'Globes' show stimulating but a bit odd

Thoughts on the Golden Globes 2010:
This year's show was a lot of fun, but I confess for the life of me I cannot figure why Daniel Day-Lewis didn't snare a win for his work in 'Nine.' Also there is no doubt that Penelope Cruz did a fine job in 'Nine' with a sexy, delightful performance and yet she did not win. Daniel Day-Lewis and Penelope Cruz are superb, sensual artists. Modal variables aplenty in this year's Globe ghoulash. I guess the foreign press group is not so savvy about the unique variables going on in contemporary American cultural life. However, I was amused that Sandra Bulloch got a Globe. Good work by the clever woman from Texas. It was a rather wily show and a high mark was the finesse shown by Ricky Gervais, kind of running the show in his super-casual way.
