The Golden Globes – the slightly drunk cousin of the Oscars that doesn't really mind if Jack Nicholson shows up at 3am and widdles on its carpet – has just announced its nominations for next year's awards.
And – out of nowhere considering the direction that awards season seems to be going in – Atonement has scored more Golden Globe nominations than anyone else. In all, Atonement has scored seven Golden Globe nominations – among them Best Actress for Keira Knightley, Best Actor for James McAvoy and Best Director for Joe Wright. Although the competition will be harder than ever at a big awards show like the Golden Globes, Atonement is expected to win at least one trophy – either the Best Annoyingly Twittish Film About People Who Speak With Accents Like Dentists Drills or the By Christ Love Put Them Away For Once award for excessive and repeated nudity, both of which we've just made up.
