Aron Ralston, the hiker who was trapped beneath a boulder for 127 Hours, discovered a completely different atmosphere at the Golden Globes.

"If only there had been hoards of screaming women cheering me on," he said of his desperate experience in a desolate Utah canyon that resulted in his cutting off his right arm to save his life.

Ralston, whose real-life story earned three nominations, proclaimed it "the best movie that's ever been made."

"They get the Aron Ralston award if nothing else," he quipped on the carpet.
