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.
