LOS ANGELES — Hollywood loves a comeback, and that's arguably what the Golden Globe Awards staged Tuesday night.
After the last two years' ceremonies were mired in controversy sparked by a Los Angeles Times investigation of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, the awards show returned to the Beverly Hilton — and to the airwaves — for a star-studded affair broadcast live on NBC.
The Globes, now under new ownership, kicked off awards season with a freewheeling show that clocked in at nearly three-and-a-half hours and was full of famous faces in the audience.
