Did you catch this year’s Golden Globe Awards? If not, you’re likely to have at least seen the films that took the top honors. And the winners are…

Gladiator: Best Motion Picture – Drama

Juba: Can they hear you?
Maximus: Who?
Juba: Your family, in the afterlife?
Maximus: Oh yes.
Juba: What do you say to them?
Maximus: To my son, I tell him I will see him again soon, to keep his heels down while riding his horse. To my wife, that is not your business.

Commodus: The general who became a slave. The salve who became a gladiator. The gladiator who defied an emperor. Striking story! But now, the people want to know how the story ends. Only a famous death will do. And what could be more glorious than to challenge the Emperor himself in the great arena?
Maximus: You would fight me?
Commodus: Why not? Do you think I’m afraid?
Maximus: I think you’ve been afraid all your life.

Maximus: What we do in life echoes in eternity.

Erin Brockovich: Did they teach you how to apologize at lawyer school, ‘cause you suck at it.

Erin Brockovich: You might want to re-think those ties.

Tom Hanks in Cast Away: Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture – Drama
