The 2011 Golden Globes was all about drama. Specifically, a movie that chronicles the drama of amassing 500 million friends („The Social Network“), a television show that explores high-school drama via catchy song-and-dance numbers („Glee“) and a ballerina’s dramatically gruesome descent into madness („Black Swan“) were among the big winners Sunday night – January 16,2011.
The British comedian and creator of The Office, Ricky Gervais, hosted an evening of glitz and glamour for a second successive year.
„The Social Network“ scored one of the two big film honors of the night, „Best Motion Picture – Drama,“ as well as Best Screenplay, Best Director and Best Original Score. „Glee„ ran things on the television side, taking home Best Television Series – Comedy or Musical, while Chris Colfer and Jane Lynch nabbed best supporting actor and actress wins.
Natalie Portman, Christian Bale, Melissa Leo and Colin Firth are kicking off awards season with twin best acting trophies from both the Globes and Friday’s Critics’ Choice Awards.
The Golden Globe awards are voted for by the 83 HFPA members, who also organize the ceremony and co produce the show with The Dick Clark Productions. More than 19 million viewers tuned in to watch the show last year on NBC, and many expect this number to be even higher this year.
The Golden Globe Awards ceremony is the biggest and most glamorous event in Hollywood calendar. The awards are considered by the industry as the best indicators for next month’s Oscars.
