I can't recall.....is this the awards show that's primarily an ass-kissing, back-scratching popularity fest? It must be, since establishment fave SJ Parker got a nom for what looks like a real piece of disposable junk, Family Stone.

FWIW, it's the Foreign Press.

Well, yeah...but the GG are so much more entertaining than the Oscars because the attendees drink before and during the show, so you never know what somebody's going to say or do!

The Golden Globe people consist of about 90 mostly male oversees entertainment writers. The same group that gave Pia Zidora an award after her husband paid for it. They don't have credibility - although sometimes they do predict the Oscars correctly.

It would be great if father and son won.
