Some Golden Globe noms were announced before a national announcement tied to the morning shows. Meantime, Eddie Redmayne of “Les Miserables” is working the fan line at the “Today” show. Christoph Waltz of “Django Unchained” is sitting on the “Today” couch, which must mean he was nominated. (Surprise! How could they know all this? Clairvoyance?) Each deserves a nomination for their work. (Can you imagine if they were live on TV and hadn’t been nominated?) Well, the Globes are on NBC so obviously they knew last night who the nominees would be.
Big snubs: Barbra Streisand, “This is 40,” “The Hobbit,” “Skyfall,” “The Dark Knight” and Paul Thomas Anderson and “The Master.” The HFPA loves stars, I’m surprised they didn’t find room for Streisand. And Leslie Mann, who is so good in “This is 40.” Criminal!
Good news: Nicole Kidman was nominated for “The Paperboy.” She won’t win against Anne Hathaway or Sally Field, but it’s nice to be in the fame. David O. Russell was snubbed as Best Director, for “Silver Linings.” Good thing the Globes don’t predict the Oscars. Russell will be a DGA and Academy nominee.
And the weird: I don’t know how “Les Miserables” is supposed to compete with comedies, or vice versa. There’s nothing funny about “Les Miz.” That category was introduced when there were “musical comedies” like “Hello Dolly!”
