All-American flicks blanked

The Hollywood Foreign Press Association lived up to its name by snubbing three very American stories: Angelina Jolie’s World War II epic, “American Sniper” and “Interstellar.”

Then again, what do you expect from 100 foreign journalists with a penchant for gift bags?

Jolie’s “Unbroken” was completely shut out of the Globes nominations. The association’s membership is usually swayed by star power, but Jolie’s film about an American soldier enduring torture at a Japanese POW camp — an interesting take given this week’s release of a Senate report detailing what America has done to its enemy prisoners — apparently wasn’t enough.

Director Clint Eastwood’s “American Sniper,” about late Navy SEAL Chris Kyle, also didn’t click with the voters. The film and its star, Bradley Cooper, came up empty-handed.

And the only nomination for “Interstellar,” which details an American-led effort to save Earth, was for Hans Zimmer’s score — voters said, “Houston, we have a problem” with lead actors Matthew McConaughey and Anne Hathaway, and director Christopher Nolan.

Other snubs included “The Gambler,” “The Fault in Our Stars” and “Wild,” directed by Jean-Marc Vallée (“Dallas Buyers Club”). Only Reese Witherspoon got a nomination.

Ben Affleck and Channing Tatum failed to get acting nominations, though their films — “Gone Girl” and “Foxcatcher,” respectively — were recognized in several categories. Also missing in action: “A Most Violent Year.” Director J.C. Chandor’s New York-set drama earned only one spot, for Jessica Chastain in the supporting actress category.
