Who would have thought we'd be watching Sandra Bullock win the Best Actress in a Drama prize at the Golden Globes, after being the queen of romantic comedies for too many years to count and the cute girl in Speed. But tonight, the not-so-young anymore, former America's Sweetheart, won top honor at the awards show for her role in The Blind Side, in which she plays the evangelical Leigh Anne Tuohy who recruits and takes under her wing a homeless, traumatized young boy who becomes a first-round NFL draft pick because of her nurturing.

Avatar, not surprisingly, took home the prize for Best Motion Picture and the film's director James Cameron won for Best Director. The blockbuster is already one its way to beat Cameron's previous box office record with Titanic and is a favorite to win big at the Oscars.

The film with the $400 million budget, that took more than a decade in computer technology development and studio wrangling to make it to the big screen, is about a paraplegic marine dispatched to the moon Pandora on a unique mission and who becomes torn between following his orders and protecting the world he feels is his home.

Other big prizes of the night went to Robert Downey, Jr. for the title role in Sherlock Holmes, directed by Guy Ritchie.

Up in the Air won Best Motion Picture Screenplay for Jason Reitman and Sheldon Turner. The George Clooney-led film is a favorite Academy Award contender.

Best Comedy went to The Hangover and Best Comedy or Musical TV Series went to newcomer Glee.
