12A Daily News ��� Friday, December 14, 2012 'Lincoln' tops Golden Globe nominations By Susan King and Rene Lynch Los Angeles Times (MCT) LOS ANGELES ��� The Civil War epic "Lincoln" scored a record seven Golden Globe nominations for director Steven Spielberg, including best director, best picture, and best actor honors for Daniel Day-Lewis. It was the most Golden Globe nominations one of his films has ever received, and also included best supporting actor and actress nods for Tommy Lee Jones and Sally Field, as well as best screenplay and score. By contrast, his 1993 classic "Schindler's List" earned six Golden Globe nominations. "Django Unchained" and "Argo" followed with five nominations from the Hollywood Foreign Press Assn. on Thursday morning. Quentin Tarantino's slavery Western "Django Unchained," which opens Christmas Day, earned nods for best director, best picture and two supporting actor nominations for Leonardo DiCaprio and Christoph Waltz. Among the nominations for Ben Affleck's political thriller "Argo" were nominations for best director, best picture, and best supporting actor for Alan Arkin. The nominations wrap one of the most closely watched weeks of the awards season, which kicked off Monday with the announcement of nominations for the Critics' Choice Movie Awards, followed by the SAG Award nominations. The films and performers honored this week gain front-runner status leading up to the Academy Award nominations, which are to be announced Jan. 10. Swimming upstream with three nominations Thursday morning was one of the biggest surprises of the award season: "Salmon Fishing in the Yemen." The quirky romantic comedy was nominated for best comedy or musical picture, and also earned best actor and actress nominations for stars Emily Blunt and Ewan McGregor. On the TV side of the nominations, HBO's drama "Game Change" ���chronicling Sarah Palin's 2008 vice presidential run ��� earned the most nominations with five, including a best actress nod for Julianne Moore. "Homeland" followed with four nominations and "Downton Abbey," "Modern Family" and the TV movie "The Girl" picked up three apiece. There's also a suggestion that the love affair with "Mad Men" may be coming to an end.

Earlier this year, the show failed to take home a single Emmys. It was another good morning for veteran actress Maggie Smith. The 77-year-old ��� who earned the most Screen Actors Guild Award nominations Wednesday ���picked up two Golden Globe nods for best actress in a comedy or musical for "Quartet" and for best performance in a supporting role for the TV series "Downton Abbey." Besides "Lincoln," "Django Unchained" and "Argo," the best motion picture drama nominees are "Life of Pi" and "Zero Dark Thirty." Joining Day-Lewis in the best actor in a dramatic movie category are Richard Gere for "Arbitrage," John Hawkes for "The Sessions," Joaquin Phoenix for "The Master" and Denzel Washington for "Flight." Vying for best actress in a dramatic motion picture are Jessica Chastain for "Zero Dark Thirty," Marion Cotillard for "Rust and Bone," Hellen Mirren for "Hitchcock," Naomi Watts for "The Impossible" and Rachael Weisz for "The Deep Blue Sea." Shut out from an acting nod: Robert De Niro, who has earned several nominations this awards season for his supporting role in "Silver Linings Playbook." The Hollywood Foreign Press Assn. divides its film honors between drama and comedy or musical, opening up of the field that led to best picture nominations for "Les Miserables," "The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel," "Moonrise Kingdom," "Salmon Fishing in the Yemen" and "Silver Linings Playbook." Joining Blunt and Smith as nominees for best actress in a comedy or musical are Judi Dench for "The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel," Jennifer Lawrence for "Silver Linings Playbook" and Meryl Streep for "Hope Springs." Vying with McGregor in the best actor in a comedy or musical category are Jack Black for "Bernie," Bradley Cooper for "Silver Linings Playbook," Hugh Jackman for "Les Miserables" and Bill Murray for "Hyde Park on the Hudson." Going up against Spielberg, Affleck and Tarantino in the best director category are Kathryn Bigelow for "Zero Dark Thirty" and Ang Lee for "Life of Pi." On the TV side, the nominees for best dramatic series are "Breaking Bad," "Boardwalk Empire," "Downton Abbey," "Homeland" and "The Newsroom." The nominees for best comedy or musical series are "The Big Bang Theory," "Episodes," "Girls," "Modern Family" and "Smash." Earning nominations for best miniseries or motion picture are "Game Change," "The Girl," "Hatfields & McCoys," "The Hour" and "Political Animals." The Golden Globes are to be presented Jan. 13 live on NBC from the Beverly Hilton Hotel, with Amy Poehler and Tina Fey as hosts. The two will also be competing against each other that night in the best performance by an actress in a TV comedy or musical category, with Fey earning a nomination for "30 Rock" and Poehler scoring a nomination for "Parks & Recreation." The snubs and surprises By Yvonne Villarreal Los Angeles Times (MCT) LOS ANGELES ��� Despite a blockbuster season ��� which included becoming the first cable series on any network to win the overall fall TV ratings war in the advertiser-coveted 18-49 demo ��� AMC's "The Walking Dead" couldn't gorge up a Golden Globe nomination. The zombie drama wasn't the only one left out in the cold when nominations were announced Thursday morning. It's hard to really classify a no-mention for "Sons of Anarchy" a snub, since the show is always overlooked, but considering its daring season and impressive viewership this season, it could've been the FX drama's year for recognition. HBO's "Game of Thrones" also got passed over after making a showing last year. Taking its place ��� somewhat surprisingly, considering the army of critics who have panned it ��� was HBO's "The Newsroom," whose headliner Jeff Daniels also racked up a nomination for his portrayal of prickly cable news anchorman Will McAvoy. Instead, "The Newsroom" will be joined by "Homeland," "Boardwalk Empire," soon-to-be-ending "Breaking Bad" (finally ��� after never receiving one!) and the only non-cable candidate, "Downton Abbey." That means "American Horror Story" was not recognized in the drama category after last year's debut. A bit startling, considering the Hollywood Foreign Press Assn. seems to be a big fan of Ryan Murphy's work _ but even usual suspect "Glee" didn't get a nomination. And wait, there's no "Mad Men" love? The awards favorite got shut out of the drama category ��� though it kept its name in the game with Jon Hamm's lead actor nomination. A welcome surprise was the nomination in the supporting role for "Homeland's" Mandy Patinkin for his role as Saul, the bearded THE LAW FIRM OF KENNY, SNOWDEN & NORINE TAKES PLEASURE IN ANNOUNCING ROB J.

The actor was overlooked last year by the Globes (and the Emmys). "Homeland" co-creator Howard Gordon said Patinkin's nomination was the one that made him "smile the biggest." "It is so well-deserved, and belated," Gordon said, jokingly adding that the beard is a "huge part" of Saul's appeal: "It's remarkable. You can lose yourself in it." On the comedy front, NBC comedy "Parks and Recreation" didn't earn a nomination ��� even though its leading lady, Amy Poehler, is cohost of the awards ceremony, proving that no good deed goes unpunished. On the bright side, the "SNL" alum was nominated for her turn as hopeless, Joe Biden-loving Leslie Knope. And we're leaving it up to you to label whether Lindsay Lohan's omission for her portrayal of Elizabeth Taylor in the Lifetime opus, "Liz & Dick," was a snub or a surprise.
