No Surprises At Golden Globes Awards

JAN 17, 2011 - The Golden Globes Awards at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles last night offered no surprises as far as movies are concerned. Predictably, The Social Network took Best Movie; Colin Firth got Best Actor, Natalie Portman is Best Actress, etc, and I am quite sure these will be the picks of the Oscars too.

The TV section of the awards showed that the Hollywood Foreign Press Association favoured newcomers rather than the 'veterans' in the awards. This especially applies to 'Glee' which won three, including Best TV Series, Comedy or Musical.
