MOB: Golden Globe Preview



Forgive me, I can't write much here because I have to get cranking on this paper on the merits of what can be called "cinematic." I think it's gonna be an all-nighter, so I should use very minute I can get. I'll probably be up late enough to catch the Golden Globe nomination announcement. NYFCC announced today and, uh, my preview column was a lot less helpful in predicting. The Kids Are All Right kind of came out of nowhere with three wins. I can't imagine legitimate critics who actually got more out of Annette Bening's performance than Lesley Manville's? Anyways, my Golden Globe predictions after the cut.
