It was a night of the "underappreciated" as Hollywood longtimers Jeff Bridges, Sandra Bullock and Robert Downey Jr. win their first Globes in the star-studded affair hosted by Ricky Gervais. Even in the television categories, the consistently brilliant but usually underrated stars (Julianna Marguilles, Chloe Sevigny, Toni Collette) triumphed in the acting categories.
*BEST SPEECH OF THE NIGHT- Mo'Nique
"I am in the midst of my dream, and when I look into the eyes of the man that I stood next to at fourteen years old, and I said to him, 'One day we're gonna be stars,' and he said 'You first,' I love you more than you will ever know, baby."
*WORST SPEECH OF THE NIGHT- Drew Barrymore. She just rambled and rambled and rambled.
*FUNNIEST QUIP: Meryl Streep
"I just want to say, in my long career, I've played so many extraordinary women that basically I'm getting mistaken for one."
*MOST METAPHORIC SPEECH: Christoph Waltz.
He talked about stars and constellations and planetary orbits like a mad scientist and ended his speech with: "I wouldn't have dared dream my little world, my globe, would be part of that constellation, and now you've made it golden."
*MOST IRONIC SPEECH: Sandra Bullock
"(If I may steal from Michael Oher), I may not be the most talented, but I've been given opportunity,"

Martin Scorsese To Receive the Cecil B. DeMille Award at the Golden Globes
Oscar-winning director Martin Scorsese will receive the Cecil B. DeMille lifetime achievement award at the Golden Globes this January 2010, the Hollywood Foreign Press announced today.
Scorsese is a two time- Golden Globe Best Director winner for "The Departed" and "Gangs of New York", two of the most un-Scorsese films that I've seen from Scorsese. Just last year, Scorsese presented the same award to buddy Steven Spielberg.
The Globes will be broadcast live on NBC on January 17, Sunday and will be hosted by British comedian "Ricky Gervais".
Scorsese's next film, "Shutter Island" will arrive at theatres on February next year.
