BERLINALE JURORS GET THE MESSAGE
Message films duly delivered at the Berlin Film Festival Saturday as the top Golden Bear award went to the Brazilian film The Elite Squad about a corrupt and violent police squad that tortured and sometimes killed drug suspects. The runner-up Silver Bear award -- the Grand Jury Prize -- went to Errol Morris's documentary, Standard Operating Procedure, about the Abu Ghraib prison scandal. Paul Thomas Anderson received the best director award for There Will Be Blood, based on Socialist novelist Upton Sinclair's novel about the turn-of-the-century oil industry. The best actor award went to Iran's Reza Naji for his performance in The Song of Sparrows, while British actress Sally Hawkins took the actress award for her role in Mike Leigh's comedy Happy-Go-Lucky.
