Atonement
Okay, thanks to the Writers strike there might not have been the glamorous do we normally expect from the Golden Globes this year but there were winners. And with the Oscars just a month away they’ve always served as a good indicator as to who’s in line for the big one. Here are this year’s big winners...
Best Film -- Atonement
Keira Knightley,James McAvoy,celebrity news,hollywood,golden globe
Keira Knightley
Though Keira Knightley and Jame McAvoy missed out on the individual honours for their part in this sumptuous period drama love story they should still feel pleased with themselves. And knowing how much the Oscars voters love a custom drama the smart money will be going on this big screen version of Ian McEwan classic book to pick up a golden statue next month.
Best Actor - Daniel Day Lewis

Cate Blanchett
Looking at her Cate Blanchett probably wasn’t the first person the casting department thought of when looking for someone to play Bob Dylan. By choosing to her to play mumblin’ Bob in quirky biopic I’m Not There proved an inspired choice.
Best animated feature -- Ratatouille

Ratatouille
With their track (Toy Story, Monsters Inc, Finding Nemo, etc) they should just give these awards straight to Pixar every year. No one can touch them, expect their next offering Wall-E to win this award next year.

David Duchovny
When X files finished you’d be forgiven for thinking the glory days were over for David Duchovny but he found his groove playing a sex obsessed writer in Californication. Next on the cards in stepping back into Fox Mulder’s shoes for a big screen X Files film – so everything really does go in circles huh.
