Washington: ‘Oppenheimer’ has ended the 2024 Golden Globes with a whopping five awards! The Christopher Nolan-directed film won the award for Best Motion Picture – Drama at the 2024 awards show Sunday.
This movie took five prizes including best drama, best director for Nolan, best score, as well as acting wins for Cillian Murphy and Robert Downey Jr.
‘Anatomy of a Fall and Poor Things’ won two prizes each, with the former taking best non-English film and best screenplay, the latter winning best picture (musical or comedy) and best actress.
‘Lily Gladstone’ won best actress in a drama for her breakout performance in Martin Scorcese’s ‘Killers of the Flower Moon’ becoming the first Indigenous performer to win a Golden Globe. She opened her speech with words said in the Blackfeet language, the tribe to which she belongs.
‘Cillian Murphy’ won best actor in a drama for Oppenheimer, in which he played the eponymous role of Manhattan Project director J. Robert Oppenheimer. It’s his sixth collaboration with director Christopher Nolan — who also won for best director.
The Globes were in their 81st year but facing a new and uncertain chapter. After a tumultuous few years and heaps of scandals, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association was dissolved, leaving a new Globes to try to regain its perch as the third biggest award show of the year, after the Oscars and Grammys.
