Last night the 77th annual Golden Globe Awards concluded with the usual mix of comedic highlights, emotional speeches, and upset surprises that audiences have come to expect from awards season. The ceremony was emceed by veteran host Ricky Gervais at the Beverly Hilton Hotel.
Succession and Fleabag won Best Television Series, for Drama and Musical or Comedy, respectively, while Chernobyl won Best Television Limited Series or Motion Picture Made for Television.
Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood, which NYFA guest speaker Nathan Kelly served as unit production manager on, won Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy. One of the biggest upsets of the evening were the wins for Best Director and Best Motion Picture – Drama by 1917, the single-take World War I epic by Sam Mendes that was barely on the radar for most awards season predictions.
Two titans of the industry received lifetime achievement awards as well. Ellen DeGeneres was introduced by Kate McKinnon and presented with the second ever Carol Burnett Award, which is given for ”outstanding contributions to the television medium on or off the screen.”
The Carol Burnett Award is the television equivalent of the Globes’ more established Cecil B. DeMille Award, which was presented this year to Tom Hanks, who gave an emotional acceptance speech in front of his family and award presenter Charlize Theron, who Hanks had given one of her very first films roles to at the start of her career.
Other highlights included a Best Actor win for Joaquin Phoenix, making him the second performer to win a Golden Globe for playing Batman supervillain Joker. Heath Ledger had previously won for portraying the criminal mastermind before going on to win a posthumous Oscar as well.
Awkwafina also made history by becoming the first performer of Asian descent to win in a lead actress film category. Another standout moment included Parasite director Bong Joon Ho’s speech when accepting the award for Best Foreign Film. The Korean filmmaker implored audiences to be more accepting of foreign language films, saying through a translator, “Once you overcome the one-inch tall barrier of subtitles, you will be introduced to so many more amazing films.”
New York Film Academy congratulates all of this years nominees and the winners of the 77th annual Golden Globe Awards and looks forward to following the rest of the 2020 awards season!
