他们说一个好演员的标志是他们能够不断惊讶你。桑德拉哦昨晚赢得了SAG奖励,这并不奇怪,因为她今年已经席卷了每一阶段,而且我肯定有人想追溯到去年的艾美的艾美。

It’s maybe mildly surprising that she’s still so emotional about her wins – after all, as she points out in her own speech, she’s been doing this for a long, long time, and she’s been acclaimed as an actor (even within Canada, which, believe us, is a tough sell) almost as long. You’d think she might be pretty confident and assured that she’s got some sort of talent, but then again, she keeps leveling up, working in more and more rarefied spaces, so I don’t feel like her emotion is anything other than genuine.

这是桑德拉哦的令人惊讶的是,是什么让她对我们的娱乐谈话至关重要:

You know without a doubt that the three people she mentioned in her speech are not the only ‘bold-faced names’ to tell her to keep going: Alfre Woodard in 1997, Jamie Foxx in 2006, and Lena Waithe in 2017. It’s categorically impossible. But those are the names she chooses to recall, complete with dates that I bet are factually accurate.

In one 30 second speech, she proves that she remembers the people who have encouraged her at times when she needed it most (and reminds us what we need to hear – don’t underestimate the effect of the casual words you say to someone, especially if they’re positive). She mentions not the ‘biggest’ names going, but the ones who meant the most to her – and in so doing, she raises the profile of three people of colour who are ‘my fellow actors’, even if they aren’t there that particular night. “We fight the same fight.” She’s used an acceptance speech to further their visibility, to remind everyone watching of how much more of a challenge she’s had to face – they’ve all had to face – to get to that rarefied place. The same speeches we’ve heard used, countless times, to thank agents, executives, and Judith, the accountant.

桑德拉哦是有才华的,她是勤奋的 - 但她令人惊讶,因为她从来没有做过你所期望的,特别是如果有一个更有趣的选择和更诚实的选择。
