This year’s nominations for the Golden Globes were pretty predictable, as expected, but there were some snubs. For television, Entourage wasn’t recognized at all for the excellent season they just had, and for foreign film, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo wasn’t recognized for any of the three films which came out this year. As for nationwide films opening this year, there was no sign of the Coens and their latest film, True Grit as well as Sean Penn for supporting actor for Fair Game. It was a bit shocking that Danny Boyle was snubbed for Best Director for 127 Hours. It would have been nice to have seen Sam Rockwell for Conviction or Edward Norton for Stone. One of the biggest disappointments was the complete snub for the absolutely perfect The American, starring George Clooney. The King’s Speech leads the nominations with seven.
