BEVERLY HILLS (Reuters) - "Atonement," a World War Two romance about two lovers torn apart by a family betrayal and the conflict in Europe, and actor Daniel Day-Lewis won Golden Globe awards on Sunday in the dramatic film categories.
"Atonement" won the award for best film drama, and Day-Lewis took the honor for best actor in a dramatic movie for his role as a hardscrabble oil prospector who gains enormous wealth in "There Will Be Blood."
The Golden Globe Awards are given by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association and are a key stop on the road to Oscars, the world's top film honors, which are handed out in February by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
