LOS ANGELES, California (X17online) - Indian drama Slumdog Millionaire swept the 66th Annual Golden Globe Awards tonight, picking up Best Motion Picture Drama, Best Director for the film's Danny Boyle, Best Screenplay, and Best Original Score.

The film recently picked up five Critics' Choice Awards, including that prize for best picture.

Tina Fey's 30 Rock won three awards - Best Television Series Comedy, Best TV Actress for its creator, Fey, and Best Actor for Alec Baldwin.

The show about a show within a show has been a critical success since its debut three seasons ago but started pulling in higher audience numbers with guest appearances like those by Jennifer Aniston, Oprah Winfrey, and Salma Hayek and then when Fey went back to her launching pad for fame, Saturday Night Live, to imitate Republican vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin, in turn bringing attention to her own show at the same time.
