The Golden Globes were pretty good...merits aside, I am not happy about the idea of homophobic asshole Mickey Rourke winning this and possibly an Oscar based on Hollywood's love of the comeback (especially over Sean Penn), but it was downright shocking that Kate Winslet won both acting awards. I figured she'd never win for Best Actress anyway, let alone on the heels of winning for Best Supporting Actress, but I think the competition among the leads (male and female) this year could mean similar surprises at the Oscars. (I would have chosen Anne Hathaway.) I'm pleased that Slumdog was given a huge boost by winning all four of the awards for which it was nominated, and I hope the Oscars won't react against that as they did with Brokeback and will reward the film with the Best Picture prize it deserves.
