Jane Campion’s Western drama, The Power of the Dog was named the Best Motion Picture Drama, and satirical black comedy, Succession emerged as the Best Drama Series at the 79th edition of the Golden Globe awards, which was not a starry affair, owing to a Hollywood boycott.


The Power of the Dog also won the golden gong for the Best Director-Motion Picture and rising star Kodi Smit-McPhee received a trophy for Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role. Succession, a much loved HBO series, further took home two more awards for series stars Jeremy Strong and Sarah Snook in Best Performance by an Actor in a TV series. The ceremony was held as a private, no broadcast or livestream event sans audience and red carpet appearances at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles in a scaled-down ceremony.

TV broadcaster NBC announced last May that it will not air the annual awards show, considered a precursor to the Academy Awards, after the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA) received sharp criticism for its lack of diversity and allegations of corruption.

Will Smith bagged the trophy for Best Actor in a Motion Picture Drama for his titular role in King Richard, the father and coach of tennis icons Venus and Serena Williams, while Nicole Kidman was adjudged the Best Actress in a Motion Picture Drama for Being the Ricardos. Steven Spielberg’s The West Side Story won the Golden Globe for best motion picture musical/comedy. Veteran music composer Hans Zimmer won his third Golden Globe for giving the original score of Denis Villeneuve’s Dune adaptation. Mj Rodriguez won the award for Best Actress in a TV Series for the final season of the Netflix drama, Pose. Kate Winslet received the honour for Best Performance by an Actress in a Limited Series for HBO’s Mare of Easttown. Michael Keaton scooped up the Globe for Best Performance by an Actor in a Limited Series for Dopesick.
