The Golden Globes favored those behind the scenes of ''American Beauty'' at the awards ceremony Sunday night, but not the actors. The film led the pack with three trophies, for Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Screenplay, but Kevin Spacey and Annette Bening went home unrewarded. On the TV end, the broadcast networks were the big loser, since cable won every TV award except for Michael J. Fox's Best Actor in a Comedy Series nab for ABC's ''Spin City.'' Also, Globe voters made up for past Emmy wrongs, giving ''The Sopranos'' four trophies, including Best TV Series (Drama), and Best Actor for James Gandolfini. Now THAT'S Mob justice.
