Until this year, the only big time film industry awards show I had ever been to was the Independent Spirit Awards and it’s been almost 10 years since the last time – and who can forget Elvis Costello’s “surprise” opening of the show with (“What’s So Funny ’bout) Peace, Love, and Understanding?”). I had never [...]
Here’s a small Marquee Blog post I wrote, over at CNN.com, also, here is the full list of BAFTA nominations, followed by the press release. Enjoy!
2011 NOMINATIONS (presented in 2012) BEST FILM THE ARTIST Thomas Langmann THE DESCENDANTS Jim Burke, Alexander Payne, Jim Taylor DRIVE Marc Platt, Adam Siegel THE HELP Brunson Green, [...]
So I did reasonably well. 18-7. Woody tripped me up, my only wrong guess on the film side, going 13-1 but I went 5-6 on the TV side.
Ooops.
Tilda Swinton and David Bowie, time shifted by 29 years. Thanks for the Photoshopping to John Bernstein!
Tilda Swinton in 2012 and David Bowie in 1983
Thanks for joining me in my Tweet/blog of the Golden Globes and tune in on Thursday as I start in on the 2012 Sundance Film Festival!
7:58 – Ricky Gervais puts a final touch on an uneven night by a last minute mention of the largesse of the evening and how that doesn’t really jibe [...]
6:50 – Ok, two-thirds of the way in and Ricky better up his game. He’s been shockingly tame. And MIA.
6:48 – Shockingly, I have no opinion on The Help, since I haven’t seen it, yet. If Disney wants to send me a screener, I’ll watch it. (Hint. Hint.)
6:42 – Can we please issue [...]
5:53 – My 1st hour scorecard? 5-3. That’s pretty piss poor.
5:52 – Yay! Even Madonna gets played off!
5:48 – Am I wrong in thinking that playing off a non-English speaker because it takes him longer to get the words out in his second language is in bad taste?
5:47 – Another no-brainer, but [...]
Tonight I’ll be blogging the Globes live and splitting my posts into 3 1 hour blocks. Check back often!
4:48pm, PST: Am I crazy or was that Paragard commercial terrifying?
My supplies for tonight’s live blogging of the 69th Golden Globe Awards:
Here’s where I go out on a predictatory (yes, I know it’s not a word, but it should be) limb for the first time this awards season and posit who I think will win each award and sometimes why. Check back here on Sunday, as I update this page live and keep a running tally [...]
One of the great things about awards season is that studios and production companies, at least the cool ones, come up with creative and entertaining ways to draw attention to their films that often also celebrate the art of those films. On Saturday I was privileged enough to be invited to one of these events [...]
