Boyhood, Grand Budapest Hotel win top Golden Globes


Dirctor Richard Linklater won big at Sunday night's 72nd annual Golden Globe Awards, picking up best director and best dramatic film honors for his 12-years-in-the-making Boyhood. Wes Anderson's Grand Budapest Hotel won best picture, comedy or musical. Michael Keaton (Birdman) and Amy Adams (Big Eyes) won best actors in a comedy, and Julianne Moore (Still Alice) and Eddie Redmayne (The Theory of Everything) won best dramatic actor honors.
"Bottom line is we're all flawed in this world — no one's perfect," Linklater said in his best director acceptance speech. "I want to dedicate this to parents that are evolving everywhere and families that are just passing through this world and doing their best." You can see more winners (and a bit of what they said) in the Associated Press video roundup below. --Peter Weber
