SAG Nominations Announced

No Country for Old Men

No Country for Old Men is my personal favorite movie of the year. If you haven’t seen it yet, do yourself a favor and watch it tonight. It’s the most quietly-intense movie I’ve seen in ages, thanks in part to the flawless editing, lack of soundtrack, and psycho killer Anton Chigurh (Javier Bardem).

Other movies and shows got nominated too, but I’m here to sing the praises of No Country for Old Men. There Will Be Blood should be great, but I’ll have to wait until December 26 to find out for sure.

In any event, here are the SAG nominations for the best films and shows of 2007, picked by a panel of experts that enjoy quirky comedies and thick drama (and in some cases, great movies and shows).

Check out the nominees after the jump.
