If anyone had a better night than Danny Boyle, it was Kate Winslet. First, she took home the award for Best Supporting Actress for her work in The Reader. Then, amazingly, she took home 'the big one' -- Best Actress in a Motion Picture (Drama) for her spirited performance in Revolutionary Road.
The competition was stiff, as Angelina Jolie (Changeling) and Meryl Streep (Doubt) were strong contenders. Had Streep emerged victorious, it would have been her seventh Golden Globe. But that wasn't to be, and Winslet happily scooped up her second award of the night!
In the picture: Kate Winslet holds her awards for Best Actress in a Motion Picture - Drama Revolutionary Road and Best Supporting Actress in a Motion Picture for The Reader with husband-director Sam Mendes, who directed Revolutionary Road at the 66th annual Golden Globe awards
