      "Boyhood" as it clinches the night's top honor of best drama

      Boyhood" is the only movie to win three Golden Globes this

      Academy Awards roll around on February 22.


      Linklater projects.

      family, thank you very much."


      03:55 GMT - Triumphs for Julianne Moore, Eddie Redmayne -

      "When she (Genova) wrote this book, she told me that no one
      wanted to make it into a movie because no one wanted to see a
      movie about a middle-aged woman," Moore said.


      "I want to thank the people that actually made the
      woman."


      Best actor in a drama film goes to Eddie Redmayne for his
      portrayal of the celebrated English physicist Stephen
      Hawking, who he remembered personally meeting.


      "This was a huge privilege," he said, remembering how the
      Hawking family "let us into their lives and entrusted us with
      their story."


      03:46 GMT - 'Grand Budapest Hotel' takes best comedy film -
      Wes Anderson's whimsically quirky "The Grand Budapest Hotel"
      wins the Golden Globe for best comedy or musical film.


      His project, a tale about the friendship between a concierge
      and a lobby boy in a grand hotel in a fictional Central
      European country between the world wars, was nominated for
      four Golden Globes.


      "I'm not going to spend many of my few seconds up here
      thanking people like Stephen and Scott and Jim and Nancy,
      Jeremy and Bill, Roman and Jason, Adrian and Jim and Rich and
      especially Polly," said Anderson, who went on to express
      appreciation to the Hollywood foreign press.

      It's his first Golden Globe laurel, after Keaton -- who
      portrays a washed-up actor struggling to rebuild his career
      with a Broadway play -- was nominated in 2003 for "Live from
      Baghdad."


      "The reason that people go on about thanking so many people
      is there are always so many people to thank," he said, as the
      show runs about 10 minutes behind schedule.


      To director Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu, he said: "Thank you
      for letting me be part of this unbelievably gutsy,
      unapologetic look at human nature. Thanks it's been a
      ride."


      03:32 GMT - Ruth Wilson wins for 'The Affair' - And it's a
      second win as well for "The Affair" for which Ruth Wilson
      wins best actress in a TV drama.


      She recalled being nominated several years ago during the
      Hollywood writers' strike, for a British TV adaptation of
      Jane Eyre, and the disappointment she felt when she
      lost.


      Not this time. "To the writers, for writing one of the most
      complex and, shall we say, depressed characters I've ever
      played... thank you," the English-born actress said.


      03:24 GMT - Linklater wins best director for 'Boyhood' -
      "Boyhood" picks up a second Golden Globe, this time for best
      director, as Richard Linklater is rewarded for his ambitious
      coming-of-age drama that he filmed over 12 years.

      personal to everybody who worked on it," he said, honoring
      the 450 members of the cast and crew who stuck with the
      project over the years.

      Linklater dedicated his Golden Globe to his parents, and to
      all families that are "just passing through this world and
      doing their best... Bottom line is, we're all flawed in this
      world. No one's perfect."


      03:10 GMT - Career kudos for George Clooney - At the age of
      53, George Clooney may seem too young for a lifetime
      achievement award, but he's getting one anyway.


      The three-time Golden Globe winner joins the likes of Steven
      Spielberg, Martin Scorsese, Robert De Niro and Jody Foster,
      among recent recipients, in accepting the Cecil B. DeMille
      award.


      "For the record, if you are in this room, you caught the
      brass ring," he told his fellow thespians. "You get to do
      what you always dreamed to do, and be celebrated for it. That
      ain't losing."


      "I've had a pretty good year myself," he added. "It's a
      humbling thing when you find someone you love... Amal,
      whatever alchemy it is that brought us together, I couldn't
      be more proud to be your husband."


      On the millions who turned out to demonstrate in Paris and
      around the world, Clooney called Sunday "an extraordinary
      day" in which Christians, Jews and Muslims "didn't march in
      protest; they marched in support of the idea that we will not
      walk in fear."


      "We won't do it. So, 'Je suis Charlie.' Thank you."


      02:58 GMT - Spacey wins for 'House of Cards' - Eight-time
      nominee and two-time Oscar winner Kevin Spacey collects best
      actor in a TV drama series for his gripping portrayal of a

      "This is just the beginning of my revenge," says Spacey,
      channeling his character Frank Underwood, before thanking
      Netflix "for their incredible support."


      Spacey, nominated for the same role at last year's Golden
      Globes, made it clear he would not rest on his laurels.


      "As I stand here tonight, as someone who has enjoyed such an
      extraordinary career, and in large measure because of the
      people in this room, I just want it to be better," he said of
      his craft.


      "But this is very encouraging. Thank you very much."


      Season three of "House of Cards" drops on February 27.


      Winning for best TV drama series is "The Affair," starring

      Island town. The series, which ran on Showtime in October,
      has been renewed for a second season.

      to bring it up to me," she says, referring to Jake
      Gyllenhaal, who's up tonight for best actor in a drama for
      "Nightcrawler."

      Gyllenhaal takes her turn praising the growing number of good
      roles for women on both the big and small screen.


      "When I look around the room at the women who are in here,
      and I think about the performances that I have watched this
      year, what I see actually are women who are sometimes
      powerful and sometimes not, sometimes sexy, sometimes not,
      sometimes honorable, sometimes not.


      "And what I think is new is the wealth of roles for actual
      women in television and in film," she said, prompting a
      strong round of applause from fellow thespians who clearly
      fully agree.


      02:46 GMT - Russian drama wins best foreign film -
      "Leviathan," a drama set in a Russian coastal town haunted by

      transgender community.


      "Thank you, thank you, thanks for your courage... your
      inspiration... your patience... and for letting us be part of
      the change," he says.

      its first Golden Globe win of the night, for best
      screenplay.


      Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu, Nicolas Giacobone, Alexander
      Dinelaris and Armando Bo, co-writers of the black comedy
      directed by Inarritu, gathered on stage to collect the
      honor.


      "How did we end up here?" says Inarritu. "Everything was
      about that eagle guy and really, that voice was getting us
      crazy while we were doing this script."


      02:26 GMT - Patricia Arquette wins for 'Boyhood' - Patricia
      Arquette wins best supporting actress in a motion picture for
      her performance in "Boyhood," the first Golden Globe for one
      of the most hotly-tipped projects of the evening.


      "Many thanks to our visionary director Richard Linklater for
      allowing me to be a part of something so human, so simple and
      ground-breaking and significant in the history of cinema,"
      she says.


      Linklater broke cinematic convention by making his
      coming-of-age drama over a period of a dozen years.


      "You placed in my hands the part of Olivia, an
      under-appreciated single mother," said Arquette, cradling the
      first Golden Globe of her career.

      Amy Adams for director Tim Burton's "Big Eyes," about the
      1950s painter Margaret Keane and the way her husband took
      credit for her work.


      "To say I am ill-prepared for this moment is a huge
      understatement. I feel so fortunate to be here," she says,
      before saluting her fellow female thespians as role models
      for herself and her four-year-old daughter.


      "It's just so wonderful that women today have such a strong
      voice. I'm so grateful for all you women in this room," she

      says.

      standing ovation at the Golden Globes for a strong message
      from the Hollywood Foreign Press Association about freedom of
      speech and expression, AFP's Michael Thurston reports.


      "Together we will stand united against anyone who will
      repress free speech, anywhere, from North Korea to Paris,"
      said HFPA president Theo Kingma, bringing the applauding
      audience to its feet.

      through the show.


      01:40 GMT - 'Transparent' wins best TV comedy - It's a clear
      win for Amazon's streaming video comedy "Transparent." The

      Louis-Dreyfus and Taylor Schilling from "Orange is the New
      Black."

      Korea as Fey and Poehler introduce the latest "member" of the

      performance in the wildly popular British period drama

      before expressing a fan-like admiration for fellow nominee
      Kathy Bates.


      "Downtown Abbey," which just started its fourth season on US

      its first season, and Maggie Smith won the best supporting
      actress honor for season two.


      01:09 GMT - Best supporting actor in a motion picture - First
      award of the night is best supporting actor in a motion
      picture. And the winner is ... J.K. Simmons for
      "Whiplash."

      manages to get a few thanks in anyway, including his wife,
      children, "mom and dad."

      George and Amal Clooney, Helen Mirren, Kathy Bates and Diane
      Kruger were among those who brandished signs or wore pins
      reading "Je Suis Charlie."


      Amal Clooney, elegant in a black Dior couture gown with a "Je
      suis Charlie" pin on her clutch bag, said she had chosen
      something from the fashion house "in solidarity with the
      French."


      "Gone Girl" star Rosamund Pike -- who had a baby just over a
      month ago -- was among the first to arrive, sporting a
      sleeveless cleavage-baring ivory Vera Wang gown with waist
      cut-outs.


      Julianne Moore glittered in a shimmering silver Givenchy
      gown, which trailed to the floor in a cloud of black
      feathers.


      Emily Blunt admitted her halter white Michael Kors dress with
      an intricate criss-cross bodice was "a bit soggy at the
      bottom."


      Amy Adams rocked the old-school Hollywood look in a demure
      one-shoulder Versace gown with a train, her red hair in
      flowing waves.


      Also in Versace was Jessica Chastain. Her bronze gown with a
      plunging neckline left little to the imagination.


      Hollywood's men did not disappoint, with Eddie Redmayne in a
      blue velvet tuxedo and "Birdman" star Michael Keaton rocking
      a more classic look.

      see a free-for-all now that the phenomenal "Breaking Bad" is
      no longer on the air, in the running and dominating the
      landscape. Victory for "House of Cards" for best drama series
      and "Orange is the New Black" would be sweet for Netflix as
      on-demand video streaming throws mainstream network
      television for a loop.


      00:24 GMT - Kathy waves for Charlie - Still on the red

      Story: Freak Show."


      Actress Helen Mirren walks the red carpet with a pen pinned
      to her red dress, in another show of solidarity for the
      victims of attacks in France. She is nominated for best
      actress in a musical or comedy for "The Hundred-Foot
      Journey."


      00:11 GMT - Solidarity with Charlie Hebdo - The immensely
      influentual Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein is hoping
      that tonight's awards ceremony will take a moment to voice
      solidarity with the victims of the Charlie Hebdo
      attacks.


      "I hope we can all raise glasses and that someone like Tina,
      Amy or George Clooney will urge us to toast with 300 million
      viewers around the world: "Je suis Charlie, je suis juif, je
      suis Ahmed," he writes on Variety's website.


      He also says: "Charlie Hebdo is a reminder of the beauty of
      art and the beauty of language. No one can ever defeat the
      ability of great artists to show us our world."


      23:59 GMT - Who's wearing who - AFP's Susan Stumme is keeping
      tabs on who's wearing who on the red carpet. They
      include:

      one-shoulder Versace and hair in old-school Hollywood
      waves.


      -- "Gone Girl" nominee Rosamund Pike was one of the first to
      arrive, wearing a cleavage-baring ivory Vera Wang
      outfit.


      23:50 GMT - Comediennes' swan song - It's the third time that
      "Saturday Night Live" alums Tina Fey and Amy Poehler host the
      ceremony at the Beverly Hilton hotel. It will also be the
      last.


      "We signed up to do it three times and this is the third one
      ... because that's plenty," Fey told US and Canadian TV
      critics this past week.


      On the red carpet, the duo told E! television's Ryan Seacrest
      to expect 50 costume changes "and 10 emotional
      changes."


      Poehler also hinted at the possibility of pushing the comedy
      envelope as never before. And what if they go too far? "What
      are they going to do?" she replied jokingly. "Fire us?"


      23:41 GMT - Poolside sniper - AFP's West Coast bureau chief
      Michael Thurston reports from the red carpet:


      "Security is tight, with at least one sniper position set up
      behind the swimming pool of the Beverly Hilton. It's unclear
      if there's any connection with this week's attacks in
      Paris.


      "Unusually rainy weather in recent days has turned a
      production area behind the hotel into a field of mud. Clouds
      have been hanging low over the red carpet, although
      mercifully the rain has so far held off."


      23:33 GMT - Tonight's presenters - The list of presenters is
      a veritable Who's Who of past Golden Globe winners and
      nominees. They include Amy Adams, Adrien Brody, Robert Downey
      Jr., Anna Faris, Ricky Gervais, Kevin Hart, Salma Hayek, Kate

      favorites to collect best-picture honors in the drama and
      musical or comedy categories respectively.
