The 65th Annual Golden Globe Awards will be on January 13, and I love this year selection. This is a list of my favorite nominations:

‘Atonement’

Best picture, best actress for Keira Knightley, best actor for James McAvoy and best director nominations and it is serious contender for Oscar. Film is an adaptation of Ian McEwan’s WWII romance book.

‘Sweeney Todd’

best comedy/musical picture, best actor for star Johnny Depp, best director and best actress for Helena Bonham Carter

‘No Country for Old Men’

I love this film. Javier Bardem gets a supporting, and The Coen Brothers score nominations for screenplay and best picture.

‘Juno’

Juno may become this year’s ‘Little Miss Sunshine’, with nominations for best comedy/musical picture, best actress for Ellen Page and best screenplay by stripper-turned-writer Diablo Cody.

‘A Mighty Heart’

Angelina Jolie earns a best actress nomination and she deserve it. She will be nominated for Oscars and I hope that she wins.

‘There Will Be Blood’

I did not see this film, but everyone is talking about it. Paul Thomas Anderson’s grabs nominations for best drama picture, best actor for Daniel Day-Lewis and best director. It will open later next month.

‘Charlie Wilson’s War’

Tom Hanks, Juila Roberts and Philip Seymour Hoffman all grab acting nods for their work. Aaron Sorkin’s screenplay is also nominated, as is the film for best comedy.

‘Into the Wild’

Eddie Vedder’s score is nominated, but where’s the best picture and best director love for Sean Penn?

‘American Gangster’

Denzel Washington makes a run at best actor. Russell Crowe is shut out of the category!, though. Ridley Scott nails down a director nomination. Denzel and Ridley Scott will be nominated for the Oscars.

‘The Assassination of Jesse James’

No best actor nod for star Brad Pitt, but Casey Affleck did pick up a nomination for best supporting actor. I really hope that it will be nominated (not wiining) for best film for the Oscars.

‘Eastern Promises’

This David Cronenberg thriller scores a best picture nod as well as a best actor nod for Viggo Mortensen. If you did not see this film stop reading and go get it.
