Kate Winslet has had heaps of praise during her career and has been oft-nominated for Golden Globes, SAGs, and Oscars, but she's never won any of them. Her first wins against major competition I think is what floored her. I find it completely understandable. After years of showing up (and sometimes being the favorite as in SENSE AND SENSIBILITY), and to go home empty handed, it shocking to finally hear your name called.
