Annette Bening has earned the Golden Globe for best actress in a musical or comedy, setting her up for her latest showdown at the Academy Awards, where the Hollywood veteran has never won.
Christian Bale earned the supporting-actor Globe for The Fighter.
Bening won for the lesbian-family tale The Kids Are All Right. She received the same prize at the Globes 11 years ago for American Beauty and went into Oscar night as the favorite, only to lose to Hilary Swank for Boys Don't Cry.
Swank preceded her Oscar win with the Globe for best dramatic actress, a prize expected to go to Natalie Portman for Black Swan on Sunday. That would put Bening and Portman in a likely two-woman race for best actress at the Oscars.
