TAGGED AS: Awards, golden globes, movies, TV
Next Week, the Golden Globes will release their annual nominations, and the once-beleaguered Association appears to be right back where it was before the turbulence of the past few years. The ceremony is no longer on NBC, but it continues to draw impressive numbers on CBS. This year looks to be the moment in which the Golden Globes officially return to their former glory, and much of the town is rejoicing.
As we approach the season and move past the warmup lap of the early awards stretch, with the New York Film Critics Circle, the British Independent Film Awards, the Los Angeles Film Critics Association Awards, the National Board of Review winners AFI, and the Critics’ Choice nominations all published, discussed, and debated. The current race is poised for the Golden Globes to separate the contenders from the pretenders.
In addition to their standard categories, the Globes have been steadily adding new ones over the past few years. We will keep our focus on the major film and television categories. There, we find Paul Thomas Anderson’s One Battle Battle After Another is currently positioned safely as the perennial favorite.
This season, the Revolutionary father-daughter misadventure has already taken the top prize at the National Board of Review, the Gotham Awards, the New York Film Critics Circle, and many expect it to triumph at the Los Angeles Film Critics Circle as well this weekend.
With such a run, there appears to be nothing standing in Paul Thomas Anderson’s path toward achieving his first Oscar win after nine nominations. Elsewhere, we are intrigued to see which names will emerge in the Golden Globe-specific comedy categories. This year, performers by Channing Tatum, Hugh Jackman, Josh O’Connell, and Daniel Craig will look to see whether they can find recognition for roles many suspect unlikely to make it to Oscar night. Television favorites like Severance, The White Lotus, and other prestige series look to continue their early success or, in some cases, perhaps get the long-awaited return to form after previous Emmy disappointment.
Tastemakers, mixers, and industry events in Hollywood this year have unfolded with unusual momentum, and folks are showing up to shake hands, grab selfies, and answer the questions that could garner votes. Many agree that this year, more than any other in recent memory, boasts a group of nominees and hopefuls pushing harder than ever for end-of-year honors. That, coupled with many races being wide open, has led to several unexpected contenders campaigning intensely, adopting what many would describe as a back-to-basics political campaign approach. This tried-and-true method is something that many established names, especially those approaching their second nominations, do not always consider necessary. And even this year, there have been notable absences from the campaign cycle, the most prominent being Marty Supreme Timothy Chalamet, who skipped the Governor’s Awards, Actors on Actors, and many other key stops on the ‘awards tour’ for more unorthodox approaches to promotion.
We will have to see if that strategy works out for him, but trust we will be there every step of the way, breaking down all the highs and lows, wins, snubs, and surprises on the way. Bookmark this page and find out when the Golden Globe nominations are announced on Monday, December 8.
