The Globes

Every year I say I won't watch the Golden Globe awards show and somehow I change my mind. I don't really like what they do, a great example is giving an award to the movie American Hustle, for comedy or musical. It was neither. 
And I really was upset at making Jacqueline Bisset walk from what seemed like the parking lot somewhere. As my friend said, Bisset was in the old folks seats way back somewhere in the auditorium
I remember her first big movie, Two For The Road, in which she had a very small part. It's a great movie about marriage, try to find it. Then she made a movie called The Sweet Ride, about a bunch of losers living in Malibu.
Then she appeared in one of my favorite movies.
Bullit. With Steve McQueen (the original Steve McQueen), the movie most known for it's classic chase scene with a Dodge Charger and a 1968 Mustang. She wasn't in the chase, but the movie established her in Hollywood. Another must-see movie.
Now for Tina and Amy.
Tina Fey is undoubtedly one of the best comedy writers and performers of her generation and she is good at it. Amy Poehler, on the other hand, is just pretty average when you put her up against the great Saturday Night Live comedians.
The Globes are the result of a bunch of foreign critics who make their living by writing stories about movie stars and are, for the most part, a bunch of people who like to be different than Americans. 
Other dislikes; Spike Jonz getting an award, Leonardo getting an award and as much as I like Jennifer Lawrence, she really didn't do enough in American Hustle to win an award. 
There were a lot of good bits though, and it was okay but the question now is what will the oscars be... Ellen Degeneres? Hmnnn... It ain't Tina for sure.
This could be the year when the Globes outshine the Oscars.
