11:02.5pm -- Oh, that's all, folks! No wacky outtakes so far as I can tell. Well, take it easy, the lot of ya.
11:02pm -- Who's more eager to jump the gun tonight: the orchestra, or the man with his hand on the FCC silencer-o-matic?
11:00pm -- Tom Cruise presenting Best Drama. Winner is... Slumdog Millinah! Not undeserved, but again, a particularly international film striking a chord with an especially foreign press. With the Oscars, who knows, but its Best Picture nomination at least remains a sure thing.
10:58pm -- And here we are, sixty-four minutes into this final hour of ours and counting. I'll stay if you'll stay, folks.
10:53pm -- I can't do Rourke's gratitude justice. Trust me on this. Christ, he's even going on about his dogs, and who's to stop him? That orchestra, of course.
10:51pm -- Best Actor in a Drama would be... drum roll... The Wrestler's Mickey Rourke! F'n A!
10:46pm -- Mad Men. Revolutionary Road. Fifties malaise and titular alliteration. Patterns, people...
10:44pm -- Best TV Drama: Mad Men. I really need to catch up with this friggin' show.
10:42pm -- A deservedly gushy Winslet blows co-star DiCaprio and husband Sam Mendes simultaneously before an audience of thousands(ish). Which is fine, because she's Kate Winslet.
10:39pm -- Cameron Diaz and Mark "Talks to Animals" Wahlberg bumble their way towards Best Actress in a Drama, namely Kate Winslet in Revolutionary Road! Two for two, babe! And prepared speeches to spare. Weeping, apologizing, blanking on Angelina's name... too adorable to bear.
10:35pm -- A lollipop to anyone who can guess just how many two-liter bottles I've filled with urine, Schrute-style, since this broadcast began.
10:31pm -- Best Picture, Comedy or Musical goes to... Vicky Cristina Barcelona. The HFPA: putting the "Foreign" in "Hollywood Foreign Press Assocation" for the past two minutes or so.
10:29pm -- What is Sacha Baron Cohen doing with Lionel Richie's hair?
10:28pm -- Salma Hayek is lovin' up on Vicky Cristina Barcelona. I, meanwhile, can't stop thinking about Wild Wild West for some reason...
10:26pm -- Fun with commercial break quips! "I've been in and out of this post so many times in the past hour that..." (Finish it!)
10:23pm -- Dominique gets points for reminding us, if not the HFPA, that Slumdog was co-directed by Loveleen Tandan. What more can one do...
10:21pm -- Colin Farrell wins Best Actor for In Bruges! And works in a Recount joke along the way. Seems sincere and humble and charming and all those qualities you hope for but rarely get. Again, people: see this movie.
10:19pm -- Though I want to trot out the r-word on Sandra Bullock again, her part this evening is small enough to earn/count as mercy.
10:17pm -- Sigourney shines spotlight on Revolutionary Road.
10:15pm -- Danny Boyle wins Best Director -- Drama for Slumdog Millionaire. Yay! (No one calls them the GG's, though, Danny Boy.)
10:14pm -- I AM into Emma Thompson, though. In all ways proper and platonic, of course.
10:12pm -- I'm just not that into these He's Just Not That Into You spots.
10:09pm -- I love
10:06pm -- "Hollywood is basically incestuous."
10:03pm -- Take a shot every time he says "Cecil B. DeMille."
9:59pm -- Yeah, whoever insists on giving Spielberg flack for his happy endings ought to look at this montage and just shut the eff right up. He'll replace all y'all with walkie-talkies someday.
9:56pm -- If anyone ever wanted to see Scorsese blow Spielberg... there ya go.
9:54pm -- Day 56 of Globes Watch, and the mood is tense! Thankfully, Davis and Weinberg have been able to alleviate the mood with some of their signature snark. And now... well, whatever's next.

some of us aren't actually watching the broadcast, due to us being farther behind than you are. can you tell us who you're referring to instead of just saying "he" or "she" or "they"? Thanks much.

Nice, William. I was thinking "Ere go, Hollywood is clearly an oligarchy" after Spielberg's address, but "incestuous" is much more interesting.

I really really hate that Danny Boyle is getting all the credit for Slumdog Millionaire and his co-director, Loveleen Tandan, is virtually ignored

Cohen needs that hair to crash fashion shows as his alter-ego Bruno for his upcoming movie...

In Bruges winning awards, Eagles going to the NFC championship...today was a good day. And am I the only one who thinks the girl who starred in Slumdog is drop-dead gorgeous? I don't even know what to say about it...she's stunning!

Dear Rainn Wilson,
I love you. That is all.
p.s. Sorry I can never spell your name.

Tandan's IMDB page lists her as the casting director, though the Slumdog page certainly has her as co-director, I bet her role was more or less translating direction given by Boyle to the Indian cast that didn't speak English.

Her IMDB page says Director (co-director: India) as well.
I mean, why give her the credit if she doesn't get any... credit?
1-11-2009 @ 10:59PM
Julie said...
Well, she gets credit in the credits for her part but Boyle was THE director for Slumdog so he gets credit as far as awards go. And like I said before, I imagine her role was more translating Boyle's direction to a non-English speaking Indian cast (since her mention for co-director specifies India) rather than doing any original directing of her own.

Dominique L. said...
Then she shouldn't be credited as a director. But she is! I'm just confused with the credit.

AWESOME! FOR ONCE I GOT MY PREDICTION RIGHT. WINSLET GOES 2 FOR 2. ITS ABOUT TIME SOMEONE RECGNIZED GOOD QUALITY ACTING. WINSLET IS TODAY'S HEPBURN BUT SHE'S GOT MORE SOUL & PERSONALITY.
