Golden Globes

It was already inching in that direction, but last night Slumdog Millionaire pole vaulted to the top of the Oscar race, taking home four Golden Globes including best director and best dramatic picture.

Vicky Cristina Barcelona won best comedy/musical movie.

Heath Ledger won his expected award for supporting actor.

Sally Hawkins won best actress in a comedy for Happy-Go-Lucky.

Mickey Rourke beat out Sean Penn and Frank Langella for best actor in a drama.

Colin Farrell was somewhat surprising winning best actor in a comedy for In Bruges.

The highlight, for me, was Kate Winslet winning not one but two Golden Globes for best actress in a drama and best supporting actress. This will hopefully be the year she brings home her first Oscar.

Ten days until Oscar nominations...
