2004 Golden Globes

"I'm very proud to be here," he said on the red carpet. "I'm very happy for the nomination. Mostly, it's good to see people are interested in the music and in listening to the record." Shore said he's also excited about the upcoming performance in Montreal of his two-hour composition in six parts performed by the Montreal Symphony, slated for Feb. 23. "I worked very hard with Peter Jackson and I had great collaboration in shaping the music for Lord of the Rings," he added. He noted that the friendships people made while doing the work were "exceptional." Another Canadian at the awards, Sex and City star Kim Cattrall, failed to win in her supporting actress category. Cattrall, wearing a wispy soft pink dress, stopped on the red carpet when she saw Canadian flags poking out from the crush of reporters. "It's not that I'm nervous so much -- it's just exciting," she said. "I bring my people with me where I go. The people around me are like my team." Fellow Canadian Mia Kirshner, of the newly-launched controversial cable show, the L Word, was asked if she saw herself being invited to next year's Golden Globes based on the initial success of her show. "It's the highest honour so I hope so," she said. "People are really excited about the show. It's the best job I ever had." Lorenzo Soria, president of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association which hosts the Golden Globes, said Canadians contribute greatly to film and television. "As an international event, we're very proud of Canadians -- the Australians, the Mexicans -- this is really a distinction that gives credit to whoever deserves it."
