Saltzman Sees...The Help (2011)

The Help won my Best Actress (Viola Davis), Best Supporting Actress (Octavia Spencer) and Best Screenplay (Tate Taylor and Kathryn Stockett) and was nominated for Best Supporting Actress (Jessica Chastain) in 2011.

This is one of the strongest female casts ever assembled.  From leads Viola Davis and Emma Stone, to up and coming talents Octavia Spencer, Jessica Chastain, Bryce Dallas Howard and Aunjanue Ellis. What makes the cast so strong is the veteran talents of Sissy Spacek, Allison Janney, and Cicely Tyson.

Saltzman Sees...Being John Malkovich (1999)

Being John Malkovich won my Best Supporting Actress (Catherine Keener) and was nominated for Best Director (Spike Jonze), Best Actress (Cameron Diaz) and Best Screenplay (Charlie Kaufman) in 1999.
