Nicole Kidman has missed out on a Golden Globe for her performance in Hemingway Gellhorn while Christoph Waltz has won the supporting-actor Golden Globe for his role in Django Unchained.
Sunday's win was Waltz's second supporting-actor prize at the Globes, both of them coming in Quentin Tarantino films. Waltz's violent but paternal and polite Django character as a genteel bounty hunter who takes on an ex-slave as apprentice is a sharp contrast to the wickedly bloodthirsty Nazi he played in his Globe and Oscar-winning role in Tarantino's 2009 tale Inglourious Basterds.
'Let me gasp,' Waltz said. 'Quentin, you know that my indebtedness to you and my gratitude knows no words.'
British actress Maggie Smith won Supporting Actress, TV Series, Miniseries or Movie for her performance in Downton Abbey.
Game Change won for Miniseries or Movie, and its star Julianne Moore beat Kidman in the Actress, Miniseries or Movie category.
Show hosts Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, who co-starred in the 2008 big-screen comedy Baby Mama, had a friendly rivalry at the Globes. Both were nominated for best actress in a TV comedy series, Fey for 30 Rock and Poehler for Parks and Recreation.
'Tina, I just want to say that I very much hope that I win,' Poehler told Fey at the start of the show.
'Thank you. You're my nemesis. Thank you,' Fey replied.
Poehler also had a quip about television vs film at the Globes, where the small-screen category typically takes a backseat to the big-screen nominees.
'Only at the Golden Globes do the beautiful people of film rub shoulders with the rat-faced people of television,' Poehler said.
An unusually chilly day in southern California left Globe guests looking glamorous but feeling frigid.
Looking glamorous but feeling frigid, stars from film and television including Naomi Watts and Nicole Kidman arrive for the ceremony, battling crisp temperatures on the red carpet.
Debra Messing from Smash came in a strapless black gown and goosebumps. Asked how she was coping with the cold, she replied, 'Not well.'
Melissa Rauch of The Big Bang Theory also shivered in her strapless red gown. 'I'm absolutely freezing!' she said.
Claire Danes of Homeland in Versace and Zooey Deschanel of New Girl in a strapless Oscar de la Renta gown walked near heat lamps. 'I'm so cold. My legs aren't cold but my arms are,' said Deschanel.
