Though there have been numerous ties at the nominations level, this was the only year to date when there was a tie in the final voting, between Kim Basinger (LA Confidential) and Gloria Stewart (Titanic) for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Supporting Role in a Motion Picture. The 1998 broadcast also featured a special clip tribute to background performers. Life Achievement Award recipient Elizabeth Taylor was a last-minute no-show due to a back injury; Gregory Peck accepted for her. The 4th Annual SAG Awards marked the broadcast's shift from NBC to TNT, where it has flourished.
With more than a million titles, it isn't feasible to handpick recommendations for every film. That's why we came up with a formula to suggest titles that fit along with the selected one. The formula uses factors such as user votes, genre and keywords to generate an automatic response. The system produces relevant results most of the time but since recommended titles are not manually chosen, occasionally they may include less than perfect matches.
