My Golden Globe Predictions

The HFPA love an epic romance, so I am thinking ‘Button’ takes this. I figure they are chomping at the bit to give Penelope an award, so Winslet should take Lead Actress Drama - I mean she has yet to win one.

I would be surprised if Hawkins doesn’t win Comedy Actress, but if Streep looses Drama they could want to reward her here.

Drama Actor should go to Penn easily, and Comedy Actor should either go to Franco or Farrell. I say Franco by a hair.
