The season of awards is upon us with 78th Golden Globes announced on Sunday evening. Nomadland, Chadwick Boseman, Borat, The Queens Gambit and The Crown won big at the virtual ceremony. The Golden Globes are accolades given by 87 members of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association to honour excellence in film and television, both American and International.

The 78th edition of the Golden Globes was already postponed from January due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. On Sunday evening, hosts Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, who are Golden Globes hosting veterans, emceed the event from the opposite coasts of the USA. Tina Fey hosted the ceremony from New York while Amy Poehler emceed from Los Angeles. While the 4-time Golden Globes hosts held the court in person at their respective locations, Hollywood celebrities made their way through the evening through technical difficulties and accepted their accolades virtually.

The Crown, The Queen’s Gambit, Schitt’s Creek wins big  

Netflix’s royal drama The Crown got crowned once again during the first big award evening in Hollywood. The fourth season of the show focused on the aspects of Princess Diana and her impact on the royal family and Britain’s relations with other countries in the world. The show won four major trophies which include Best TV drama, and best acting trophy.

Netflix’s The Queen’s Gambit, which single-handedly made chess ‘sexy’’, scored 2 major wins with a Best Limited Series and Best Actress in a Limited Series (Anya Taylor-Joy). Dramedy- Schitt’s Creek, which took home a number of Emmy’s last year for its last season, added two Golden Globes in its shelf. The show won Best Comedy Series and Best Actress in a TV Comedy Series.

Turning our heads to the film side of things, Frances McDormand starring Nomadland, which showcases the journey of a woman around the American west, won Best Motion Picture Drama and Best Director (Chloe Zhao) awards. Comedian and actor Sacha Baron Cohen had a night to remember with ‘Borat Subsequent Moviefilm’ winning the Best Motion Picture Comedy while him winning an acting trophy for the same.
