Golden Globe Winners 2017: LA LA LAND Scores Clean Sweep

It was a big night for Damien Chazelle's "La La Land" at the 2017 Golden Globe Awards. The film made a clean sweep, winning in every category it was nominated, including Best Picture (Musical or Comedy) and Best Director. With seven trophies this is a record-breaking win as the previous films to hold the record were "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" and "Midnight Express" with six Golden Globes each. And that was in the 1970s.

In the drama category, "Moonlight" took home the award for Best Picture, but not much else despite being a frontrunner in several categories, particularly Supporting Actor, where Mahershala Ali lost to Aaron Taylor-Johnson's performance in "Nocturnal Animals". And that was about all that was surprising about the ceremony. Well, that and Meryl Streep's anti-Trump speech as she accepted her Cecil B. Demille award.

In the television categories, new series "The Crown" and "Atlanta" won big for Best Drama, and Best Comedy, respectively, while "The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story" won Best Limited Series, and "The Night Manager" took home three acting awards for Tom Hiddleston, Hugh Laurie and Olivia Colman.

2017 Golden Globe Awards Nominations Have Been Announced

The Hollywood Foreign Press Association has announced the 2017 Golden Globe Awards nominations. Unsurprisingly, "La La Land", "Moonlight" and "Manchester by the Sea" earned nods in the major categories, including Best Picture, but there were a few surprises, as well. One of them was Mel Gibson's true story war drama "Hacksaw Ridge", which scored three nominations for Best Picture, Director and Actor (Andrew Garfield).

Another surprise was the snubbing of Martin Scorsese's "Silence", which either didn't make the qualifying run, or it simply failed to convince voters in an already crowded year. But, the most pleasant surprise, at least in my opinion, is the inclusion of the crime drama "Hell or High Water" and Tom Ford's "Nocturnal Animals".

The animated features nominated this year include the highly acclaimed "Moana", "Zootopia" and "Kubo and the Two Strings".

In the television categories, the top TV shows include "Westworld", "This is Us", "Stranger Things", "Game of Thrones", "The Crown", "The Night Manager" and "The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story".

The 74th Golden Globes will be held on Sunday, January 8th on NBC. The show will be hosted by Jimmy Fallon.
