"The nominations for the 65th Annual Golden Globe Awards, the precursor to the Oscars, have been announced for 2008. This year's selection has some promising choices, including plentiful mentions of No Country for Old Men, Michael Clayton, Juno, Charlie Wilson's War, and even Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story. While the Golden Globes aren't exactly what we'll later see at the Oscars, they're a great set of awards that honor those who are sometimes forgotten by the Academy. The Globes will air live on NBC at 8PM (EST) on Sunday, January 13, 2008 from The Beverly Hilton in LA. Without further ado, you can catch the full list of nominees below." Link
Atonement with Keira Knightley and James McAovy leads the nominations with seven.
Atonement Trailer
One of my favorite films "Gone, Baby, Gone" only recieved one nomination - Amy Ryan for Best Supporting Actress. Gone, Baby, Gone deserves more recognition. It had terrific direction (Ben Affleck), acting (Casey Affleck, Ed Harris) and the story raised moral questions each filmgoer could dig into like a bowl of Boston Clam Chowder.

Just saw Atonement and it does deserve nominations but I agree on Gone Baby Gone. This could pass for a Clint Eastwood film. It really is remarkable.
