Thank you for this information

I thought Babel was going to win best picture.:confused:

[IMLX]

The correct movie won. "The Departed" is the kind of movie I wished I could forget, just so I could watch it again.

Hoping "Happy Feet" to win the best animated movie of the year.
I really liked it. Especially the little penguins music classes were awesome 'n cute.

Great that "Babel" on January 15, 2007 won the Golden Globe Award for Best Motion Picture - Drama. It was nominated for seven Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Director, and won one for Best Original Score.
