Golden Globes: Amy Adams and Jennifer Lawrence are American Hustle winners
Scroll down to check out the full list of Golden Globes 2014 winners. This year’s Golden Globes ceremony took place earlier this evening, Jan. 12, with Amy Poehler and Tina Fey back as hosts. (See further below the full list of Golden Globe winners and nominees.)
The 2014 Golden Globe nominations were announced by Aziz Ansari, Zoe Saldana, and Olivia Wilde exactly one month ago. Among the surprises was the inclusion in the Best Picture – Drama category of Ron Howard’s domestic box office disappointment Rush, starring Chris Hemsworth and Best Supporting Golden Globe nominee Daniel Brühl, and the exclusion of The Wolf of Wall Street’s Martin Scorsese from the Best Director roster.
Also, Julie Delpy and Greta Gerwig were both in the running in the Best Actress in a Motion Picture Musical or Comedy category for, respectively, Richard Linklater’s Before Midnight and Noah Baumbach’s Frances Ha. Neither film was a box office hit and neither actress could be considered a “film star”; taking into account the Golden Globe’s past history, more likely candidates would have been Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy for the summer hit The Heat.
Needless to say, Rush, Delpy, and Gerwig went home empty-handed. And so did Scorsese, who was present at the ceremony.

Jennifer Lawrence Wins Golden Globe, Remembers David O. Russell discovery
Jennifer Lawrence, as expected, has taken home the 2014 Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actress for her performance in David O. Russell’s American Hustle, a crime comedy-drama set in the ’70s, which also stars Amy Adams, Bradley Cooper, Christian Bale, and Jeremy Renner. In her acceptance speech, Lawrence reminisced:
Years ago, I watched a movie called I Heart Huckabees [2004] and I was so in awe and floored by this completely unchartered humor. So I googled who made it and I saw that it was the same director as Three Kings and Flirting with Disaster and Spanking the Monkey, and I just thought that this is the most brilliant man in every single way. And so by some weird twist of fate, this is the same man that made my career.

Although it has its fans – obviously, Jennifer Lawrence among them – I Heart Huckabees was a box office and critical disappointment that attained a certain degree of notoriety after videos showing a monumental on-set blow-up between director Russell and actress Lily Tomlin were leaked online.
Last year, Jennifer Lawrence won the Best Actress Academy Award and the Best Actress in a Motion Picture Musical or Comedy Golden Globe for David O. Russell’s comedy-drama Silver Linings Playbook.
Jennifer Lawrence, of course, is also the star of the Hunger Games movies: The Hunger Games, The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, and the upcoming The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1 and The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2.
Golden Globes 2014: Best Supporting Actress nominees
Jennifer Lawrence’s Golden Globe competitors in the Best Supporting Actress category were Sally Hawkins for Woody Allen’s Blue Jasmine, Lupita Nyong’o for Steve McQueen’s 12 Years a Slave, June Squibb for Alexander Payne’s Nebraska, and Julia Roberts – the Jennifer Lawrence of the early ’90s – for John Wells’ August: Osage County.

Woody Allen gets Cecil B. DeMille Award
In addition to the Golden Globes 2014 nominees listed below, Blue Jasmine director Woody Allen was the recipient of the 2014 Cecil B. DeMille Award. Diane Keaton, Allen’s frequent collaborator in the ’70s (e.g., Sleeper, Love and Death, Annie Hall, Interiors, and Manhattan, plus 1993 entry Manhattan Murder Mystery) was Allen’s proxy.
Woody Allen’s film career has lasted nearly half a century. Besides the aforementioned titles featuring Diane Keaton, Allen’s credits as a director and/or screenwriter and/or actor include What’s New Pussycat (1965), starring the recently deceased Peter O’Toole; Bananas (1971), with Allen’s by then ex-wife Louise Lasser; Stardust Memories (1980), also featuring Charlotte Rampling, Jessica Harper, and Marie-Christine Barrault; the Mia Farrow Movies (e.g., Zelig, Broadway Danny Rose, The Purple Rose of Cairo, Another Woman, Crimes and Misdemeanors, Alice, Husbands and Wives); Bullets Over Broadway (1994), with John Cusack and Dianne Wiest; the Scarlett Johansson Movies (Scoop, Match Point, Vicky Cristina Barcelona); and, more recently, You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger (2010), with Naomi Watts; Midnight in Paris (2011), with Owen Wilson; and To Rome with Love (2012), with Penélope Cruz.

Golden Globes 2014 predictions: ‘American Hustle,’ Amy Adams to win?
The winners of the 2014 Golden Globes will be announced on Sunday, January 12, 2014 – the same day that two-time Oscar winner Luise Rainer (The Great Ziegfeld, The Good Earth) turns 104 years old. (I’d have said “cosmic,” except that Luise Rainer has never won or been nominated for a Golden Globe.)
Now, who’s going to take home the dozen or so Golden Globes in the Motion Picture categories? Curiously, there’s no absolute, clear-cut favorite in any of them, except perhaps for David O. Russell’s American Hustle in the Best Musical or Comedy category, even though (or perhaps because) Russell’s ’70s throwback film is not exactly a comedy – and it’s certainly not a musical.
But who cares about the Golden Globes, anyway? They’re not important. Well, whether or not you find them important, there are lots of people who’d like to have one Golden Globe at home (including, quite possibly, you). Also, the Golden Globes “party” is one of the most watched awards ceremonies of the year. And finally, when it comes to film trophies, those little golden globes are second only to the Oscar statuettes in international recognition.
So, below are our Golden Globes 2014 predictions in the motion picture categories, plus a trio of television selections. As always, if our winners turn out to be losers come tomorrow evening, don’t blame us – blame the Hollywood Foreign Press Association voters.
Oh, here’s one guaranteed Golden Globes 2014 winner: Woody Allen, who’ll be receiving – via proxy Diane Keaton – the Cecil B. DeMille Award.

2013 Golden Globes winners
For the record: Among the 2013 Golden Globe’s winners in the motion picture categories were Ben Affleck’s Argo, Tom Hooper’s Les Misérables, Michael Haneke’s Amour, Daniel Day-Lewis for Steven Spielberg’s Lincoln, Hugh Jackman for Les Misérables, Jessica Chastain for Kathryn Bigelow’s Zero Dark Thirty, Jennifer Lawrence for David O. Russell’s Silver Linings Playbook, Christoph Waltz for Quentin Tarantino’s Django Unchained, Anne Hathaway for Les Misérables, director Ben Affleck, and screenwriter Quentin Tarantino.
Director Affleck wasn’t even nominated for an Academy Award, but Argo, Amour, Day-Lewis, Lawrence, Waltz, Hathaway, and screenwriter Tarantino all went on to win Oscars.
Golden Globe nominations: Predictions
They may be ridiculed, derided, and dismissed, but the Hollywood Foreign Press Association’s Golden Globes ceremony remains the second most important awards-season event – in terms of international public awareness – trailing only the Academy Awards. The nominations for the 2014 Golden Globes (“2013 Golden Globes,” if you want to be technical about it) will be announced by Zoe Saldana, Olivia Wilde, and Aziz Ansari (very, very early) on Thursday morning, December 12, 2013.
Who will be the nominees? Which movies and performances will Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences members want to check out after they hear the names and/or titles of this year’s nominees?
Well, below are our 2014 Golden Globes predictions. Like the Academy Awards, Hollywood guilds, and most critic’s groups, quality is an important element in the HFPA member’s selections; but then again, even more important is what’s perceived as Oscar-“worthy” (in terms of buzz and thematic scope, not quality) – and, particularly in the case of the Golden Globes, who gets to come to the party.
As in previous years, if our predictions in the film, acting, directing, and screenplay categories are not on target, blame the members of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association – not us. Note: Not infrequently, more than five nominees are shortlisted for the Golden Globes; we’re sticking to five nominees per category.
