HOLLYWOOD FOREIGN PRESS ASSOCIATION 65th GOLDEN GLOBE AWARDS WINNERS

Sunday, January 13, 2008, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association announced the 2008 Golden Globe Awards Winners for the year ended December 31, 2007.  Because of the ongoing strike by the Writers Guild of America against the Producers Guild and the major Hollywood studios, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association announced the winners via a press conference instead of the usual televised gala program.

The acclaimed British romantic period drama, Atonement, won for “Best Motion Picture-Drama,” but failed to win any of the acting honors.  Meanwhile, Sweeney Todd won for “Best Motion Picture-Comedy,” while Sweeney Todd star, Johnny Depp,” won for “Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture-Comedy or Musical.
