Kate Winslet won the SAG Award for female actor in a television movie or miniseries Sunday for her role in HBO’s “Mildred Pierce.” Winslet plays title character Mildred Pierce, a Depression-era single mother who longs to provide her snobbish daughter (Evan Rachel Wood) with a better life.

Winslet beat out Diane Lane in HBO’s “Cinema Verite,” Maggie Smith in PBS’s “Downton Abbey,” Emily Watson in the Sundance Channel’s “Appropriate Adult” and Betty White in CBS’ “Hallmark Hall of Fame: The Lost Valentine.”
