It’s difficult to predict which films will make the top list here since the Globes have a number of categories where they can reward a wealth of films, and the top five don’t always represent the movies that will be most successful throughout awards season (like “Bobby” and “Little Children”). The safest bet of all is the universally likeable Slumdog Millionaire. Milk should have no trouble getting in, but good vibes will be needed to ensure spots for The Curious Case of Benjamin Button and Revolutionary Road. In the preliminary battle between Doubt and Frost Nixon (for some reason, I don’t think both can get in), I think the former will prevail. Expect possible competition from The Reader and some votes for Defiance and Rachel Getting Married. Then there’s the curious case of The Dark Knight, a wildly popular film that probably won’t be able to get this top spot, in my opinion, but many others disagree, so be on the lookout for this surprise.
Predicted five:
THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON
DOUBT
MILK
REVOLUTIONARY ROAD
SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE
