Scorsese won the best director award, while Forest Whitaker and Helen Mirren won the top actor awards for their performances in The Last King of Scotland and The Queen, respectively. Little Miss Sunshine won for best acting ensemble. Meanwhile, Alejandro Gonzalez Iñarritu's Babel has emerged as the favorite to pick up the best picture award at tonight's Golden Globes ceremony.
