Oppenheimer & Succession Win Big at Golden Globes

The Golden Globes happened last night, which is something you may know if you’re one of the incredibly shrinking population that watches them. But it was a big night for Oppenheimer and Succession, with some relatively interesting wins in other categories.

Oppenheimer finally netted Christopher Nolan, one of the most acclaimed filmmakers in history, a tiny Golden Globes statue for Best Picture and also raked in wins for Best Actor, Best Score, Best Director, and Best Supporting Actor. It was a powerful almost sweep (Emily Blunt lost to Da’Vine Joy Randolph for Best Supporting Actor) that puts it well ahead of Barbie in terms of favorite to win at the Academy Awards. Barbie did go home with some hardware, however, with wins for Best Song and the brand new award for Box Office Achievement, which means it made a lot of money.

Other “bests” in the film arena at the Golden Globes were Poor Things for Best Motion Picture, Musical or Comedy, Anatomy of a Fall for Best Non-English-Language Motion Picture, and The Boy and the Heron for Best Animated Film. Succession took a victory lap on the TV side with its final season, causing the Golden Globes to toss awards at it, and rightfully so, while FX’s hit The Bear also grabbed a few wins competing in the Musical or Comedy category.

Finally, a bit of history was made as Lily Gladstone became the first Indigenous woman to ever win Best Actress at the Golden Globes.
