Winslet wins golden globe

Kate Winslet won a Golden Globe. Hopefully this gives her oomph in an Oscar campaign. She deserves it.
 
I see what you did there.

But yes, Kate is one of the finest actresses out there. I havn't seen The Reader yet, but it's on my list.
 
Yay, Kate! I want to see The Reader and Revolutionary Road. I hope she gets an Oscar this year...
 
Kate is LONG LONG overdue for an Oscar. She's always been an absolutely stunning actress.
 
I still don't see why she's never won. She always seems to get beaten by someone like Hilary Swank (can't stand her). :(

I'm happy Sally Hawkins won for Comedy/Musical Actress- I'd love to see her get an Oscar nod too (though I haven't seen Happy-Go-Lucky yet).
 
I feel really bad for Kate. It really does seem like the Academy doesn't want her to win an Oscar no matter what with all those times they've nominated her.
 
She's on her way to breaking Meryl Streep's nominations record, though that's a moving target, since Streep is still reeling 'em in.
 
She won supporting actress for playing a statutory rapist Nazi? Awesome, this will encourage filmmakers to pursue more convaluted World War 2 related films.

How about a concentration camp survivor falling in love with a Nazi war criminal...call it "Captive Hearts" or something equally banal. How about Angelina Jolie starring as TOKYO ROSE?
 
OT: I just love my local news station. The newscaster was announcing "Guess which underdog actress for not one but two awards." They showed the clip while saying it.

Congratulations to her though. Two awards is very impressive.
 
Yes, got to love her performance on the washing machine in 'Little Children' :) :)
 
She's awesome--so glad to see she won, twice! I haven't seen The Reader yet, but I saw Revolutionary Road last week after reading the book and loved both the movie and the performances in it, especially Kate's. She's a phenomenal actress! I hope she gets the Oscar for her performance in that movie.
