    THE race to the Oscars begins in earnest on Sunday when Hollywood's A-listers gather for the Golden Globes, with dark comedy Birdman leading the pack in the quest for awards glory.

    The film - starring onetime Batman star Michael Keaton as a washed-up film actor trying to revive his career on stage - earned seven nods for the Globes, the first major event in Tinseltown's annual awards season. Coming-of-age drama Boyhood and Nazi code-breaking thriller The Imitation Game starring Britain's Benedict Cumberbatch are also in a strong position with five nods apiece.
