The Globes are distributed by a relatively small group, about 90 journalists who cover entertainment for foreign- based media outlets. Tim Robbins and Renee Zellweger collected supporting movie performer honors. Robbins’ supporting role as a grown child-abuse survivor sus pected of murder in “Mystic River” earned him the first trophy of the evening. “Wow! We just sat down. The good thing about this coming early is that 1 get to drink now,” Robbins joked. Later in his acceptance speech he shouted to director Clint Eastwood: “Clint, you are the man! 1 have never felt so trusted and in such good hands as when we were on the set for that movie.” Eastwood accepted the drama actor award on behalf of Penn, who did not attend, and described his “Mystic River” star as an actor who has been too often taken for granted. Zellweger received the sup porting movie actress award for playing a tough-as-bark back- woods woman in “Cold Mountain.” She previously won two lead comedy actress Golden Globes for “Nurse Betty” in 2001 and last year for “Chicago.” Besides winning best TV movie or miniseries, “Angels in America” won four performing awards. Co-star Meryl Streep and A1 Pacino were picked best TV movie lead perfonners and sup porting TV honors went to Jeffrey Wright and Mtiry-Loui.se Parker. Streep, who was previously onstage to present the award to Robbins, accepted her trophy with a blushing remark: “I just realized you can see complete ly though my dress.” Among the nominees Wright beat out for supporting TV actor: his “Angels in America” co-stars Ben Shenkman and Patrick Wilson. “1 share this with you." he told them from the stage. "But I’ll keep it at my house." Anthony LaPaglia won best drama series actor for the CBS crime show “Without a Trace," while Frances Conroy claimed the drama actress award tor the HBO funeral-home show “Six Feet Under.” Sarah Jessica Parker won best comedy series actress for “Sex and the City,” which is in its last season on HBO. and Fox’s real-time thriller “24" won best drama series. BBC America’s "The Office,” which stars co-creator Ricky Gervais as an annoying boss at a British paper mer chant, defeated “Arrested Development,” "Monk." “Sex and the City” and “Will & Grace” for best comedy show. The critically lauded “The Office” is being developed into an American version. “I’m not from these parts.” said Gervais, who later won best TV comedy actor. “I'm from a little place called J Kratu; Kn dents' “Hi have 1 “My s Texas Tri! disside “U: there i: betwee As straigh can tx Kr “T ”Mosi gets i mates other “1 thesa said, ingar five n “I me al Depa diffei roon com] England ...
