Golden Globes: As Jack and Rose both win, it’s a ‘Titanic’ night

Mel Gibson made an appearance at the 73rd annual Golden Globes and it was a little rough as host Ricky Gervais poked fun at him for his past drunken anti-Semitic comments.

“If I didn’t drink, I wouldn’t be courageous enough to say some of the things I’m going to say”, Gervais said.

“I want to thank my imaginary friend Rocky Balboa for being the best friend I ever had”, said Stallone.

He addressed what many deemed the “category fraud” of “The Martian’s” nomination for best comedy.

Damon told the audience that he knows how lucky he is to act for a living.

Supporting Actor: Sylvester Stallone, “Creed”.

Winslet was the first victor of the night and looked visibly shocked as she was named best supporting actress in a film for her portrayal of Joanna Hoffman in Steve Jobs. Quentin Tarantino is nominated for the screenplay of his Western “The Hateful Eight”, along with Emma Donoghue for “Room“, Aaron Sorkin for the biopic “Steve Jobs” and Charles Randolph and Adam McKay for the housing-bubble tale “The Big Short”.

Best foreign language film went to Hungary’s Laszlo Nemes’ “Son of Saul”, a harrowing view of life inside Auschwitz.

Mad Men actor John Hamm has won the Best Actor award in a Television Series.

Amazon’s “Mozart in the Jungle“, about classical musicians in NY, was named best TV comedy.

In another mild surprise, Rachel Bloom won best actress in a TV comedy for “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend”, which premiered on the CW in October.

The Golden Globe for best actor in a musical or comedy TV series has been scooped by Gael Garcia Beral for his performance in Mozart in the Jungle.

Elba and Rylance will both vie for the best supporting actor in a motion picture category and the best actor in a limited series or TV movie.

Lady Gaga kissed American Horror Story: Hotel creator Ryan Murphy and her fiancee Taylor Kinney as she was named best lead actress in a limited series or TV movie for her role in the horror anthology. “When people go see movies, it’s just?? it’s kind of rare”. Penn was not in attendance Sunday, but surely had Gervais making last-minute changes to his opening monologue.

He is nominated for his performance as transgender artist Lili Elbe in The Danish Girl and he will go head-to-head with 10-time nominee Leonardo DiCaprio, who received a nod for his gruelling turn in revenge saga The Revenant.

“Remember, if you do win tonight, nobody cares about that award as much as you do”, he quipped. “It’s a bit of metal they give you so journalists can have a selfie with you”. One of his three Globes, Gervais said, he stuffs up his rear. Voting for the Academy Award nominations, to be announced Thursday, ended on Friday.

Its new series “Mr. Robot” won the Globe for best television drama, and veteran Christian Slater was a popular choice at the Beverly Hills Hotel for his best supporting actor award.

Also not appearing on the PGA list and conspicuously absent from this year’s Globes nominees is J.J. Abrams’ galactic juggernaut “Star Wars: The Force Awakens”, which on Wednesday, became the highest-grossing movie of all time in North America.

He finished by telling winners that their awards were “worthless”.

The Martian accepted the Golden Globe for best motion picture comedy.
