金球獎揭曉 《社交網站》獨攬四獎
"The Social Network" grabbed four awards including best picture at the Golden Globes on Sunday, trouncing top-tipped British drama "The King's Speech" which garnered only one.
In what is traditionally seen as a pointer to the Oscars next month, the movie about Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg won best director for David Fincher as well as best screenplay and best score.
While the blockbuster movie won in four of the six categories it was nominated for, "The King's Speech" -- which had been nominated for seven awards -- walked away with only one, with best actor in a drama for Colin Firth.
The award for best actress in a drama went to Natalie Portman for her performance in the ballet-themed dance drama "Black Swan," on the set of which she met her husband-to-be Benjamin Millepied, with whom she is expecting a baby.
Portman had been up against Halle Berry ("Frankie and Alice"), Nicole Kidman ("Rabbit Hole"), Jennifer Lawrence ("Winter's Bone") and Michelle Williams ("Blue Valentine") for the best actress award.
But the night belonged to the Facebook movie, whose producer Scott Rudin hailed the film's "brilliant, brilliant script" and those who worked on it, but also thanked the Facebook founder.
"I want to thank everybody at Facebook -- Mark Zuckerberg for his willingness to allow us to use his life and work as a metaphor through which to tell a story about communication and the way we relate to each other," he said.
Other winners at the three-hour show included "The Kids are All Right," about a lesbian couple bringing up two children who go in search of their biological father, which won two awards including best actress in a comedy or musical for Annette Bening.
Boxing movie "The Fighter", which had also been nominated in six categories, won a respectable two, for British actor Christian Bale and US actress Melissa Leo as best supporting actor and actress in the film.
Best animated feature film -- an increasingly high-profile category in recent years, as cutting technology produces ever more eye-popping blockbusters, went to "Toy Story 3".
本年度金球獎上週日揭曉，《社交網站》獨攬劇情類最佳影片等四項大獎，而此前呼聲很高的英國影片《國王的演講》僅捧走一個獎項。
《社交網站》是一部講述Facebook創始人馬克•扎克伯格的傳記電影。導演大衛•芬奇憑藉此片獲得最佳導演獎。此外，該影片還斬獲最佳劇本、最佳原創配樂獎。金球獎一直被看作下月奧斯卡獎的“風向標”。
熱映影片《社交網站》之前曾獲得6項提名，此次捲走4項大獎。而之前獲得7項提名的影片《國王的演講》僅有科林•費斯摘得最佳劇情片男主角一個獎項。
娜塔麗•波特曼因出演芭蕾舞主題舞蹈劇《黑天鵝》斬獲最佳劇情片女主角。她在片場結識了未婚夫本傑明•米勒皮，如今正好“孕”當頭。
獲得最佳劇情片女主角提名的還有哈利•貝瑞（《弗蘭基與愛麗絲》）、妮可•基德曼（《兔子洞》）、詹妮弗•勞倫斯（《冬天的骨頭》）、米歇爾•威廉姆斯（《藍色情人節》）。
但今年的金球獎之夜屬於講述Facebook創始人的傳記影片《社交網站》。該影片製片人斯科特•魯丁在領獎時稱讚這部影片“劇本很棒”，還誇獎了所有的演職人員，同時還對Facebook創始人表示感謝。
他說：“我想感謝Facebook的所有用戶。感謝馬克•扎克伯格同意我們以他的生活和工作爲題材，讓我們來講述了一個有關人與人之間的交流，以及人們之間的關係的故事。”
其他獲獎者包括：安妮特•貝寧憑藉《孩子們都很好》斬獲喜劇片或歌舞片類最佳女主角獎。這部影片講述了一對女同性戀伴侶撫養兩個尋找生父的孩子的故事。該片還捧走另一獎項。本屆金球獎頒獎典禮舉行了3個小時。
獲得6項提名的拳擊題材電影《鬥士》捧走兩項頗具份量的大獎。英國影星克里斯蒂安•貝爾和美國女星梅麗莎•里奧分獲最佳男配角和女配角。
今年的最佳動畫長片獎花落《玩具總動員3》。隨着電影剪輯技術的發展，電影人創造出更多令人驚歎的動畫大片，因此該獎項越來越受關注。
