..you won't win the Oscar. I was right about this when people were speculating what if Jack Nicholson wins the Oscar, and I said its too late he already won the Golden Globe. So anyone care to do some research and prove me wrong? Has anyone ever won a Golden Globe and an Oscar?

Jack Nicholson and Helen Hunt won both for As Good As It Gets.

Actually it has been said for years that the Golden Globes usually predict the Oscar winners.

conscience

plenty of people and films have awards from both associations.

The Golden Globes are picked by about 88 foreign journalist - 88 people who can be very hard to identify.

The Oscars are picked by a group of several thousand people, from every field of the industry, actors, producers, technical people - and with some grunt work you could easily figure out a good portion of the list.

Any patterns of winning baldy or not, would seem to be coincidental.

The problem with the Best Actor/Actress Golden Globes is that they divide the categories into both Drama and Musical/Comedy.
So you have two Best Actor/Actress winners and only one Oscar for Each category. There is only one category for suporting actor and actress

THis year

Best Actor:
GG: Jack NIcholson9drama), Richard Gere(mus/com)
Oscar: Adrien Brody

Best Actress:
GG: Nicole Kidman(drama), Renee Zellweger(mus/com)
Oscar: Nicole Kidman


Supporting Actress
gg: Streep
Oscar: Latifah...no...er...ah....Zeta-jones....yeah...that's the ticket

Supporting Actor
GG & Oscar: Cooper

Hope that helps

BCD is right. The two divisions of GG make it impossible to compare.

Forgot to mention that the best picture categories are divided as well. I think that it can be a good barometer to forecast the Oscars but how often are forecasters right

Same movie, but it was C. Zeta-Jones, not Queen Latifah
