The Golden Globes aired tonight and there were winners scattered among a variety of movies and TV series.  A common theme of the award show was the global community we live in – it was clear that the people of Haiti were on everyone’s mind.  Ricky Gervais hosted and ranged from funny to mildly offensive.  Avatar did take home top honors for Best Motion Picture Drama and Best Director for James Cameron.  Martin Scorsese was honored with the Cecile B. DeMille Lifetime Achievement Award.  Sandra Bullock took home Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture – Drama for The Blind Side. Meryl Streep was double nominated in the category Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture – Comedy/Musical for her role in Julie & Julia and It’s Complicated. It was her role as Julia Child that won her the Golden Globe and she gave a truly touching and sincere acceptance speech – true class.  Jeff Bridges won Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture – Drama for his role in Crazy Heart.  One of my favorite shows, Mad Men won for Best Television Series – Drama. Dexter also won big, with Michael C. Hall winning for Best Performance by an Actor in a Television Series – Drama and John Lithgow won Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role in  Series, Mini-Series or Motion Picture Made for Television for his role as the Trinity Killer in the series.  A surprise win for me was The Hangover, which was up against other big movies in the category Best Motion Picture – Comedy or Musical.

Some of the fashion notables were: Chloë Sevigny (also a winner for her role in Big Love), Penélope Cruz, Heather Graham, Sandra Bullock, Jennifer Garner, Chace Crawford, George Clooney, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Diane Kruger and Carey Mulligan.
