A List Of Things Thrown Five Minutes Ago

THE 75 MOST POWERFUL PEOpLE IN HOLLYWOOD: Golden Globe nominations are out, and a few quick thoughts before I run to work:

• All four Doubt performers are nominated, as is the screenplay, but no best picture or director nomination?
• Big love for Vicky Christina Barcelona (unsurprising, as the HFPA tends to love Woody Allen and foreign performers)--acting nods for Bardem, Rebecca Hall, and Penelope Cruz, as well as a best pic nominee.
• Meryl Streep is nominated in both best actress categories (Doubt and Mamma Mia!), and Kate Winslet is nominated as a lead actress for Revolutionary Road and a supporting actress for The Reader.
• Even though the Globes don't divide their supporting acting categories into comedy/drama, two comic actors got in on supporting actor--both for Tropic Thunder--Robert Downey, Jr. and Tom Cruise. Both are, naturally, going to lose to Heath Ledger.
• Clint Eastwood--two nominations--both for music.
  
• Kevin Connolly for lead actor in a comedy? Seriously? (And NPH is the sole nod for anything on CBS Monday.)
• Aside from Sean Penn's performance, Milk is shut out.
  

Other oddball nominees include Miley Cyrus (best original song), James Franco (best actor for Pineapple Express), Melissa George (supporting actress TV for In Treatment), and multiple nominations for In Bruges.
