American Hustle,” David O. Russell’s disco-era flick about ambition and deceit, stole the show at the Golden Globes Sunday night, copping a slew of awards at the celeb-packed ceremony in Beverly Hills.
“Hustle” won the award for Best Comedy or Musical Film while the movie’s leading ladies took home the top trophies in their categories.
A stunning, short-haired Jennifer Lawrence told the audience that she was “terrified’’ as she accepted the Best Supporting Actress in a Motion Picture award for her role in the film.
“It’s an honor. I don’t know why I’m so terrified!’’ Lawrence said. “I’m sorry, I’m shaking so much!’’
Co-star star Amy Adams, who went braless with a dangerously plunging neckline, took home the award for Best Actress in a Comedy or Musical.
You cannot play me out of talking about my daughter,” Adams said as the orchestra began to play her off.
“My daughter, Aviana, who’s not old enough to understand this, but I love you so much. Thank you for teaching me to accept joy and let go of fear.”
In the drama category, Steve McQueen’s epic redemption narrative ,“12 Years a Slave,” won the award for Best Picture Drama.
Nine-time Golden Globe nominee Leonardo DiCaprio thanked Martin Scorsese as he took the Best Actor in a Comedy for playing a coke-addled stock swindler in “The Wolf of Wall Street.”
TV fans got another chance to say goodbye to meth-cooking Walter White, as AMC’s “Breaking Bad” took the award for Best Drama Series and Bryan Cranston took Best Drama Actor for his menacing portrayal of anti-hero White.
The Fox comedy “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” was a surprise winner for both Best Comedy TV series and Best Actor in a comedy series as a befuddled Andy Sandberg copped a trophy.
While the event showcased Tinseltown’s finest, it wasn’t without its high jinks and miscues.
The stars’ grand entrance was almost marred by a soggy, stinky red carpet, as a sewage pipe burst, sending water everywhere (making it a night of “Hustle” and flow).
Elisabeth Moss, of “Mad Men,” twice playfully tried to flip the bird while showcasing her manicure.
And not to be outdone by her younger counterparts, veteran actress Jacqueline Bisset gave a rambling speech after winning Best Supporting Actress for the BBC production “Dancing on the Edge.”
