2007 Golden Globe Awards - without the glitz n glamour


Due to the strike of the writers, the usual Golden Globe Awards show was scrapped and being changed to sth akin to a news report in announcing the winners. Apa maksudnya???? MEANS NO red carpet coverage, means that no cleavages, the boos-and-yays of the stars dressing sense, the funny and sometimes boring acceptance speeches as well as the successful or unsuccessful banters between the presenters.


Fortunately I won't be free to watch it even if the show goes on haha....


But this year, my list of movies-to-watch are......


1. Atonement

2. There Will Be Blood

3. No Country For Old Men

4. American Gangster

5. Eastern Promises

6. Michael Clayton

7. The Great Debaters

8. Juno

9. Sweeny Todd

10. Charlie Wilson's War

(OK, I'm sucker for those nominated pictures but this year's contenders are really strong and equally weighty)

11. Away From Her (well....should be worth it even if it's just for Julie Christie)

12. La Vie en Rose (besides the fact Marion Cotillard won many awards for this role, I love Edith Piaf, the main character in this movie bt THE famous French songstress)

13. I'm Not There (lots of Bob Dylan and Cate Blanchett as the male Bob Dylan)

14. The Kite Runner (read the book, how can I miss the movie???)

15. Lust, Caution (errr.......)

16. The Diving Bell and the Butterfly (French entry for foreign movie)

17. 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days


And for the TV Series.....

1. Californication

2. Weeds

3. Longford

4. Dexter

5. Damages
