Woody Allen Wins Best Screenplay at 2012 Golden Globes

Posted on January 16, 2012

Woody Allen won Best Screenplay at the 2012 Golden Globe Awards for Midnight in Paris. Allen both wrote and directed the wonderful film. The lead character Gil (Owen Wilson) meets many famous artists, publishers and writers from the 1920s as he travels back in time in Paris. F. Scott Fitzgerald, Ernest Hemingway, Pablo Picasso, Gertrude Stein and Salvador Doli are some of the famous people Gil encounters.

Here is a video clip from the announcement of Woody Allen as the winner last night by Clive Owen and Nicole Kidman. It is very short because Woody Allen was not present. He does not usually attend award shows. He did make a post-911 appearance at the Oscars in 2002 to introduce a short clip highlighting films made in New York. Take a look:
