Jamie Foxx in Ray

Jamie Foxx has won the Screen Actors Guild Award for best actor for his performance in Taylor Hackford's Ray.

Accepting the award he said: "Thank you for Ray Charles for just living so complex and so interesting, and making us all just come together.

"Thank you for Taylor Hackford for taking a chance with an African-American film. Taylor, you're my director of the year."

Picking up the best actress gong for her portrayal of a boxer in Clint Eastwood's Million Dollar Baby, Hilary Swank announced to her director: "I bow down to you. You are a talent beyond compare. If I'm half the person you are and half the talent you are when I'm 74, I will know that I've accomplished something great."

Cate Blanchett won the award for best supporting actress for her role of Katherine Hepburn in The Aviator, while Morgan Freeman took the prize for best supporting actor for Million Dollar Baby.
