The Golden Globes are in and they were undoubtedly a different experience than the Critic’s Choice Awards last week. So far, the Oscar race points to a small handful of films with very little room for variety, but there were some surprises last night worth discussing. The most interesting content was actually behind the scenes, where more than a few stars made their anger about. the current political climate very apparent. There was also a strange moment with Leonardo DiCaprio, but instead of focusing on gossip – let’s talk about who won what.
Strangely, One Battle After Another was entered into the Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy category, which it actually won. The film definitely had funny moments but didn’t necessarily seem like a comedy, although other entries in this category did also not fit the general definition of the genre. ‘OBAA’ additionally brought home the Best Director – Motion Picture and Best Screenplay – Motion Picture titles for Paul Thomas Anderson. The film also won Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Supporting Role in any Motion Picture for Teyana Taylor’s performance.
