Heath Ledger has landed himself a Best Supporting Actor kudo at the 66th Annual Golden Globe Awards on Sunday, January 11. Announced by Demi Moore, the late actor received more than the statuette as those attending the ceremony at the The Beverly Hilton gave him a standing ovation upon the announcement.

Besting over other strong competitors, Tom Cruise, Robert Downey Jr., Ralph Fiennes and Philip Seymour Hoffman, Ledger earned the title for his portrayal of Joker in "The Dark Knight". Hence, "Dark Knight" director Christopher Nolan received the kudo on behalf of the late actor. On the acceptance speech, he said of Ledger, "He would be eternally missed, but he'll never be forgotten."

Beside Ledger, Sally Hawkins of "Happy-Go-Lucky" has won the Best Actress in Comedy or Musical. "Wall-E" and "Waltz with Bashir", in addition, have been dubbed Best Animated Picture and Best Foreign Language Film respectively.
