Rooney Mara & Shailene Woodley: SBIFF Virtuosos!

Rooney Mara and Shailene Woodley arrive at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival‘s Virtuosos Award Tribute held at the Arlington Theater on Friday (February 3) in Santa Barbara, Calif.

The 26-year-old actress was honored “for her dark and provocative performance as Lisbeth Salander in The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo,” while Shailene, 20, was recognized for “bringing an emotional complexity to a character rarely seen at her age in The Descendants.”

The two actresses are expected at this year’s Academy Awards, where both of their films are nominated for Best Picture.

Rooney is also in the running for Best Actress with Glenn Close, Viola Davis, Meryl Streep, and Michelle Williams!

FYI: Rooney is wearing a Louis Vuitton dress with Giambattista Valli shoes. Shailene paired her 3.1 Phillip Lim dress with Pierre Hardy shoes.
