Burlesque, Golden Globes, The Tourist

Golden Globalization
By Peter Keough

The Golden Globes, regarded as a bellwether of the Oscars (why? what is the Hollywood Foreign Press Association? Who are these people? No one ever answers), came up with their nominations today, and on the plus side five of the six Boston-accented performances I noted as potential Academy nominees got nods: Mark Wahlberg for Best Actor, Melissa Leo and Amy Adams for Best Supporting Actress and Christian Bale for Best Supporting Acto -- all from "The Fighter" (like its subject Micky Ward, a powerful late round contender, also getting in the Best Picture and Best Director races).
