The nominations for the 80th Annual Golden Globes were announced yesterday in California. The winners will be announced on January 11, 2023.
The ceremony will be the first televised Golden Globes in two years following a boycott of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA) which saw NBC deciding to not air the awards. The protest was due to the organisation’s failure to diversify its voting membership.
Now for the first time, a 52 per cent female and 51.8 per cent racially and ethnically diverse electorate helped narrow down the best film and television had to offer.
Snubs and Surprises
Banshees of Inisherin led the nominations by featuring in eight categories including Best Musical or Comedy and acting nominations for Colin Farrell, Brendan Gleeson and Kerry Condon.
The film’s director, Martin McDonagh, also received a directing acknowledgement among four other men, with no female directors in the category. There are also no women filmmakers in the best picture categories.
Darren Aronofsky failed to appeal to voters with The Whale a polarising film about an obese father trying to reconnect with his estranged daughter. However, star Brendan Fraser secured a nomination for Best Actor in a Drama.
Fan favourite Stephenie Hsu (Everything, Everywhere, All At Once) was noticeably absent from the Best Supporting Actress category despite her co-star Jamie Lee Curtis being acknowledged in the category.
The television categories are diverse in subject with no outright leader for nominations. However, NBC’s workplace comedy Abbott Elementary did receive five nominations prompting fans on Twitter to claim it was a return to the glory days of network television.
