Golden Globes Forecast
I certainly won't be around these parts tomorrow, so I'll go ahead with a quick look at the HFPA's Golden Globe Awards.
"The Departed" asserted itself pretty clearly for those who had doubts over the weekend as the Broadcast Film Critics Association handed the film their Best Picture and Best Director prizes. All of tomorrow's races seem to be up in the air more than any other year. Literally, three films in each Best Picture race have clear shots at taking the win.
(Predictions after the jump.)

"The Departed"
Best Picture - Comedy/Musical
"Little Miss Sunshine"
Best Actor - Drama
Forest Whitaker, "The Last King of Scotland"

I agree in every single category, maybe Dreamgirls will take song... I really doubt Babel will win like most people are predicting...

I firmly believe that Babel WILL win as most are predicting and I'll go out on a limb and say BABEL will win for:
picture
screenplay
score
adriana barraza
brad pitt
Bold maybe - but They are going to give director to scorsese and picture to babel. hfpa likes to spread the wealth.

Kris,
Why have you predicted The Departed for the Drama win on In Contention and Babel for the win on Gurus of Gold?
Which is it?

Departed. Gurus stuff went out pre-BFCA.
