In August 2010, she won the Bronze Leopard at the Locarno International Film Festival for her performance in the title role of Stephanie Daley.
This date is wrong. Reliable bios for Tamblyn place her Locarno award for Stephanie Daley with the film’s 2006 festival run, not in August 2010.
Full reasoning
The claim says Tamblyn won the Locarno award in August 2010, but the available reliable biographies tie that award to Stephanie Daley’s 2006 festival run. The Television Academy bio says Stephanie Daley “premiered at the 2006 Sundance Film Festival” and then “went on to the 2006 Locarno International Film Festival,” where Tamblyn received the award. Tamblyn’s official site also identifies the award as being for her performance in Stephanie Daley, a 2006 film. That makes the article’s 2010 date a chronology error.

The film premiered at the 2006 Sundance Film Festival... The film went on to the 2006 Locarno International Film Festival (Golden Bronze Leopard Best Actress Award for Amber).
- About - Amber Tamblyn
Tamblyn starred in The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, The Ring, 127 Hours, and earned a nomination for Best Supporting Female at the 2006 Independent Spirit Awards and Best Actress at Locarno International Film Festival for her performance in Stephanie Daley.
The same year, Tamblyn made a cameo appearance with her father Russ in the Spaghetti Western Django Unchained.
This chronology is off. Tamblyn’s cameo in Django Unchained was in Quentin Tarantino’s 2012 film, not “the same year” as the 2015 Girlfriend’s Day sentence before it.
Full reasoning
The sentence links Tamblyn’s Django Unchained cameo to 2015 by saying “The same year.” But Django Unchained is a 2012 film. The Academy’s 2017 press release about Tamblyn lists her film credits and explicitly names “Django Unchained” (2012). Netflix’s official page for Girlfriend’s Day identifies that movie as 2017, which also underscores that this part of the paragraph’s dating is muddled. The cameo itself is real, but placing it as happening in “the same year” as the surrounding 2015 statement is incorrect.

She was also nominated for a Saturn Award for Best Actress in a Television Series in 2004 and 2005.
This overstates the 2004 result as only a nomination. Tamblyn won the Saturn Award for Best Actress on Television in 2004, and was nominated again in 2005.
Full reasoning
The article says Tamblyn was merely nominated for the Saturn Award in both 2004 and 2005. But contemporary coverage of the 30th Saturn Awards reports that Amber Tamblyn won Best Actress on Television in 2004 for Joan of Arcadia. Separately, IMDb’s awards listing for Tamblyn shows a 2005 Nominee Saturn Award, which matches the article’s awards table below but contradicts the prose sentence. So the prose should distinguish a 2004 win from a 2005 nomination, rather than calling both years nominations.
