2013 Golden Globe Awards nominations announced

The nominations for the 2013 Golden Globe Awards have been announced, with Les Misérables , Zero Dark Thirty and Django Unchained leading the pack.

As you might have expected, there’s a few forehead-slapping choices on there: The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel features prominently, and Ewan McGregor’s nominated for Salmon Fishing In The Yemen (when The Impossible is surely a better showcase of his acting talent).

Elsewhere, there aren’t really any huge surprises, except for the fact that Tom Hooper missed out on a directing nod for Les Mis .
