As I was sleeping last night, the Golden Globe Awards was held in Los Angeles. According to what I have read, Ricky Gervais did great job as a host this year, too. You can read more about his jokes here.
Last week I predicted the winners in this blog and now it's the time to see how I did. I made my predictions on 13 different categories (leaving out Best Original Score - Motion Picture). To my delight, more than half of my predictions were right, 7 out of 13. Here's a list of the winners and my guesses: (·⁄· = right prediction)
Best Motion Picture - Drama: The Descendants ·⁄·
Best Motion Picture - Musical or Comedy: Midnight in Paris (The Artist)
Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture - Drama: Brad Pitt (Moneyball) (George Clooney for The Descendants)
Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture - Drama: Glenn Close (Albert Nobbs) (Meryl Streep for The Iron Lady)
Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture - Musical or Comedy: Joseph Gordon-Levitt (50/50) (Jean Dujardin for The Artist)

Best Director - Motion Picture: Alexander Payne (The Descendants) (Martin Scorcese for Hugo)

The entire list of winners here.
I think I did quite well in my predictions even though there were some stupid "mistakes". For example, I really liked the movie Midnight in Paris so I really wished that it had won in Best Motion Picture - Musical or Comedy -category. But now I know better so I can make more accurate predictions for the Oscars... ;)
