The Social Network grabbed four awards including best picture at the Golden Globes on Sunday, trouncing top-tipped British drama The King's Speech which garnered only one award.

In what is traditionally seen as a pointer to the Oscars next month, the movie about Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg won best director for David Fincher as well as best screenplay and best score.

While the blockbuster movie won in four of the six categories it was nominated for, The King's Speech - which had been nominated for seven awards - walked away with only one, best actor for Colin Firth.

The best actress award went to Natalie Portman for her performance in the ballet-themed dance drama Black Swan, on the set of which she met her husband-to-be Benjamin Millepie, with whom she is expecting a baby.

However, the night belonged to the Facebook movie, whose producer Scott Rudin hailed the film's "brilliant, brilliant script" and those who worked on it. He also thanked the Facebook founder.

"I want to thank everybody at Facebook - Mark Zuckerberg - for his willingness to allow us to use his life and work as a metaphor through which to tell a story about communication and the way we relate to each other," he said.

Other winners at the three-hour show included The Kids are Alright, about a lesbian couple bringing up two children when the biological father turns up, which won two awards including best supporting actress for Annette Bening.

Boxing movie The Fighter, which had also been nominated in six categories, won a respectable two, for British actor Christian Bale and US actress Melissa Leo as best supporting actor and actress in the film.

Best-animated feature film - an increasingly high-profile category in recent years, as cutting technology produces ever more eye-popping blockbusters - went to Toy Story 3.

Veteran actor Robert De Niro meanwhile was given a lifetime achievement award for his roles in iconic movies including Taxi Driver and The Godfather: Part II.

De Niro said he was pleased to have been chosen "well before you had a chance to review Little Fockers", his latest, slightly less legendary movie.

"It's okay, we all have our jobs to do," he joked.

Of his great films over the years, he added: "These movies are like my children, except my children are more expensive and cannot be made into 3D to push up your grosses."

But sharing disappointment with The King's Speech were Inception, tipped for four awards, but which left empty-handed, and 127 Hours, Danny Boyle's movie about a real life adventurer cutting off his own arm.

The King's Speech had been the surprise top nominee when the Globes short lists were announced last month, having only just opened in the United States and taken a tiny fraction of the box office earnings of The Social Network. Some had suggested this was a wily move by the Weinstein Company, which let it slowly impress critics and audiences rather than trying for a blockbuster, head-on approach to seeking Oscar glory and fortune.

One film's inclusion in the short list triggered smirks around Hollywood.

The Tourist, starring Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp, was critically panned but won a surprise nomination in the comedy or musical category, in what gossips suggested was a blatant bid to gets its A-list stars to attend on Sunday.
