Julianne Moore stopped briefly on the red carpet ahead of the Golden Globes to talk about playing Sarah Palin in "Game Change," the HBO film chronicling John McCain's 2008 presidential campaign.
"I had a tremendous amount of trepidation," she said. "When you're doing something on someone so well known in the news, it's a big hurdle to get over. But we worked really hard and and did a lot of research to be as accurate as possible."
Moore's performance as the failed vice presidential candidate earned her a nomination for Best Actress in a Miniseries or TV Movie. She's up against Nicole Kidman, "Hemingway & Gellhorn"; Jessica Lange, "American Horror Story: Asylum"; Sienna Miller, "The Girl"; and Sigourney Weaver, "Political Animals."
A gallery of the awards -- and HuffPost's liveblog of the proceedings -- can be found below.
It was a big night for "Girls," "Homeland," "Argo," Ben Affleck, "Les Miserables," Tina Fey, Amy Poehler and Jodie Foster.

More on Jodie Foster's big night at the Golden Globes:
After being introduced by Robert Downey Jr., Foster coyly said, "While I’m here being all confessional, I just have the sudden urge to say something I’ve never been able to air in public. A declaration that I’m a little nervous about. Not quite as nervous as my publicist, huh, Jennifer? But uh, you know, I’m just going to put it out there. Loud and proud. I’m going to need your support. I am -- single!"

| @ Breznican : Most interesting theory heard at Globes: Argo gets Best Picture Oscar as rest of Academy overcompensates for directors' Affleck snub. |
| @ AmyKinLA : Affleck just WON'T say he's upset about the Oscar snub. Says he's a member of the Academy & so are the filmmakers he admires. #GoldenGlobes |
Remember when Jennifer Lawrence said "I beat Meryl" and everyone thought she was slamming Meryl Streep and not referencing "First Wives Club."
Some stars didn't make the best-dressed list. From HuffPost Style:
The 2013 Golden Globes took place on Sunday night in Los Angeles, and true to form, brought out the very best in fashion and style. As it happens, they also brought out the worst in red carpet dresses, from misplaced cutouts to heavy fabric to frocks that don't belong at a prestigious awards ceremony.
From the red carpet, some of the Golden Globes best-dressed celebrities. Via HuffPost Style.
The 2013 Golden Globes had us jumping for joy. Not because some of our favorite TV shows and movies won (yay, "Homeland"), but because actresses took style chances on the red carpet this year, making for an interesting awards show (and an amazing best-dressed list).

| @ EDouglasWW : So if Argo wins the GG, is it still in the game for Best Picture at Oscars or is it another movie to end its run on GG night? |
"Les Miserables" beat "Silver Linings Playbook," an upset, of sorts, considering the power Harvey Weinstein usually has at the Golden Globes. More on the "Les Mis" win here.
