BILL HEMMER, CNN ANCHOR: On this planet, "Lord of the Rings" ruled again at the Golden Globe awards. Few film fans were shocked by that.
But as Daryn Kagan reports, in Beverly Hills, the ceremony last night still offered a few surprises.
(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)
DARYN KAGAN, CNN ANCHOR (voice-over): Beverly Hills was the backdrop, but middle earth captured the main stage and the evening's biggest honor.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: And the Golden Globe goes to "Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King."
KAGAN: The "Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" grabbed four Golden Globes, including the best drama crown, setting it up as one of the favorites come Oscar night.
The evening wasn't all about the battle over Gondour (ph). There was plenty of excitement to go around.
CHARLIZE THERON, BEST ACRTRESS (DRAMA): I'm from a farm in South Africa. This is insane!
KAGAN: Charlize Theron won best dramatic actress for "Monster." Something's Gotta Give" gave Diane Keaton her first Globe since 1978, and funny man Bill Murray pick up his first Globe win for "Lost in Translation," which also won best musical or comedy.
BILL MURRAY, BEST ACTOR (COMEDY): There are so many people trying to take credit for this, I wouldn't know where to begin.
KAGAN: The third time was a charm for Peter Jackson, whose efforts as director of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy were finally rewarded.
PETER JACKSON, BEST DIRECTOR: I didn't realize that seven years on this movie would end up turning me into a hobbit.
KAGAN (on camera): The night wasn't only about the movies. Television had some battles with its own with the networks and some of the biggest small screen stars going for some gold of their own.
(voice-over): The evening belonged to HBO, which gathered seven Globes -- five for "Angels in America." Al Pacino got his fourth; Meryl Streep got her fifth.
MERYL STREEP, BEST ACTRESS (MINISERIES): To even me, it seems like I'm never leaving this stage.
KAGAN: Fox's "24" picked up a win for best television drama. And one of the evening's biggest surprises was the new BBC hit, "The Office," which won two Globes, including best musical or comedy.
(on camera): Hollywood will hardly sleep. The next big event is just hours away when Oscar nominations are announced on Tuesday morning.
In Beverly Hills, Daryn Kagan, CNN.

HEMMER: Daryn, thank you.
