Guillermo del Toro香蕉视频直播檚 Cold War-era, Canadian-shot fairytale 香蕉视频直播淭he Shape of Water香蕉视频直播� swam away with a leading seven Golden Globe nominations Monday, while the Canadian-directed HBO drama 香蕉视频直播淏ig Little Lies香蕉视频直播� led the television categories with six nods.
In what香蕉视频直播檚 been seen as a wide-open Oscar race so far, several films followed closely behind 香蕉视频直播淭he Shape of Water,香蕉视频直播� including Steven Spielberg香蕉视频直播檚 Pentagon Papers drama 香蕉视频直播淭he Post,香蕉视频直播� with six nominations, including best actress for Meryl Streep and best actor for Tom Hanks. Martin McDonagh香蕉视频直播檚 revenge drama 香蕉视频直播淭hree Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri香蕉视频直播� also got a major boost in the nominations announced Monday in Beverly Hills, California, with six nods, including best actress for Frances McDormand and supporting actor for Sam Rockwell.
But as the most prominent platform yet in Hollywood香蕉视频直播檚 awards season to confront the post-Harvey Weinstein landscape, the Globes also enthusiastically supported Ridley Scott香蕉视频直播檚 J. Paul Getty drama 香蕉视频直播淎ll the Money in the World.香蕉视频直播� Acclaimed Canadian actor Christopher Plummer, who replaced Kevin Spacey in the film just last month, was nominated for best supporting actor. Scott was also nominated for best director and Michelle Williams for best actress.
A rough cut of the film was screened for the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, which puts on the Globes. Scott is quickly reediting the movie to eradicate Spacey, who has been accused of sexual misconduct by numerous men.
The nominees for best picture drama are: the tender young romance 香蕉视频直播淐all Me By Your Name,香蕉视频直播� Christopher Nolan香蕉视频直播檚 World War II epic 香蕉视频直播淒unkirk,香蕉视频直播� 香蕉视频直播漈he Post,香蕉视频直播� 香蕉视频直播漈he Shape of Water香蕉视频直播� and 香蕉视频直播淭hree Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri.香蕉视频直播�

Despite considerable backlash, 香蕉视频直播淕et Out香蕉视频直播� ended up on the comedy side of the Globes. It was submitted that way by Universal Pictures. Peele himself slyly commented on the controversy, calling his social critique of latent racism 香蕉视频直播渁 documentary.香蕉视频直播� Though the Globes passed over Peele香蕉视频直播檚 script, newcomer Daniel Kaluuya was nominated for best actor in a comedy.
Though some predicted and feared an acting field lacking diversity, the nominees were fairly inclusive. Denzel Washington (香蕉视频直播淩oman J. Israel, Esq.香蕉视频直播�), Mary J. Blige (香蕉视频直播淢udbound香蕉视频直播�), Hong Chau (香蕉视频直播淒ownsizing香蕉视频直播�) and Octavia Spencer (香蕉视频直播淭he Shape of Water香蕉视频直播�) were among the 30 film acting nominees.
In the television categories, the Emmy-winning 香蕉视频直播淏ig Little Lies,香蕉视频直播� which is directed by Montreal香蕉视频直播檚 Jean-Marc Vallee, earned a number of acting nods (Nicole Kidman, Reese Witherspoon, Shailene Woodley, Alexander Skarsgard) as well as best limited series. (HBO recently announced a second season for 香蕉视频直播淏ig Little Lies,香蕉视频直播� which will change its category in other awards shows.)
Other nominees with Canadian connections include Toronto-born 香蕉视频直播淲ill and Grace香蕉视频直播� star Eric McCormack for best actor in a musical or comedy series, the Canadian co-production 香蕉视频直播淭he Breadwinner香蕉视频直播� for best animated film and the Alberta-shot series 香蕉视频直播淔argo香蕉视频直播� for TV香蕉视频直播檚 best limited series or motion picture. 香蕉视频直播淭he Handmaid香蕉视频直播檚 Tale,香蕉视频直播� based on Canadian author Margaret Atwood香蕉视频直播檚 acclaimed novel, also received several nominations, including best television drama.
FX香蕉视频直播檚 Bette Davis and Joan Crawford chronicle 香蕉视频直播淔eud: Bette and Joan香蕉视频直播� landed four nominations, including nods for Jessica Lange and Susan Sarandon.

Also with numerous nominations were Netflix香蕉视频直播檚 香蕉视频直播淪tranger Things,香蕉视频直播� and NBC香蕉视频直播檚 香蕉视频直播淭his Is Us.香蕉视频直播�
Left out were frequent Globes-nominees 香蕉视频直播淗ouse of Cards香蕉视频直播� and 香蕉视频直播淭ransparent,香蕉视频直播� two of the TV affected by the cascading fallout of sexual harassment allegations in the wake of Harvey Weinstein香蕉视频直播檚 ouster. It香蕉视频直播檚 been an omnipresent component of this year香蕉视频直播檚 awards season, including Monday. As usual, the nominations were partly announced on NBC香蕉视频直播檚 香蕉视频直播淭oday香蕉视频直播� show, where Matt Lauer was recent fired following allegations of sexual misconduct.
Gary Oldman, nominated for best actor for his Winston Churchill in 香蕉视频直播淒arkest Hour,香蕉视频直播� said it香蕉视频直播檚 cast an unusual pall over the season.
香蕉视频直播淗ow should we celebrate? Well, I don香蕉视频直播檛 think any of it香蕉视频直播檚 funny, so I guess that people will stay away from it in the ceremony,香蕉视频直播� said Oldman by phone Monday. 香蕉视频直播淚t香蕉视频直播檚 evolution, and it香蕉视频直播檚 good that we sort of start to check ourselves about what we do and what we say and how we do it and how we say it to people, so I think it香蕉视频直播檚 ultimately a good thing. But I can香蕉视频直播檛 see too much of this coming up in (the show), up there on the platform, as it were, on the podium. It香蕉视频直播檚 not something to joke about, I don香蕉视频直播檛 think.香蕉视频直播�
The nominees were announced from Beverly Hills after still-burning fires ravaged Southern California for the past week. The Thomas Fire has destroyed some 790 structures and forced thousands to evacuate their homes, with the blazes even entering the nearby neighbourhood of Bel Air.
The Globes haven香蕉视频直播檛 traditionally predicted the Oscars, but they did last January. The Globes best-picture winners 香蕉视频直播� 香蕉视频直播淢oonlight香蕉视频直播� and 香蕉视频直播淟a La Land香蕉视频直播� 香蕉视频直播� both ultimately ended up on the stage for the final award of the Oscars, with 香蕉视频直播淢oonlight香蕉视频直播� emerging victorious only after the infamous envelope flub. The press association, which has worked in recent years to curtail its reputation for odd choices, is composed of approximately 90 freelance international journalists.
The last Globes broadcast, hosted by Jimmy Fallon, averaged 20 million viewers, an upswing of 8 per cent, according to Nielsen. This year, Fallon香蕉视频直播檚 NBC late-night partner, Seth Meyers, will host the January 7 ceremony.
No Cecil B. DeMille lifetime achievement recipient has yet been chosen. Last year香蕉视频直播檚 honoree, Streep, spoke forcefully against the then President-elect Donald Trump, shortly before his inauguration, leading him to criticize the actress as 香蕉视频直播渙verrated.香蕉视频直播� This year, she 香蕉视频直播� along with Spielberg and Hanks 香蕉视频直播� return with a pointed and timely drama, 香蕉视频直播淭he Post,香蕉视频直播� about the power of the press to counter lies emanating from the White House.
