Last night marked the first big awards ceremony of 2019: the 76th annual Golden Globe Awards. Often regarded as “that other awards show”, it none the less is a ceremony that millions tune in to view. As with most years there were oddly times jokes, hosts who constantly were toeing an invisible line, drunk celebrities and a run time that lasted for eons. It was also kind of fun. Mostly in the sense that, more than recent years, there were a lot of upsets.
You’re sure to see a lot written in the next few days about what certain wins by mean. Mostly concerning Green Book or Bohemian Rhapsody and their chances of sweeping the Oscars. Disregard most of it. The Golden Globes haven’t been an exact barometer when it comes to predicting other awards shows. At least for the last couple of years. What this ends up being is a rather weird, albeit somewhat fun time waster. Plus, lots of people tune in just to see what some stars are wearing. There’s something for everything.
Anyways, here’s the fill list of winners, beginning with the film categories:
