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 with the economy. Basically, “I hope you all enjoyed the champagne and gold on the food. I hope it took your mind off the recession.” 7:56 – The Descendants wins the final award of the night. Have I mentioned how much I LOVE this movie? Congrats to Alexander Payne, Fox Searchlight and a fantastic cast and crew. 7:55 – Harrison Ford only has to say 16 words, so if he was drunk, he skated. 7:49 – Clooney wins. Again, my favorite film of the year. 7:48 – Can we PLEASE have an actress who doesn’t look 25 lbs underweight? Sometimes I hate this business. 7:39 – Too bad The Iron Lady is a bad film and Margaret Thatcher was an horrific Prime Minister. 7:37 – Meryl says “shit” and then proceeds to give big props to the amazing year in female performances that 2011 was. Nice to see David Bowie circa 1983 there (Tilda Swinton). 7:32 – I ADORE Queen Lateefah. All Hail The Queen! 7:24 – Michelle Pfeiffer looks fantastic. War Horse is still fucking boring. 7:20 – Maybe the best acceptance speech, ever. Steve Levitan FTW. 7:19 - Modern Family routinely makes me laugh out loud. Then again, I’m usually 3 or 4 drinks in by the time I watch it. 7:16: What did Ricky just say? UPDATE: I wasn’t watching, but apparently he said: “I couldn’t understand a fucking thing they said.” 7:13 – Angelina looks like a flight attendant on Needs a Sandwich Airways. 7:11 – This show needs an injection of fun. 7:05 – At least I have some time to get some cheese. 6:57 – I’m 11 – 7 in my predicitons. Pretty horrible. 6:56 – I love Sydney but this is where the show grinds to a halt. 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 a moratorium on Bridesmaids/poop jokes? 6:38 – Time for another drink. 6:36 – Claire Danes is maybe the most deserving winner of the night. An absolutely fantastic performance in Homeland. If you haven’t seen this show, watch it, now! 6:33 – A Separation is a magnificent film. So very happy for Asgahar Farhadi and Sony Pictures Classics. 6:31 – Madonna’s can’t really ad lib. 6:25 – I love Jessica Lange and think she’s pretty amazing in American Horror Story but Dame Maggie deserved this one. 6:23 – Felicity Huffman & Willian H. Macy just became the cutest couple EVER. 6:22 – The Woodman Doesn’t Cometh, but wins! 6:15 – The Adventures of Tintin was another obvious win. It’s a HUGE series everywhere in the world. On a personal note, another one I got right. I’m 8 for 12, so far. 6:13 – Two actors who will never win a Golden Globe: Jessica Alba and Channing Tatum! 6:11 – I have a story about me and Peter Dinklage, but I am not going to tell you. Congrats! 6:01 – In 2 seconds, Seth Rogan manages to upstage Ricky Gervais! Presenting with Kate Beckinsale: “Hello, I’m Seth Rogan and I am currently trying to conceal a massive erection.” Beckinsale is completely knocked off her game! He also ad-libs, pointing out that My Week With Marilyn is not exactly a comedy. 5:58 – HOORAY! Idris Elba wins for Luther! Why was Luther the only nominee without a production company listed? 5:58 – Here we go! Hour two of the 69th Golden Globe Awards!
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 I actually think The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo deserved it. 5: 46 – If The Artist wins best score, is Kim Novak going to storm the stage? 5:44 – I am feeling extremely Ricky-deprived, right now. 5:40 – Homeland wins! I’ve never been happier to be wrong. Well, maybe not never but you get the point! 5:38 – I guess TV Guide was right. The HFPA doesn’t like Breaking Bad and they love Frasier! 5:36 – Do you think Steve Buscemi has given up on anyone ever pronouncing his name correctly? 5:32 – How to blog the Golden Globes:  Mmmmmm.....
5:26 – Boo! When are producers going to learn that no one likes it when their favorite celeb gets played off! 5:24 – Kate Winslet wins for Mildred Pierce. The GG are really much easier to predict, for the most part, than the Oscars. 3 obvious winners out of 4 (maybe all 4 and I was just clueless about Laura Dern). 5:22 – The second no-brainer of the evening, Downton Abbey wins for Best Miniseries. LOVE! 5:20 – Talk about low rent! 20 minutes in and the teleprompter fucks up! Rob Lowe looks fantastic. Dorian Gray, indeed. 5:18 – A Velveeta ad? Low rent, much? 5:13 – My prediction? Laura Linney. The winner? Laura Dern. Ooops. Wow. Who did Zoey Deschanel’s hair? I love her, but…. 5:10pm – I’m 1 for 1, as Christopher Plummer picks up the first award of the evening for Beginners. 5:07 – Johnny Depp admits he hasn’t seen The Tourist yet and the show starts off with a thud. No award? We start with a clip reel from Hugo? 5:06 – 3rd joke at NBC’s expense. OUCH. 5:00pm – Ricky is killing….Kim Kardashian is the first and most deserving casualty of the night.
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 of my successes or lack thereof. Best Motion Picture – DramaThe Descendants-Will win/Should win: I’m banking on the HFPA’s love of all things Clooney, here. Not only that, but its my favorite film of the year. - My review WINNER!! My latest CNN.com review, We Need To Talk About Kevin
 Tilda Swinton in "We Need To Talk About Kevin"-- Photo © Oscilloscope
On Monday night I was among a relatively privileged few that were invited to a special screening of Joe Berlinger and Bruce Sinofsky’s Paradise Lost 3: Purgatory that was held at CAA, with Berlinger and one of the West Memphis 3, Jason Baldwin, in attendance for a Q&A, following the screening. After seeing the Paradise Lost films and knowing the story, just seeing Jason out of prison and as a grown man, hearing him speak about life before, during and after his incarceration…I can’t really describe the feelings. Relief at their release, anger at the State of Arkansas and a profound sadness that things like this, the railroading of three young men in such a brazen and disgusting manner can and do happen in the United States. The film airs tonight at 9pm on HBO. Watch it, you’ll thank me! Here are a couple of short videos from the Q&A. IN the first, Jason talks a little bit about life after prison and in the second he touches on just a couple of things that he’s noticed in his day-to-day life after prison. Here’s a video clip of Michael Giacchino conducting an orchestra playing a suite from the landmark TV series Lost. My apologies for the orientation. It was a combination of a new phone (first video shot on it) and being entranced by the music! http://vimeo.com/34870121 |
