Unlike the Oscars, many people — entertainment journalists, bloggers — look down upon the Golden Globes as a poor cousin of the Oscars. Yet the awards’ broadcast ratings remain high. Unlike the Oscar show breaking into dances, songs and other showy segments, the Globes are about awards (for films and television), celebrities and stargazing.
And like every year there will be more to the Golden Globes: television awards and of course, the fashion parade on the red carpet.
Here are a few nominations in various categories:
