Oh we love a parade! Especially an awards show parade of dazzling movie and teevee stars all dressed up! And the Hollywood Foreign Press Association’s Golden Globes–which have radically diverged from the Academy Awards this year in the Best Director category. I kinda thought Django Unchained was a comedy (and it would have swept in that category, though hard toss up between Leonardo DiCaprio and Christoph Waltz as to who was the Best Supporting Actor no matter if it’s comedy or drama). And Philip Seymour Hoffman was brilliant in The Master. Alan Arkin in Argo–that may be the winner. It’s hard to say with the Globes/HFPA, a strange bunch who have managed to turn their little awards gig into the major event of the pre-Oscars awards season.
So join us now! Tune into the Globes (on NBC) as we let rip the bon mots and shred the arrivals.
