The 2019 Golden Globes are complete, and it was averyinteresting night.Vicelead the movie pack going into the evening with six nominations in total, but it only came away with one win: Best Actor forChristian Bale. And heavy awards season favoriteA Star Is Bornshockingly only notched one win, Best Original Song for “Shallow.”
So what did win? Well the biggest surprise of the night wasBohemian Rhapsodytaking Best Motion Picture - Drama over heavy favoriteA Star Is Born. The Freddie Mercury biopic is a bona fide box office hit, but has been slammed with accusations of playing very loose with the facts re: Mercury’s story and mixed reviews (it stands at 48% with Top Critics on Rotten Tomatoes). And yet, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association went gaga for it, not only giving the film Best Picture but alsoRami MalekBest Actor overBradley Cooper.
On that note, it was not a great night forA Star Is Born. WhileLady Gaga’s main awards season competitionOlivia Colmanwon Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy forThe Favourite, Gaga was expected to walk with the Drama award. Not so, asGlenn Closeinstead took home the trophy for her passion projectThe Wife, announcing herself as a serious contender for the Oscar. Best Director, meanwhile, went toAlfonso CuaronforRoma, which also won Best Foreign Language Film.
In the Musical or Comedy category,Green Book—another awards season contender that has been suffering froma fair amount of criticism—took three awards including Best Motion Picture - Musical or Comedy, Best Screenplay, and Best Supporting Actor forMahershala Ali.
In terms of what this all means for the Oscars, there’s zero overlap between those who vote on Golden Globes and those who vote on the Oscars, but the perception and visibility of the Globes can potentially have an impact on how the Oscars vote. Indeed, nominations voting for the Oscars opens on January 7th, the day after the Globes ceremony, and memorable speeches certainly can’t hurt a film or performer’s chances (see: Glenn Close). As forBohemian RhapsodyandGreen Book, and the near shut-out ofA Star Is Born, stay tuned for my thoughts in a special edition of Oscar Beat posting on Monday.
On the TV side of things, at leastThe Americansgot a well-deserved Best Drama Series award, and the Globes continued their streak of awarding new series in the Best Comedy Series category by handing the trophy to the new Netflix sitcomThe Kominsky Method.
