Perhaps biggest real snub golden globe

As every child could tell, the house of lords did nothing - and they did it very well. Perhaps the biggest real snub was golden globe winner sally hawkins sublime as free-spirited london schoolteacher poppy in mike leigh happy-go-lucky being left out of the best-actress race. If you could go back now and be emperor of the music business in 2001 or 2002 knowing what you know now, what might you have done differently in regards to the rise of file trading and p2p and the digital era in general. Hollywood heavyweights - mindful of the oscar broadcasts dwindling ratings - had been pushing the dark knight as a bona fide blockbuster rival to slumdog millionaire, but academy voters essentially stiffed the picture. Both gleason and colin farrell were fantastic in that as was ralph finnes.
