mark for not only securing an Emmy win as Best Actor in a TV Film or Mini Series, for his roles as Thomas and Dominick Birdsey in “I Know This Much is True,” but for snagging two Best Actor nominations in one week, with recognition from the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (Golden Globes), and another from the Screen Actors’ Guild.  Fingers crossed that he does as well with these nominations, as he did with the Emmy!

This shot is too cute! :)
