With a ceremony that took place on January 7, 2024, the Golden Globes, also considered the antechamber of the Oscars, crowned the best cinematographic releases of the year 2023.
What we will remember from the year 2023, in cinematographic terms, is above all the “Barbenheimer” phenomenon in July or perhaps the filmed concerts of Taylor Swift and Beyonce this fall. Two events that the Golden Globes recognize: Barbie received 10 nominations, including 3 in the “best original song” category (a title he ultimately won thanks to Billie Eillish ‘s song , “What Was I Made For”). The screenplay by Greta Gerwig and Noah Baumbach was also nominated. It was then closely followed by Oppenheimer by Christopher Nolan , who received 8 nominations and was crowned best film that night. Killers of the Flower Moon was right on their heels with 7 nominations, followed by Poor Creatures, which will be released on January 17, 2024, in France, with 6 nominations. Taylor Swift was nominated with her film The Eras Tour in the “best box office success” category. A prize that ultimately went to Greta Gerwig’s Barbie.
Early in 1944, at an informal ceremony held at 20th Century Fox, the Hollywood Foreign Correspondents Association—the forerunner of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association of today—presented its first awards for noteworthy achievements in the film industry. There, Paul Lukas received Best Actor for Watch on the Rhine, while Jennifer Jones won Best Actress for The Song of Bernadette, which also won Best Film. Scrolls were used to deliver the awards.
Today, the Golden Globes recognize achievements in 27 categories; 14 in motion pictures and 13 in television. January 07, 2024, marked the 81st Golden Globe Awards.
