'Silver Linings Playbook' Wins Best Film, Director, Actor and Actress Honors at Satellite Awards

The International Press Academy announced the winners of the 2012 Satellite Awards on Sunday night, giving Silver Linings Playbook a sweep of the four big categories. The movie was dubbed Best Film, with director David O. Russell and stars Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence taking home top acting awards. While Lawrence has been the favorite for the Best Actress Oscar for months now, Cooper has never been a serious candidate. With his string of minor awards and critics' groups honors, I wonder how close Cooper can come to challenge Daniel Day-Lewis, the no-brainer favorite for Best Actor. If only the Academy announced voting breakdown too.
