Anne Hathaway And Kate Winslet Favourites To Win Best Actress Golden Globe
Tuesday 23 December 2008 at 11:02
The betting is extremely tight in the Golden Globes Drama Actress category with bookies finding it extremely hard to separate three contenders. The bookies are even disagreeing on who is favourite but one actress has come out on top with most bookies.
Young Anne Hathaway Favourite For Best Actress Award
Anne Hathaway is the general favourite with the bookies and can be backed at 9/4 with Paddy Power to pick up the Golden Globe for best actress. It was her performance in Rachel Getting Married that wowed the critics and it looks as though she could be winning the first Golden Globe of her career.
Kate Winslet Looking For Better Luck With Revolutionary Road
Kate Winslet, representing the UK, is the second favourite to win the best actress and she can be backed at 11/4 with Paddy Power. Her role in Revolutionary Road cast her alongside Leonardo Di Caprio for the first time since Titanic and the film was directed by husband Sam Mendes. Winslet has not always had the luck she deserves at award ceremonies, she has been nominated for best actress at the Oscars five times and missed out each time but she is likely to be receiving plenty of awards for this role in Revolutionary Road.
Meryl Streep Still Getting Great Roles
Meryl Streep can be backed at 11/4 with Bet365 to win the Golden Globe for her performance in Doubt. Streep plays a nun who confronts a priest about abuse to a black student. It looks set to do well at the Golden Globes with five nominations.
Kristin Scott Thomas And Angelina Jolie Up For Award
The betting is completed by Kristin Scott Thomas who is 11/2 with Bet365 and Angelina Jolie who is 7/1 with Bet365. Kristin Scott Thomas makes it two out of five for the UK for her performance in I've Loved You So Long and Angelina Jolie is the outsider for her powerful role Changeling.
