Are we underestimating Jamie Dornan at the Golden Globes? He stars in “Wild Mountain Thyme” as the heir to an Irish farm whose father (Christopher Walken) threatens to hand the land to his American cousin instead of to him. Dornan is also the object of affection for a lovelorn neighbor (Emily Blunt). This wouldn’t be the first time the Globes embraced a warm romantic comedy.

It’s been a while since an actor in a straight-up rom-com has won Best Film Comedy/Musical Actor at the Globes. You have to go back to the 1990s with victors like Hugh Grant (1994’s “Four Weddings and a Funeral”), Tom Cruise (1996’s “Jerry Maguire”) and Jack Nicholson (1997’s “As Good as It Gets”), though romantic leading men have since won in a couple of musicals.
But other rom-com...
