66th Annual Golden Globe Awards

Stasera alle 2:00, ora italiana, al Beverly Hotel verranno assegnati i premi Golden Globe ai nominati nelle diverse categorie che riguardano i film e i telefilm visti durante buona parte del 2008. Alcuni film sono ancora sconosciuti in Italia, ma hanno già date di uscita.
I Golden Globe sono ormai considerati più importanti degli Oscar per diversi motivi. Ma sono i GG ad aver aquistato maggior valore e sono gli Oscar ad aver raggiunto un più basso orami legato solo ad un fatto commerciale e vincolato da diversi modi e pensieri di approcciarsi al cinema?? ci sarebbe molto da parlare, ma questa è la giornata dei Golden Globe, quindi diamo un'occhiata alle nomination.
In grassetto metterò i MIEI probabili vincitori. Purtroppo non posso avere una vista e opinioni complete, perchè ancora non ho visto molti di questi film; infatti continuo a basarmi sulle vare recensioni lette in giro su internet e sui giornali e su quello che si dice in giro per il mondo.
