Even though the Golden Globes increased its membership for diversity, they still managed to exclude one of the most vibrant and powerful films of 2023.
Not included in Best Comedy or Musical was “The Color Purple,” the gorgeous musical version of the 1985 movie. It’s not in that category or Best Director or Best Song or Musical Score. The movie did get a Best Actress nomination for Fantasia and Supporting Actress for Danielle Brooks, however.
The Globes made “May December” a comedy– a serious drama — is laughable.
George Clooney’s “The Boys in the Boat” was completely omitted. So was Ava DuVernary’s “Origin.” Michael Mann’s “Ferrari” was ignored as well.
In TV, neither Jennifer Aniston nor Reese Witherspoon was nominated for “The Morning Show.”
