Last night’s Golden Globes ceremony was notable in areas, including style and Streep, that were completely separate from the actual films and shows that won. But we would be remiss if we didn’t acknowledge the reason the ceremony exists: to honor the achievement of artists in a world that needs them more and more.
With that in mind, let us take a look at the winners of the 74th annual Golden Globe Awards. In film, La La Land was the evening’s clearest victor, nabbing seven wins and making history by taking home more awards than any film ever made, a distinction previously held by One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest and Midnight Cowboy, which each won six. Even those who predicted wins for Damien Chazelle’s homage to Hollywood’s golden-age musicals, which has been tagged as one of the front-runners since the start of awards season, were surprised by the extent to which it came out on top. This win will only aggrandize the film’s already enormous popularity; in the hours following the show, soundtrack streams for La La Land spiked 400 percent.
The second curveball came at the end of the show when Moonlight took home the Best Picture prize in Motion Picture – Drama after going the entire ceremony without picking up a single win. Response to this second twist has been highly positive, given that Moonlight has been a critical favorite since even before awards season began; we at Paste were especially happy to see our favorite film of 2016 gaining much-deserved recognition.
