68th Annual Golden Globe Nods Announced

There were few surprises today when the Hollywood Foreign Press announced nominations for the 68th Annual Golden Globes.

Perhaps the biggest of the morning was Halle Berry's nomination for the little seen, little discussed "Frankie and Alice." The Emmy, Globe and Oscar champ nabbed the only unexpected nomination for lead actress in a motion picture-drama. She competes with Nicole Kidman (Rabbit Hole), Jennifer Lawrence (Winter's Bone), Natalie Portman (Black Swan) and Michelle Williams (Blue Valentine). If Berry can nab a Screen Actor's Guild nomination, she may find herself with another Oscar bid (the win this year is Natalie Portman's to lose).

Everything else -- as expected and, perhaps, as it should be. The films with the most nominations were :

  • THE KING’S SPEECH 7
  • THE FIGHTER 6
  • THE SOCIAL NETWORK 6
  • BLACK SWAN 4
  • INCEPTION 4
  • THE KIDS ARE ALL RIGHT 4
  • 127 HOURS 3

The TV categories saw a wider distribution of nominations:

  • GLEE 5
  • 30 ROCK 3
  • BOARDWALK EMPIRE 3
  • DEXTER 3
  • THE GOOD WIFE 3
  • MAD MEN 3
  • MODERN FAMILY 3
  • PILLARS OF THE EARTH 3
  • TEMPLE GRANDIN 3
