There were many touching moments throughout tonight’s Golden Globe Awards ceremony. Highlights included Morgan Freeman’s heartfelt speech in accepting the Cecil B. DeMille Award from Sidney Poitier and Helen Mirren, and a hysterical bilingual acceptance speech from the cast of "Modern Family" after their win for best television series – comedy or musical.
Michelle Williams’s thank-you speech dedicated to daughter Matilda after her award for best performance by an actress in a motion picture comedy or musical proved to be another sweet moment, and a dog almost stole the show when hitting the stage with "The Artist’s" ensemble for their win for best motion picture – comedy or musical. Cute couples also proved a theme of the night, with the adorable singing duo of William H. Macy and Felicity Huffman presenting best supporting actress in a television series to Jessica Lange. Frequent pans to inseparable pairs during the awards included George Clooney and Stacy Keibler and Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman, and luckily a camera caught Brad Pitt’s loving gaze as he watched Angelina Jolie onstage presenting.
