Long memories have helped early film releases
As the end-of-year skies clear and kudo givers attempt to distinguish genuine supernovae from puny white dwarfs, does the Hollywood Foreign Press Assn.’s telescope boast a slightly longer focal length than anyone else’s?
You probably won’t get much argument from the producers of “Bend It Like Beckham,” “About a Boy,” “Thank You for Smoking” or “The Devil Wears Prada,” all of which opened in Q1 or Q2 but by December were resurrected to be named among their years’ finest by the 80-odd members of the Golden Globes-giving org.
Award watchers marveled at last year’s performance of “In Bruges,” a violent, funny little U.K. import from all the way back in February that ended up nabbing three Globe nods, including one in the top category. Did the outcome directly influence the film’s coveted Oscar nom for original screenplay? Guesses HFPA president Philip Berk: “Almost certainly.”
These phenomena are undeniably cheering to the likes of Peter Saraf, producer of this year’s well-received March release “Sunshine Cleaning,” which must depend on long memories to gain nominators’ attention. “When you come to the end of the year with an original screenplay and two extraordinary performances that are among the year’s best, you start to find ways to remind people this is a movie they loved in a quieter time.” As veteran campaign consultant Tony Angellotti puts it, “It’s usually necessary to transport voters in the way-back machine concerning the comedy category.”
The Globes nominators don’t have to go quite as way-back as other groups, due to a combination of factors including the most obvious — the Globes’ separation of dramas from comedies and musicals.
Berk denies that his colleagues have longer memories than others, but Angellotti points out, “Oftentimes the year-end comedies are not the type or style of comedy they prefer, and therefore we have to look back to the first part of the year to flush out the field” with tuners like “Mamma Mia!” and “Hairspray” or last year’s winner, “Vicky Cristina Barcelona.”
A survey of past early-release HPFA contenders reveals mostly lighter fare, but dramas have been nominated in recent years — “Wonder Boys” (February); “The Horse Whisperer” (May); “The Bridges of Madison County” and “The Truman Show” (both in June) — none of which found their way into the Academy’s top five.
A subtler contributor is the obligation of the foreign scribes to keep up with virtually everything as it comes out. Berk notes, “We not only have to see the film for Golden Globe consideration, but to write our interviews and make a living as journalists.” Their attention, then, is as keen in spring as in deep midwinter, whereas working pros in the Academy and guilds likely don’t see many more films in the course of a year than an avid civilian.
According to one awards consultant, “Opening early is better; the challenges at the end of the year are almost overwhelming.” A feature managing to stay in the critical and public eye after an early opening — 2005′s best picture “Crash,” for example, or “The Hurt Locker” this year — takes on a sense of inevitability as “the little pic that could.” (“Little Miss Sunshine” producer Saraf notes the July release “was still in theaters at Christmas; we had to pull it out to get the DVDs into voters’ stockings.”)
By contrast, WB prexy of domestic distribution Dan Fellman likes
Clint Eastwood at Christmastime. After parlaying late-year releases “Letters From Iwo Jima” and “Million Dollar Baby” into major award glory, WB has high hopes for Dec. 11′s “Invictus.” He notes that the week from Christmas through New Year’s is the year’s biggest in terms of movie attendance, “and you want to have one of your bigger guns in there.”
But some think Warners waited too long to open “Gran Torino,” which didn’t connect with audiences until the week Oscar nomination ballots were due. Years earlier, however, an August release may have actually helped “Unforgiven,” giving it time to mature in voters’ minds. “Like (early May’s) ‘Gladiator,’ it crossed over from what was expected to be a male audience to a general one, propelled by women and all ages. It was a phenomenon,” Fellman observes.
Given their professional obligation to stay abreast of new releases year-round, the foreign press have a jump on other voting orgs who depend on a glut of screeners arriving each December. As one Academy member opines, “You get 50, 60 DVDs, and you say, ‘God, I haven’t seen these 20 or whatever.’ We have to make choices. How many DVDs can a working person watch in a week? Two?”
For the HFPA, screeners are merely opportunities to spot-check a fondly remembered pic or performance. As Berk himself offers, “If there’s anything in the borderlines, I’ll go to the trouble of seeing the DVD again.”

HFPA shakes up kudofest with a live show and host
|
|
STANDUP GUY: Ricky Gervais‘ selection as host of the upcoming Golden Globes ceremony was a ‘collaborative’ decision.
|
What’s a venerable awards ceremony to do when ratings are down, other newbie awards shows are nipping at its heels and the world in general is moving at a much faster pace than when it began? Change things up, of course.
Which explains why the Hollywood Foreign Press Assn. (HFPA) along with NBC-TV and Dick Clark Prods. have decided to do things a bit differently for the 67th Annual Golden Globes Awards, due to air Jan. 17. They will start the shake-up by going with a nationwide live feed at 5 p.m. PST, when the show actually begins at the Beverly Hilton Hotel, rather than a delay to 9 p.m. PST.
“The core of the decision was that the Globes are unique,” says Orly Adelson, president of Dick Clark Prods. “They are the first award show of the year, and, being so, the curiosity level is enormous. But today, with the information that comes through so quickly, there’s no mystery anymore (after the fact). So the minute it is live, everybody has access to the information via the Internet.”
On the subject of the plethora of awards shows, Globes exec producer Barry Adelman says: “We think there’s room for everybody, we don’t get into competition. We’re just worried about our show.”
The Globes’ Nielsen ratings has plummeted from 26.8 million total viewers in 2004 to 2009′s 14.9 million. That’s partially a result of the Globes getting KO’d by the writers strike in 2008 (which led to actors refusing to attend the ceremony — which became a press conference) and then feeling a bit weak in the legs in 2009.
“Two years ago we actually had the strike, and last year we had the same problem with the actors strike looming,” Adelson points out. “So in neither case could we come full blown and do the marketing that normally is done for this show. So much energy went into ‘will it or won’t it’ that it held us back in many ways.”
So the “collaborative” decision to go live on the West Coast, emulating the Academy Awards, was one way to up the ratings ante. Another is to add a host, for the first time in 15 years.
“The idea of having a host emanated from DCP and Barry Adelman,” says HFPA prexy Philip Berk. “He felt that it would certainly help the show if we had a host, in the sense that you can get a lot of pre-publicity over having a host.
“I told him that most of the awards shows are trying to emulate us, and the fact is that our show is driven by awards. We don’t have musical numbers, we don’t have standup routines, and this is what most of the critics, and we assume most of the public, find so attractive about the Golden Globes. So the idea of being regressive and going back and doing what the others are doing, and failing at doing, seemed completely a nonissue for us.”
But the HFPA, DCP and NBC happily came to an agreement over one man, who said yes to their offer.
Berk recalls telling his cohorts, “The idea of a host is absolutely something that the Hollywood Foreign Press is not going to even entertain. The only person who I feel could possibly do anything for the show, who could really make a difference, and who I would accept as host would be Ricky Gervais. But he’ll never do it!”
Gervais, who made his hosting announcement complete with a bottle of beer in his hand, is sure to keep up the tradition of the Golden Globes being a slightly tipsy affair, where anything can happen. Be it Jack Nicholson in a well-lubricated state (was it Valium as he claimed, or the Moet Champagne that is prominently displayed/advertised on every table every year?), Christine Lahti winning while in the john, Liz Taylor losing it while trying hard to present the best picture award or Ving Rhames giving his award away to competitor Jack Lemmon, the Globes are always what its promoters insist on calling “the party of the year.”
No matter how the national live feed plays out this year, it really isn’t the free-flowing booze that makes the HFPA’s annual party such a laugh.
“The truth is that the party atmosphere is not based on the fact that there’s booze up on the table or anything like that,” Berk insists. “This party atmosphere is mainly because of what we have — this fabulous pit, which no other awards show has — in which you have, within arm’s length of each other, the most important producers, studio executives, all the movers and shakers of Hollywood. That’s where the party atmosphere comes from, the fact that we have this intimacy that no other awards show has. And then the booze on the table, well, we’ve never had people getting drunk, because all we serve is the Moet Champagne and the wine.”

The HFPA’s choice of Martin Scorsese to receive the Cecil B. DeMille Award at the coming Golden Globes ceremony has been greeted with great enthusiasm by those who know and have worked with him.
Two-time Oscar winner Daniel Day-Lewis, who worked with the director on The Age Of Innocence and The Gangs of New York, said: “He is and remains, for most actors working today, a man of the most supremely indescribably gifts as a director. Taxi Driver was a seminal film for all of us when I was a kid and living at that time in South East London. Me and all my mates went to see that movie four or five times in the first week it came out. We wanted to know every single thing, not just about those people in the world he was describing, but about the man behind the story—Scorsese.
“Long before I ever got to meet him he’d already ready taken on almost fearful proportions in my imagination. One of the great joys which I had never expected in my life was to meet that man and get to work with him. And then get to work with him again. That will always remain one of the great, great joys of my life. There’s nobody like him.”
Robert DeNiro, who won his Best Actor Oscar for the Scorsese-directed Raging Bull, has worked with the filmmaker eight times and is currently talking with him about a ninth collaboration. “Everybody knows that we’ve done a lot of movies together and we have a great relationship,” he says.
“I think any actor who works with Marty will tell you that he’s open to ideas. If you suggest something he’ll grab it and try and do it and if it doesn’t work he’ll get around it. It might not work but he’ll try, so the actors feel very very confident that whatever their ideas are they’re being listened to and received with open arms and that support is a very important thing to have.”

HOLLYWOOD, CA – Martin Scorsese will be honored at “The 67th Annual Golden Globe® Awards” on January 17 with the Cecil B. DeMille Award for his “outstanding contribution to the entertainment field.” The award, voted by the Board of Directors of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, was announced by Vera Farmiga at a morning press conference. The show, hosted by Ricky Gervais, will be broadcast live coast to coast Sunday, January 17 on NBC (5 to 8 pm PT, 8 to 11 pm ET) from The Beverly Hilton.
Scorsese received two Golden Globe Awards for “Best Director of a Motion Picture”; for “The Departed” and “Gangs of New York.” He received five additional Golden Globe nominations, including four as Best Director (“Casino,” “Age of Innocence,” “Goodfellas,” and Raging Bull”) and one for Best Screenplay for “Goodfellas” (with Nicolas Pileggi).
Recent Cecil B. DeMille winners include Steven Spielberg (2009), Warren Beatty (2007), Anthony Hopkins (2006), Robin Williams (2005) and Michael Douglas (2004).
Martin Scorsese was born in 1942 in New York City, and was raised in the downtown neighborhood of Little Italy, which later provided the inspiration for several of his films. Scorsese earned a BS degree in film communications in 1964, followed by an MA in the same field in 1966 at New York University’s School of Film. During this time, he made numerous prize-winning short films, including “The Big Shave.”
In 1968, Scorsese directed his first feature film, entitled “Who’s That Knocking at My Door?.” He served as Assistant Director and an editor of the documentary “Woodstock” in 1970, and won critical and popular acclaim for his 1973 film “Mean Streets.” Scorsese directed his first documentary film, “Italianamerican,” in 1974.
In 1976, Scorsese’s “Taxi Driver” was awarded the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival. He followed with “New York, New York” in 1977, “The Last Waltz”in 1978, and “Raging Bull” in 1980, which received five Golden Globe Award Nominations and eight Academy Award Nominations including Best Picture and Best Director. Scorsese went on to direct “The Color of Money,” “The Last Temptation of Christ,” “Goodfellas,” “Cape Fear,” “Casino,” “Kundun” and “The Age of Innocence,” among other films.
In 1996, Scorsese completed a 4-hour documentary, “A Personal Journey With Martin Scorsese Through American Movies,” co-directed by Michael Henry Wilson. The documentary was commissioned by the British Film Institute to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the birth of cinema. In 2001, Scorsese released “Il Mio Viaggio In Italia,” an epic documentary that affectionately chronicles his love for Italian Cinema. His long-cherished project, “Gangs of New York,” was released in 2002, earning numerous critical honors.
In 2003, PBS broadcast the seven-film documentary series “Martin Scorsese Presents: The Blues.” “The Aviator” was released in December of 2004 and earned five Academy Awards in addition to the Golden Globe and BAFTA awards for Best Picture. In 2005, “No Direction Home: Bob Dylan” was broadcast as part of the “American Masters” series on PBS and released on DVD worldwide by Paramount Home Entertainment.
Scorsese’s most recent feature, “The Departed,” was released to critical acclaim in October 2006 and has been honored with the Golden Globe, Director’s Guild of America, New York Film Critics, National Board of Review and Critic’s Choice awards for Best Director, in addition to four Academy Awards including Best Picture and Best Director. “Shine A Light,” Scorsese’s documentary of the Rolling Stones in concert was released worldwide April 4, 2008.
He is currently in post production on “Shutter Island” due for release in the spring of 2010 and he is executive producer on the upcoming HBO drama series “Boardwalk Empire.” Scorsese’s additional awards and honors include the Golden Lion from the Venice Film Festival (1995), the AFI Life Achievement Award (1997), the Honoree at the Film Society of Lincoln Center’s 25th Gala Tribute (1998), and the DGA Lifetime Achievement Award (2003) and The Kennedy Center Honors (2007).
Scorsese is the founder and chair of The Film Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to the preservation and protection of motion picture history. At the 2007 Cannes Film Festival Scorsese launched the World Cinema Foundation, a not-for-profit organization dedicated to the preservation and restoration of neglected films from around the world, with special attention paid to those developing countries lacking the financial and technical resources to do the work themselves. Scorsese is the founder and chair.
“The 67th Annual Golden Globe Awards” will be seen in more than 160 countries worldwide and is one of the few awards ceremonies that span both television and motion picture achievements. The special will be produced by dick clark productions in association with the Hollywood Foreign Press Association.
Philip Berk is President of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. Orly Adelson, president of dick clark productions, and Barry Adelman will executive-produce the special. Chris Donovan is the director and dick clark productions’ Bob Bardo is the executive in charge of production.

UNIVERSAL CITY, CALIF. – October 26, 2009 — Multi-talented Golden Globe and Emmy Award winner
Ricky Gervais (“The Invention of Lying,” “The Office”) will host “The 67th Annual Golden Globe Awards” on Sunday, January 17, 2010 on NBC. This year’s show will be broadcast live coast-to-coast from 5-8 p.m. (PT) and 8-11 p.m. (ET) from the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills. This marks the first time the telecast has had a host since 1995.
The Hollywood Foreign Press Association, dick clark productions and NBC made the announcement today.
“Not only is this the biggest Hollywood celebration of the industry which includes both film and TV, but also an environment where I feel I can get free reign as a host. I have resisted many other offers like this, but there are just some things you don’t turn down,” said Gervais.
“Ricky is certainly one of the funniest people on the planet and has provided some of the most hilarious and memorable awards show moments in recent memory,” said Paul Telegdy, Executive Vice President, Alternative Programming, NBC and Universal Media Studios. “His unique comedic style will enhance the only awards show that brings together television and film stars to celebrate entertainment’s biggest night of the year.”
“We are delighted to have
Ricky Gervais as the host on our show,” said Philip Berk, President of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. “He’ll bring his unique brand of humor and charm to what will continue to be a fast paced award show.”
Gervais is probably best known for his role as David Brent on the BBC version of “The Office.” Gervais produced, wrote (with Stephen Merchant), directed and acted on the mock documentary series from 2001-2003. Twelve episodes and a two-part Christmas special later, “The Office” is consigned to broadcasting history as one of the most perfectly crafted comedy series in British TV history. The show was showered with awards and critical acclaim and Gervais became a household name. Gervais and Merchant teamed up again in 2005 to create the award-winning series “Extras” in which he played an aspiring actor.
Following his success from “The Office,” Gervais embarked on his first live standup show “Animals,” based on his fascination with the animal kingdom. He spent much of 2004 on tour around the U.K. with his follow-up standup act the, highly acclaimed “Politics.” Both shows became best selling DVDs. In 2007, Gervais’ stand-up show “Fame” became the fastest-selling British comedy tour of all time. In 2008, Gervais took to the stage again and received an Emmy nomination for his special “Ricky Gervais: Out of England- The Stand-Up.”
“Cemetery Junction” – Gervais’ second film as writer and director and his first film co-written and directed with Stephen Merchant, is slated to be released in April 2010. He is currently in development with HBO for “The
Ricky Gervais Show” – an animation of his record-breaking audio books, scheduled to air on the network early 2010. Gervais is also in development with Illumination (“The Simpsons Movie”) for “Flanimals,” movie – based on his award-winning children’s book.
Gervais also executive-produces the American version of “The Office” with Greg Daniels, Ben Silverman, Stephen Merchant, Howard Klein and Paul Lieberstein.
Nominations for “The 67th Annual Golden Globe Awards” will be announced at 8 a.m. (ET) on Tuesday, December 15.
“The 67th Annual Golden Globe Awards” will be seen in more than 160 countries worldwide and is one of the few awards ceremonies that span both television and motion picture achievements. The special will be produced by dick clark productions in association with the Hollywood Foreign Press Association.
Philip Berk is President of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. Orly Adelson, president of dick clark productions and Barry Adelman will executive-produce the special. Chris Donovan is the director and dick clark productions Bob Bardo is the executive in charge of production.
