The awards season kicked into high gear this morning with the announcement of the 2019 Golden Globes nominations. The actual ceremony will take place on Sunday, January 6th hosted by Sandra Oh and Andy Samberg. As for the nominations, there are quite a few welcome surprises here, but for me I’ll go with Elsie Fisher and Constance Wu cracking the Best Actress Musical/Comedy field for their performances in Eighth Grade and Crazy Rich Asians, respectively. Gotta love that. Also good to see Spike Lee recognized for his direction on BlackKklansman. Maybe he won’t be so angry all the time now. Don’t hate me, Spike. Burning not making it into Best Foreign Language category? That’s a snub I don’t care much for.
Adam McKay’s political dramedy Vice led the way with 6 nominations, followed by The Favourite, Green Book, and A Star is Born with 5 each.
