Total of 19 Telluride Golden Globe Nominations.
The Artist = 6
The Descendants = 5
Albert Nobbs = 3
One each for Shame, A Separation, The Kid with a Bike, We Need to Talk to Kevin and A Dangerous Method.
At this point, the Globes aren't necessarily a predictor, but can serve as a reminder or a goad to Academy members who are making up their minds about who/what to put on their ballots.
Comment...The Artist is probably the front runner as of this morning with (by my estimation) Hugo and The Descendants the most likely films to challenge it for Best Picture.
The Artist led all films with 6 nominations followed by The Descendants and The Help with 5 a piece.
Good news this morning for both Glenn Close and Shailene Woodley, keeping them both in play.
Hugo, Midnight in Paris and Moneyball definitely did well enough to continue to be a part of the conversation.
Surprises (at least to me):
*Viggo Mortensen's nomination for A Dangerous Method.
*The success of The Ides of March (maybe it gets back into the conversation because of this morning).
*Kristen Wiig gets in for Bridesmaids but Melissa McCarthy did not.
*No Vanessa Redgrave for Coriolanus...Is her campaign losing steam?
*No In Darkness for Foreign Film
*No song nominated from The Muppets
*No Tree of Life anywhere to be seen
In other thoughts...
I was personally happy to see Michael Fassbender and Janet McTeer get acting nominations. Also was pleased to see A Separation in the foreign film category (I'd still love for it to sneak into the Original Screenplay category come Oscar time). Sad that there was no other love for Shame (especially for Carey Mulligan).
