Yesterday, Helen Mirren took the stage in Hamburg, Germany, to accept the Lifetime Achievement Award of the Goldene Kamera, Germany’s biggest honor for film, television, music and culture. This appearance was a bit of a surprise since I didn’t know she was announced as a recipient, so even better to see so many new pictures. Plus, the complete segment of her honor (introduced by German “Trumbo” co-star Christian Berkel, who played Otto Preminger) can be watched in the video archive. The speech, which has been dubbed in German but is still possible to be heard, featured some wonderful remarks on being an emigrant herself and thanking her German dubbing voice for giving half her performance.

Helen Mirren has attended the Screen Actors Guild Awards yesterday as a triple nominee for Best Supporting Actress and Ensemble for “Trumbo” and Lead Actress for “Woman in Gold”. The trophies went to Alicia Vikander, Spotlight and Brie Larson. Still, what a great honor for last year’s work to be mentioned three times. Helen took the stage anyway, alongside Bryan Cranston and Diane Lane, to introduce the segment for “Trumbo”. Pictures from the red carpet and the show have been added to the photo gallery, with more to come. Edit: Hundreds of additional pictures plus two video clips from the ceremony and the arrivals have been added. Scroll down for a complete list.
