In his first, exclusive reaction Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger congratulates his fellow Austrians to their achievement at the 67th Golden Globe Awards. Schwarzenegger himself won a Golden Globe in 1977 for Best Male Acting Debut in the Motion Picture “Stay Hungry”. In 1995 he was nominated as Best Male Actor for his comedy “Junior”. Barbara Gasser met Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger earlier this week at Van Nuys Middle School where the Governor, First Lady Maria Shriver and three of their children were painting the school. On this occasion he shared the following thoughts with our correspondent:

“I am very proud that my countrymen from Austria won again the Golden Globe. I am proud to see that Austrians are coming on strong in the film business! I also thought the acceptance speech of Christoph Waltz was humble. I could not help laughing to myself because I was not the only Austrian on stage at the Golden Globe Show talking with a distinctive German accent. I wish my Austrian fellows good luck for the rest of the Award season!”

Herzlichen Glückwunsch to the 2010 Golden Globe Winners: Viennese Christoph Waltz for Inglorious Basterds, Austrian Michael Haneke for The White Ribbon and Half-German Sandra Bullock, who spoke German to her German family in the acceptance speech, for The Blind Side (P.S. English Translation to what she said in German: You can go to bed now, but brush your teeth!). Styrian Austrian Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger held the laudatio for Avatar and living legend and honorary president of the Viennese film museum received the Cecil B. DeMille award presented by legend in the making with German roots Leonardo DiCaprio.

Read Arnold Schwarzenegger’s exclusive comment about fellow Austrians at the Golden Globe.

Guter Beitrag über Inglorious Basterds. Col. Hans Landa: “Warum? Weil ich weiss zu welchen enormen Taten der Mensch fähig ist, sobald er seine Würde abgelegt hat.” “Because I know what humans are capable of, once they abandoned their dignity.”

The Golden Globe winning movie, set in a Northern German village before World War I during the decline of the Austro-Hungarian empire, depicts the emergence of national socialism. Watch the Trailer
