The NBC broadcast of the awards show itself may be in jeopardy, with actors not wanting to cross the picket lines of striking writers, but the five Golden Globe nominees for Best Foreign Language Film will screen at the Aero and Egyptian Theatres next week, before the directors of all the nominated films convene for a special seminar at the Egyptian on Saturday, January 12. The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, Persepolis, The Kite Runner, 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days and Lust, Caution will screen January 9 through 12 at the Aero Theatre, and on Saturday, January 12 at 1 p.m. at the Egyptian Theatre, all five filmmakers will sit for a free-admission panel moderated by Screen International's Mike Goodridge.

The Aero Theatre is located at 1328 Montana Avenue in Santa Monica; the historic Egyptian Theatre is located at 6712 Hollywood Boulevard, between Highland and Las Palmas, in Hollywood. Tickets for both venues are available through Fandango, but for 24-hour recorded information on tickets, directions and each site's upcoming schedule, phone (323) 466-FILM, or visit the Cinematheque's eponymous Web site by clicking here.
