Golden Globes

The Revenant and The Martian dominate, top awards go to Leonardo DiCaprio and Brie Larson…

On Sunday evening, all eyes were on Hollywood for the Golden Globes hosted by Ricky Gervais, as the cast and creators of the world of film and TV hit the red carpet all hoping to receive a coveted award, but who were the big winners?

Yes, that movie that everyone has been buzzing about for months now certainly made its mark – THE REVENANT. The film triumphed at this year’s Golden Globes, winning the night’s most coveted prize for best dramatic film. It was certainly amongst a great line-up of films, but it did not come as a huge surprise to see this year’s most talked about movie pick up the gong.

The Revenant faced tough competition, but came up trumps.

Leading man, Leonardo DiCaprio had his moment to shine as he won best actor in a drama, while Alejandro González Iñárritu won for its direction. Does this mean that DiCaprio will finally win the Oscar? It certainly stands a good chance now… 

Ridley Scott‘s hit movie THE MARTIAN was also a great winner on the night, after being named best comedy or musical film, winning a further Globe for star Matt Damon.

Brie Larson was awarded for her superb role in ROOM winning the best actress in a drama, while Jennifer Lawrence won best comedy actress.

British winners included Kate Winslet, picking up the best supporting actress award for her role in STEVE JOBS, as the Apple guru’s assistant, but Eddie Redmayne, Dame Helen Mirren, Dame Maggie Smith and Idris Elba missed out.

Mark Rylance, who was nominated in both the TV and film categories, was tipped to win the best supporting actor Globe for his role in BRIDGE OF SPIES, but lost out to Sylvester Stallone for his fantastic comeback performance as Rocky Balboa in CREED.

STEVE JOBS also picked up the award for Aaron Sorkin‘s screenplay – making the biopic the only other multiple film winner of the night.

CAROL, MAD MAX: FURY ROAD and SPOTLIGHT fell short at the awards walking away empty handed, whilst THE BIG SHORT and THE DANISH GIRL failed to make an impression.

As widely predicted, Pixar’s INSIDE OUT won best animated film and veteran Italian composer Ennio Morricone won his third Golden Globe for Quentin Tarantino‘s THE HATEFUL EIGHT.

Amazon was the big overall winner in the television categories, with two wins apiece for the streaming services’ original dramas, MR ROBOT and MOZART IN THE JUNGLE.

Gael Garcia Bernal was crowned best actor in a comedy or musical TV series for his role as conductor Rodrigo in MOZART IN THE JUNGLE, and Christian Slater won the best supporting actor in a series for MR ROBOT. 

EMPIRE’s Taraji P Henson was named best actress in a TV drama series and MAD MEN’s Jon Hamm picked up his second best actor Golden Globe for MAD MEN – eight years after winning his first at the start of the series.
