Association event is regarded by
many in Hollywood as one of
the year's biggest parties, but it’s
also a way to generate front-run
ner buzz for the Oscars.
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
