Daniel Day Lewis Wins Golden Globe for 'There will be Blood' Performance in a Motion Picture (Drama) for his role in ‘There Will Be Blood’.
Day Lewis has strong Irish ties being an Irish resident with a house in Co. Wicklow.
Following the cancellation of the gala ceremony due to the WGA strike, the winners were announced at a low key press conference in Los Angeles last night.
Other Irish nominees; Jonathan Rhys Meyers, Saoirse Ronan and James Nesbitt; failed to pick up the top honours losing out to Jon Hamm (Mad Men), Cate Blanchett (I’m Not There) and Jim Broadbent (Longford) respectively.
