'The Artist' Bags 3 Golden Globes

JAN 16, 2012 - At a show notoriously known as Hollywood's Open-bar Gala, The Artist was the biggest winner of the night with three Golden Globe awards out of six nominated by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. It won Best Picture, Comedy or Musical; Best Actor (for Jean Dujardin) and Best Original Score for Ludovic Bource.

The Descendants went away with two Globes - for Best Picture (Drama) and Best Actor for George Clooney. Martin Scorsese bagged the Best Director award for Hugo; and Meryl Streep is Best Actress (Drama) for The Iron Lady. This is Streep's eighth Golden Globe award - a record. The ceremony also saw Morgan Freeman receiving the Cecille B. DeMille Award presented by Sidney Poitier and Helen Mirren.

The event, held at the Beverly Hills Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles, is hosted for the third time by comedian Ricky Gervais who could not resist holding a beer while hosting the show. His jibes, however, were rather watered down but he is funnier than before.

Here are the winners:
