JOHNNY DEPP: BEST PERFORMANCE BY AN ACTOR IN A MOTION PICTURE -
COMEDY OR MUSICAL NOMINEE
It's the clash of the first-timers versus the seasoned nominees for
the The 64th Annual Golden Globe Awards.
NOMINATION LIST
Just hazard a look at the Best Director of a Motion Picture
nominees. There's the old blood: Three-time Golden Globes Best
Director (Million Dollar Baby, Unforgiven and Bird) & 1988
Cecil B. DeMille Award recipient Clint Eastwood for Flags of Our
Fathers and Letters from Iwo Jima and Golden Globes Best Director
(Gangs Of New York) Martin Scorsese for The Departed. Then there's
the new blood: first-time nominees Stephen Frears for The Queen and
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu for Babel.
Clinching a double coup, like director Clint Eastwood, is Leonardo
DiCaprio, who is nominated twice for Best Actor (Drama) with The
Departed and Blood Diamond.
