SOLEDAD O'BRIEN, CNN ANCHOR: The award season gets under way in earnest on Sunday night and Hollywood's A list is gearing up to go for the gold.
Daryn Kagan has the sneak peek at the Golden Globes.
(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)
DARYN KAGAN, CNN CORRESPONDENT (voice-over): It's the night when all the stars collide, honoring the best from the big and small screen in what makes the Golden Globe one of the favorite gatherings for fans and celebrities alike.
Many expect the final chapter in the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy to be the picture to beat in a field that is crowded with epic sized contenders. The civil war drama "Cold Mountain" earned eight nominations, more than any other film.
But one thing is for sure, at the Globes, expect the unexpected. The critically acclaimed drama "Mystic River" could be the dark horse for best picture.
TOM CRUISE, ACTOR: Well I don't make movies for awards, you know, it's -- that's always kind of the icing on the cake.
KAGAN: With three Globes already to his credit, the "Last Samurai's" Tom Cruise heads a stellar cast of leading male nominees. "Mystic River's" leading man, Sean Penn, is one of those. The 43- year-old actor and director has four Globe nominations in the last 10 years, but is still without a win.
For best actress, the field is full of possibilities.
CHARLIZE THERON, ACTRESS: I feel so blessed just in how people have been responding to this.
KAGAN: "Monster" leading lady Charlize Theron will get her first chance at a win. To do that, she'll have to get past a bevy of past winners such as Nicole Kidman, Cate Blanchett and Uma Thurman.
HBO tops the TV field with 20 nominations, most of which went to the cable giant's miniseries "Angels in America" and the acclaimed "Sex and the City."
KIM CATTRALL, ACTRESS: It turned out to be such an amazing gift this year because we are all nominated. KAGAN: But don't count out the rest of the network, there's plenty of star power to go around. And with the Golden Globes, Hollywood's frantic pace awards season officially begins, a time that can even leave celebrities seeing stars.
Daryn Kagan, CNN, Los Angeles.
(END VIDEOTAPE)
O'BRIEN: Daryn is going to be live from the red carpet at the Golden Globes on Sunday night.
