Some notes on the Golden Globes:
-Though Oscarwatch predicted it, I was still surprised over the win of Rachel Weisz (The Constant Gardener). Michelle Williams was the clear favorite. Still, it was always Williams and Weisz duking it out in the precursor critics awards.
-A bigger surprise was the win of Diana Ossana and Larry McMurtry for the screenplay of Brokeback Mountain over the expected winners, Paul Haggis and Bobby Moresco for Crash. Right now, Brokeback Mountain seems unstoppable, with wins for Best Picture-Drama and Best Director (Ang Lee).
-Everything else was rather predictable, though I was seriously rooting for a surprise and delightful win by Kung Fu Hustle for Best Foreign Language Film.
-Geena Davis and Hugh Laurie were hilarious. Ironically, they were winners for Best Actress and Actor, respectively, in Drama. They even upstaged Steve Carrell (Best Actor-Comedy).
