My Golden Globe Picks

I am a huge fan of film awards shows and as the list of Golden Globe nominations has recently been released, I thought I'd share who I would like to win. I have not seen all of the nominations, which is why I do not have the right to say who I think should win, but from what I have seen, these are my choices. I've also eliminated a few seconds that I did not have opinions on or hadn't seen enough of the choices. And now, my choices! Let me know your top picks in the comments :)

  • The Help

I really liked The Artist and I want to see Tintin desperately. I haven't seen Hugo yet, but I've heard it was really good.
