68th Golden Globe Awards Winners

They don't exactly carry the cache of the Oscars, but the 68th annual Golden Globe Awards were handed out last night in America, and there were good results for several films, including The Social Network (which took the drama screenplay, score, director and film awards) and The King’s Speech (a somewhat unsurprising drama actor win for Colin Firth).

Ricky Gervais was the host for the evening, his second stint behind the podium for the Globes, and he started as he meant to go on, launching a torrent of gags about Charlie Sheen, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association’s recent financial scandals and various subjects that had the crowd alternately chuckling and jeering. Not sure if he’ll be invited back next year, but at least he made a stab at getting beyond the usual bland backslapping. And let’s face it – when you hire Gervais for a second time, and allow him to drink again, what do you really expect?

But back to the awards themselves - it was a good night for The Kids Are All Right, which nabbed the comedy/musical picture award and the comedy/musical actress gong for Annette Bening. Paul Giamatti was more of a surprise, taking comedy/musical actor for Barney’s Version, while Natalie Portman continued her awards swoop with dramatic actress for Black Swan.

In the supporting categories, Christian Bale took the dramatic actor statuette, with Melissa Leo as actress, both from The Fighter. Toy Story 3, meanwhile, nabbed best animated feature. Oh, and even Burlesque shimmied home with one gong, best original song for Diane Warren’s You Haven’t Seen the Last of Me.

In TV-land, Glee was the ceremony’s big winner, nabbing the musical/comedy show award, actor (Chris Colfer) and actress (Jane Lynch).

Sex Tape Review: Overly Sexual, Rude, Vulgar, and Absolutely Hilarious

The raunchy Sex Tape will divide audiences and critics, but who cares? Sex Tape suggests a growing practice among loving partners: that of making a raunchy testament of their escapades for posterity. But what happens when that evidence gets seen by friends, neighbors, and even the mailman? This is the plot that pits Jay (Jason Segel) and Annie (Cameron Diaz) in an effort to secure every iPad gift Jay has given, his record company playlists being the envy of the recipients, but which has also inadvertently spread the video to every device. The reason for the act - termed in the movie as pulling "the full Lincoln " for its three-hour length - stems from the couple's non-existent social life, brought on by the constant demands of their children. The couple has a lot to lose: a burgeoning business relationship between Annie and Hank (Rob Lowe) could end if the iPad she's given to Hank exposes the video, and so the couple sets out to reclaim and wipe the incrim...
