Hace poco se anunciaron los nominados a los Golden Globes y como en la mayoría de los premios norteamericanos de corte comercial no hay que hacerse muchas ilusiones ni esperar demasiado. Simplemente es cine comercial.
Imagínense yendo a una peli de serie B, una refactura de George A. Romero de zombies y sangre desmedida. Qué es lo peor que puede pasar? Que al final, algo de la peli lo conmueva y haya valido la pena ir a cine por el sólo hecho de pasar entretenido un rato.
Así es como veo los Golden Globes, así, y como preámbulo de otra gran farsa: Los Oscar de La Academia.
Este año, no sólo es la primera vez que tengo oportunidad de escribir antes del acto de premiación de este evento, este año además vamos a institucionalizar el juego de quiénes queremos que ganen en sus respectivas categorías mas o menos como lo hicimos con los óscares de este año.
Entonces el juego va en dos partes.
La primera, la lista.
Que no importe si son noventa y pico periodistas extranjeros trabajando en Hollywood, si son pocos, si son muchos, si están parcializados. Simplemente, son las pelis que son y hablaremos de las que faltaron en su momento.
