momentum to films in a crowded field, and in recent years, top Globes have gone to movies that went on to win the Oscar for best picture.

"I've made a lot of movies that people
just didn't go to see, so to make a movie that people just enjoyed this much
... it really came down to (director) Ridley Scott," Damon said.
"Carol" went
into the night with five nominations but came out empty-handed, as did
"The Big Short," about the financial crisis, and admired Catholic
Church sex abuse probe film "Spotlight."
Rising star Brie Larson, 26, beat veteran Cate
Blanchett to win best drama actress for her role as a young woman held captive
for years with a young son in "Room," while Lawrence won best comedy
