‘The Banshees of Inisherin’, ‘The Fabelmans’ and ‘Everything Everywhere All at Once’ Win at the 2023 Golden Globes

It was supposed to be the celebratory comeback for the Golden Globes after the many scandals of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association led to the show not airing last year. But this year’s Golden Globes, thanks to host Jerrod Carmichael and various presenters couldn’t quite escape its issues, despite stunts such as having Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy send a video message.

Still, the alcohol flowed and the celebs showed and trophies were handed out. Highlights? Michelle Yeoh threatening to beat up whoever was behind the music that swelled to tell her that her time on stage was up.

A funny, rambling speech from Jennifer Coolidge, winning another award for ‘The White Lotus’ and lifetime achievement award winner Ryan Murphy paying tribute to those who have helped him build a successful TV empire. Not to mention Eddie Murphy receiving the Cecil B. DeMille Award and quoting Will Smith's "Keep my wife's name out of your mouth" Oscar moment in his speech.

Some wins could have been predicted––Cate Blanchett, for example (who didn’t show up), several trophies for ‘The Banshees of Inisherin’, and Guillermo del Toro’s ‘Pinocchio’ taking home the Animated Movie award.

More surprising––delightfully so–– was ‘RRR’ taking Best Original Song and ‘Yellowstone’ actually taking home an award (for star Kevin Costner).
