Three days into the new year and we have a public appearance already. On Friday, the Golden Globes gave a rousing launch to its Golden Gala: An Evening of Excellence, with Ted Danson receiving the fifth Carol Burnett Award and Viola Davis being given the Cecil B. DeMille Award in an intimate ceremony – meaning they scrap their Life Achievement Awards from Sunday’s ceremony and tv broadcast. Meryl Streep introduced Davis by saying she’d heard great things about the actress but didn’t know her work, until the first reading of John Patrick Shanley’s “Doubt.” Davis’ character doesn’t have much to do in the early part of the script and Davis sat there silently “like a quiet volcano pretending to be a hill.” Davis’s eight-minute scene with Streep made everyone in the room aware of her power, and the 2008 film brought her worldwide audiences. A couple of pictures from the gala have been added to the photo gallery.
