New York, NY (Top40 Charts) The 77th annual Golden
Globe Awards were a slightly more staid affair than usual. Sure, despite host Ricky Gervais's requests that winners not give political speeches, lots and lots of the speeches were political in nature, and yeah, plenty of people (from Gervais to award winner
Joaquin Phoenix) tossed out bleeped curse words. The ceremony saw 1917 win Best picture and
Joaquin Phoenix win Best actor for Joker.
Best picture went to 1917, while Renée Zellweger won Best actress for Judy, and
Joaquin Phoenix beat out Adam Driver and Christian Bale to win Best actor for Joker. Phoenix's winner's speech may not have pleased everyone, but it was certainly memorable, covering climate change issues and a plea for celebrities to use their private jets less often.
Russell Crowe picked up a Best acting award but couldn't attend the ceremony because he's in Australia battling the bushfire devastation.
Olivia Colman took Best actress in a drama series for The Crown, and
Laura Dern helped Marriage Story take its only win with a supporting actress award. Succession took two awards overall, as did Chernobyl and Phoebe Waller-Bridge's Fleabag. Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon a Time in Hollywood won Best picture (comedy/musical) and Best screenplay.
Notably, Game of Thrones' only nomination came for Kit Harington in the Best actor in a drama TV series category (no, he didn't win).
