And although I still can't understand how a
film like The Martian is categorized under comedy/musical,
there were several films and TV shows expected to be nominated and some that
didn’t make the cut. Critically-acclaimed film, Brooklyn, a movie that was nominated for various critic association
awards, including our very own WAFCA, is snubbed in the best motion
picture category. However, lead actress Saoirse Ronan is at least nominated for
her superb performance in the aforementioned film.
Leonardo DiCaprio nabs a best actor nod for The
Revenant and acclaimed drama, Mr. Robot, is nominated for
best TV drama. The Big Short is recognized in four categories, Carol leads
with five, and Spotlight, The
Danish Girl, The Hateful Eight, The Martian, and Room receive three
nominations, respectively. Denzel Washington will be honored and is slated
to receive the Cecil
B. Demille Award for lifetime achievement.
The 2016 Golden Globes will be hosted by
comedian Ricky Gervais, taking over from Tina Fey and Amy Poehler and will air
on NBC on January 10, 2016.
