Golden Globes: Hugh Jackman won Best Actor for Musical/Comedy for “Les Miz.” And the movie won Best Comedy or Musical. Ben Affleck won Best Director for “Argo,” which marks an amazing turnaround since the Oscar winning co writer of “Good Will Hunting” at one point made the worst movie ever — “Gigli.”
But the big moment tonight will be remembered as Jodie Foster’s Lifetime Achievement Award speech–she came out, in a way, and admitted that she was gay, kind of, in an emotional, rambling speech that was brave, in a way, and very cool. Good for her. Foster seemed nervous that her career would be over, but that won’t happen. She’s a two time Oscar winner, and beloved in Hollywood. Anyway, everyone there knew it for years. It doesn’t matter.
“Girls” won Best TV Comedy, as expected.
