NEW YORK – After widespread criticism forced the Golden Globe-winning organization to lose its televised awards show and overhaul its membership, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association continues to announce nominations for film and television awards on Monday despite the entertainment industry’s skepticism.
Just as it has done for years, the HFPA gathered reporters at the Beverly Hilton to announce the selections for the 79th Golden Globes. But this time, there were no morning live performances or ceremonies. Celebrity celebration instantly.
The HFPA, which usually features several movie stars making their announcements, turned to Snoop Dogg instead, who read the nominations behind sunglasses and red hats. The majority of studios, public relations firms and A-list talent aren’t very attached to the group this year. Critics say it’s too early for HFPA to return to business as usual. Some want to see the Orb disappear.
But the press association went to great lengths to keep its place during Monday’s awards season, spreading nominations to the likes of Will Smith (King Richard), Kristen Stewart (Spencer), West story breakthrough Rachel Zegler, Leonardo DiCaprio (Don’t look up), a famous American actor (Macbeth’s Tragedy), Ben Affleck (Bidding bar) and Lady Gaga (Gucci house).
Nominations for best film, TV series, go to Jane Campion’s Gothic Western The power of the dogDenis Villeneuve’s Science Fiction Epic Sand dunes, family movie CODA, Tennis biopic by Reinaldo Marcus Green King Richard and the autobiography of Kenneth Branagh Belfast.
Musical or comedy film chosen for best picture was: Adam McKay’s Apocalypse Comedy Don’t look upPaul Thomas Anderson’s ’70s San Fernando Valley Comedy Licorice pizza, by Steven Spielberg West story, Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Clap, clack… Boom! and by Joe Wright Cyrano.
Belfast and The power of the dog were nominated the most with seven nominations each. Netflix dominated the movie nominations with a total of 17 nods.
The poor record on diversity has prompted criticism
Usually, such honors will spark a flurry of cheers from the early nominees and their studios, who will trumpet their wins on social media and in events. call with reporters. On Monday morning, none of the nominees immediately celebrated – at least publicly.
The Press Association claims that in the nine months from the 2021 show, it has remade itself. “HFPA 2.0,” recently elected president Helen Hoehne said.
The team has added a director of diversification; its board overhaul; introduced 21 new members, including six Black journalists; bring the NAACP into a five-year partnership; and update its code of conduct.
“This has been a year of change and reflection for the Foreign Press Association in Hollywood,” Hoehne said Monday.
All of that comes after a LA time‘debunked in detail some of the unethical practices of the HFPA and revealed that its 87 voting members did not include a Black journalist. Studios said it would boycott Globes, and more than 100 PR films said their clients would not participate until HFPA quickly implements “profound and lasting change.” Tom Cruise returned his three Globes to corporate headquarters.
NBC, the Globes’ longtime broadcaster, said it won’t broadcast Globes 2022 because “this change of magnitude takes time and effort.” The Globes are still setting the date as January 9 but haven’t shared any details on what kind of ceremony that will be.
Much of the Globes’ strength has always been in its live-action television programming, which is regularly one of the most watched non-sports broadcasts of the year. The Globes also serve as a promotional tool for many of the movies that are expected to hit theaters in December. But this year, few expect to see commercials and TV commercials surpassing Golden Globe nominations. of a movie.
