Chloé Zhao became only the second woman to win the Globes’ Best Director award, following Barbra Streisand, who first won it in 1984. She soon followed that win with a Best Picture, Drama win for her film “Nomadland.” “Borat Subsequent Moviefilm” won Best Picture in the Musical or Comedy category, with star Sacha Baron Cohen also winning Best Actor. Lee Isaac Chung’s lauded drama “Minari” took home the award for Best Foreign Language Film. Other acting wins went to Andra Day for Best Actress in a Drama for “The United States vs. Billie Holiday” and Daniel Kaluuya for his supporting turn in “Judas and the Black Messiah,” along with a posthumous win for Best Actor in a Drama to Chadwick Boseman for “Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom.” Rosamund Pike offered something of a surprise: she won Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy for “I Care a Lot,” which only recently hit Netflix after premiering at TIFF.
Netflix hit “The Crown” continued to prove its worth at the show, winning Best TV Drama and both Best Actor and Actress in a TV Drama for stars Josh O’Connor and Emma Corrin, along with a Best Supporting Actress win for Gillian Anderson. “The Queen’s Gambit” picked up Best Limited Series, along with a Best Actress win for star Anya Taylor-Joy, while the final season of “Schitt’s Creek” won Best Comedy. Norman Lear and Jane Fonda were both recognized with the organization’s version of lifetime achievement awards: the Carol Burnett Award and the Cecil B. DeMille Award, respectively. As always, nominees and winners for the Golden Globes are decided upon by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA), which is made up of approximately 90 journalists from around the world. The group has recently come under fire for “potential ethical conflicts and instances of self-dealing from among members of the organization,” along with renewed questions about the diversity of its membership. Those issues were seemingly top of mind at the show, including an early segment in which some its members vowed to do better when it comes to diversifying its ranks. The 2021 Golden Globes were hosted by Tina Fey and Amy Poehler on Sunday, February 28. Both hosts broadcast live from different coasts: Fey was on hand in the Rainbow Room of Rockefeller Center in New York, while Poehler was at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California (where the Globes are typically held). Tonight’s ceremony marked the first time in Golden Globes history that the show aired from multiple locations.
