 "Golden Globe 2014: Who won what")
Director David O Russell's con-artist caper 'American Hustle' took home the award for best comedy or musical at the 71st annual Golden Globe Awards, alongwith stars Amy Adams and Jennifer Lawrence, who walked away with prizes in the lead and supporting actress categories, respectively.
Adams won for her role as an accent-swapping con artist while Lawrence took home the evening's first award for her work as a bitter, unintentionally funny housewife.
"I don't know why I am so scared, I am sorry," Lawrence said during her speech, thanking director Russell, after saying how she admired his work.
'12 Years a Slave', a compelling and unique peek into the terrors of slavery, took home the award for best film - drama.
Directed by Steve McQueen, the film stars Chiwetel Ejiofor as Solomon Northup, a free black man in 1840s New York who, after an ill-fated trip to the South, is sold into slavery.
'Gravity's' Alfonso Cuaron was crowned best director in a tough race for his work on the outer space thriller, beating the likes of Russell, McQueen ('12 Years a Slave') and Spike Jonze ('Her').
Leonardo DiCaprio won the trophy for best actor in a musical or comedy film for his role as a hedonistic broker in 'The Wolf of Wall Street'.
The actor praised the film's director, Martin Scorsese, with whom he's worked five times, saying, "Thank you for your mentorship."
Cate Blanchett took home the award for best actress in a motion picture - drama for her role in Woody Allen's 'Blue Jasmine'.
The 44-year-old actress has two previous Golden Globes, for playing Queen Elizabeth I in 1998 Shekhar Kapur directed 'Elizabeth' and Bob Dylan in 2007's 'I'm Not There'.
Blanchett topped Sandra Bullock ('Gravity'), Judi Dench ('Philomena'), Emma Thompson ('Saving Mr Banks') and Kate Winslet ('Labor Day') for the award.
Matthew McConaughey took home the award for best actor in a motion picture - drama for 'Dallas Buyers Club' beating the likes of Chiwetel Ejiofor ('12 Years a Slave'), Idris Elba ('Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom'), Tom Hanks ('Captain Phillips') and Robert Redford ('All Is Lost').
This is McConaughey's first Globe nomination or win. He has seen a steep career surge over the past couple of years, choosing to distance himself from the fluffy rom-coms he was previously known for in favour of dramatic work like 'Buyers Club', 'Mud' and last year's 'Magic Mike'.
