Last but not least: Can the Golden Globes gala still be saved?

 The labor dispute between screenwriters in Hollywood, which has been going on for weeks, is coming to a head: the writers' union WGA has announced that it will strike at the Golden Globes ceremony on January 13. The Golden Globe Gala is being organized by the production company Dick Clark Productions, it said. And there will be a strike against this company because it also exploits its authors. So this year we will probably be looking in vain for screenwriters walking the red carpet. But the organizers have even worse things in mind: the gala could be hindered by a picket line, which could put many stars in conflict. And lo and behold: Actress Glenn Close has already declared her solidarity with the WGA - she would never break through a picket line.
The Golden Globes organizers can only hope that one or two stars will be willing to cross the picket line. Tom Hanks and Johnny Depp, at least, will probably enjoy breaking the chain - their current projects are also blocked by the writers' strike.
