Colin Firth & Natalie Portman Scoop Actors Awards
Colin Firth was crowned best actor at the Golden Globe Awards for his role in ‘The Kings Speech’ last night. Natalie Portman scooped the best actress award for her role in ‘Black Swan’.
‘The Kings Speech’ is a film about King George VI’s trials as he tries to overcome a heavy stammer to lead Britain during wartime. Colin Firth had no such issues as he gave his acceptance speech saying,
“Getting through the mid stage of your life with your dignity and judgement intact can be somewhat precarious. Sometimes all you need a bit of gentle reassurance to keep on track. I’m not sure this could be described as gentle, but right now this is all that stands between me and a Harley Davidson.”
A pregnant Natalie Portman gave tribute to Benjamin Millipied whom she met on the set of ‘Black Swan’,
“You may remember him as the guy in the movie who was asked if he would sleep with that girl and he said, no. He is the best actor, it’s not true, he totally wants to sleep with me.”
