Hold on to the list of the 82 Golden Globes Award winners given out in LA Sunday, Jan. 5, 2025. They may predict some of the 97th Academy Award winners.
Known as the Oscars, nominations will be announced, Jan. 17, 2025. Hosted by Conan O’Brien, the 2025 Academy Awards air Sunday, March 2, 2025 on ABC at 7 p.m. ET and will stream live on Hulu. But we may have gotten a preview of some movie winners if the Golden Globe winners are any indication.
Emilia Pérez, a 2024 Spanish-language French musical crime comedy, should definitely be among the films nominated for this year’s Oscars. Named one of the top 10 films of 2024 by the American Film Institute, it was selected as the French entry for Best International Feature Film for the 97th Academy Awards.
At the Golden Globes, held at the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles, Sunday, it had ten nominations and racked up four wins including Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy and Best Foreign Language Film.
When accepting her awards, its star, Karla Sofía Gascón, said, “I am who I am.” Gascón made history as the first transgender woman to be nominated for Best Actress in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy at the Golden Globes.
Written and directed by Jacques Audiard, Emilia Pérez, is based on Audiard’s opera libretto of the same name. It was adapted from Boris Razon’s 2018 novel Écoute. The film premiered May 18, 2024 at the 77th Cannes Film Festival, and then won the Jury Prize in the Palme d’Or. Its female ensemble collectively won the Best Actress award.
But among the big questions at the Golden Globes, Sunday was what was host Nikki Glaser going to come out in next. She looked stunning in all her many gown changes.
However, the thing to remember about Sunday’s awards is that they are for film and television. So, along with Emilia Pérez and The Brutalist, for movies, Shōgun and Hacks took top honors in their respective TV categories.
