The 2019 Golden Globe Nominees have been announced. What used to be the laughingstock in Hollywood, The Hollywood Foreign Press, the group who bestow the Golden Globes to the winners, today is something that Universal Pictures, especially, is hoping will help their season’s awards hopeful, Green Room, get a jump-start at the movie box office. Green Book, a current Oscar front runner, is having trouble earning money; even though it achieved a rare A+ CinemaScore (the rating given by moviegoers who are polled on opening weekend). The film earned Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor Golden Globe nominations.
Adam McKay’s Dick Cheney biopic Vice seized control of the 76th annual Golden Globe Awards with a leading six nominations, narrowly edging Bradley Cooper’s tear-jerking revival A Star Is Born, the interracial road-trip drama Green Book and the period romp The Favourite.
Vice topped all contenders in nominations announced at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, California, including best picture, comedy and best actor nominations for Christian Bale’s nearly unrecognizable performance as the former vice president. It also earned nominations for Amy Adams’ Lynne Cheney, Sam Rockwell’s George W. Bush and both the screenplay and direction by McKay, the veteran comedy filmmaker who once skewered politicians as a Saturday Night Live writer.
Ironically, if Sam Elliot, who was expected to earn a Best Supporting Actor nod for his role in A Star Is Born, did get that nomination, Vice and A Star Is Born would have tied with 6 nominations a piece.
The Hollywood Foreign Press doesn’t consider foreign-language films for best film, so Alfonso Cuaron’s acclaimed Netflix drama Roma was left out of the Globes’ top category, Best Picture. It was still nominated for best screenplay, best director and best foreign language film.
Other hopefuls, such as On The Basis of Sex and Mary Queen of Scots, were left out of the running entirely.
The 2019 Golden Globe Awards will be presented live on Sunday, January 6, 2019 at 5PM PST on NBC.
