GLITZ and glamour took the night off at the 65th Annual Golden Globes, but Cate Blanchett still came out a winner.
Blanchett was named best supporting actress for playing Bob Dylan in the music legend's biopic, I'm Not There, at a 30-minute press conference that replaced the usual three hour, star-studded Golden Globes ceremony.
The event fell victim to the two-month screenwriters' strike that has crippled movie and TV production in the US.
Blanchett was a chance to claim a double victory as she was also nominated in the best actress in a film drama category for her performance in Elizabeth: The Golden Age, but the award went to British actor Julie Christie for Away from Her.
There were two other Australians nominated - Rachel Griffiths for Brothers & Sisters and Rose Byrne for Damages - in the best supporting actress TV category, but both were bypassed.
Another British actress was triumphant in the category, Samantha Morton, for Longford.
The shock winner was Atonement, a romantic drama starring Keira Knightley, which scored the best film drama Golden Globe, beating favourites No Country for Old Men and There Will Be Blood.
Daniel Day-Lewis and Johnny Depp firmed as the frontrunners for the best acting Oscar after wins tonight.
Day-Lewis (There Will Be Blood) was named best actor in a drama and Depp (Sweeney Todd) won best actor in a comedy/musical.
French actress Marion Cotillard, for her role as songstress Edith Piaf in La Vie en Rose, won the best actress in a comedy/musical Golden Globe and appears the biggest threat to Christie for the best actress Oscar.
In the TV awards, David Duchovny won best actor in a comedy/musical TV series for Californication and Glenn Close was named best actress in a TV drama for Damages.
The organisers of the awards were forced to drop the usual star-studded ceremony after striking Hollywood screenwriters threatened to picket the ceremony.
There are fears next month's Oscars will also fall victim to the strike.
