Kate Winslet and husband Sam Mendes have both been nominated for their film 'Revolutionary Road' as well as Kate's nomination for Best Supporting Actress for her role in 'The Reader' -- "The Insider" has the actress' reaction!

Kate has been nominated for Best Actress in a Motion Picture for 'Revolutionary Road' and Sam is up for Best Director for the same film.

"Playing April Wheeler and Hannah Schmitz, two strong and complex characters was a true gift. To be recognized by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association for both performances is a genuine honor and I am incredibly grateful. I am forever thankful to my husband Sam Mendes, [Leonardo DiCaprio] and fellow cast members and for Justin [Haythe's] beautiful script. I am equally proud to share this day with Stephen Daldry and David Hare."

Kate's film 'The Reader' follows the story of a man a decade after his affair with an older woman. Their relationship came to a mysterious end and law student Michael Burk encounters his former lover years later as she defends herself in a war-crime trial.

'Revolutionary Road' is a story about a couple living in the mid-1950's and struggling to deal with their personal problems while raising a family. Click here to see Leo's reaction to being nominated for Best Actor in a Motion Picture.
