The 65th Annual Golden Globe Awards – Beverly Hills, CA – January 13, 2008

The Golden Globe Awards are American awards for motion pictures and television programs, given out each year during a formal dinner. Run as a fundraiser since 1944 by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA), the awards are a major part of the film industry's "awards season" which culminates each year with the Oscars and Screen Actors Guild Awards. This is particularly true since 1996, when the HFPA signed a new television broadcast contract with NBC (prior to that, they were aired on TBS, but before the existence of TBS, one of the "big three" commercial networks, i.e. CBS, NBC, or ABC, always broadcast the show). The broadcast of the Golden Globe Awards generally ranks as the third most-watched awards show each year, behind only the Oscars and Grammys, and film studios actively solicit support from HFPA members and mention nominations and awards in their advertisements. The Golden Globes has grown to one of the highest honors for actors and actresses.

Festival de Cannes –
Cannes, France – May 14-25, 2008

Cannes is the biggest and most famous film festival in the world. In 1939 the French government chose Cannes as the suitably sunny location for its inaugural Film Festival.

It is also the main annual rendez-vous for all members of the movie industry. As well as screening world premieres of the year's biggest films, the festival includes masterclasses, tributes and exhibitions honouring stars of the silver screen past and present. Only journalists and those working in the film business are allowed to attend the event, but the presence of so many stars in town always attracts thousands of visitors hoping to catch a glimpse of the rich and famous.
