Golden Globes

The Golden Globes 2013 , the expected glamour , some unexpected winners and most of all an array of heart felt , witty and articulate acceptance speeches. Certainly the surprise success of Ben Affleck's Argo has shaken the nominations of The Academy Awards in late February . Affleck himself was excluded from the Best Director Category and many had counted on Lincoln leaving with the big awards. Amy Poehler and Tina Fey did an excellent job bringing mostly guilt free humour to the show , and providing an adequate replacement to Ricky Gervais. The awards season has truly begun with a bang.

1. The entirety of Tina Fey's and Amy Poehler's opening duologue.
2.Daniel Day Lewis doing the ET finger.
