69th Annual Golden Globes Nominations

The 69th Annual Golden Globes Nominations have been announced and, as expected, no major surprises. "The Artist" (6 nominations), "The Descendants" (5 nominations), "The Help" (5 nominations), "Moneyball" (4 nominations) and "Midnight in Paris" (4 nominations) are clearly the movies that will receive the most attention during the awards season. "Hugo" (3 nominations) and "War Horse" (2 nominations) managed to take some notice, thanks mostly to the fact that they were directed by Scorsese and Spielberg, respectively.  And in another surprise, David Fincher's remake of "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo" scored two nominations, for Best Actress - Drama (Rooney Mara) and Best Original Score (Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross). The Golden Globes will be awarded on January 15, 2012, and the show will be, once again, hosted by Ricky Gervais. Read the full list of nominations after the jump :
