The 74th Golden Globes took place Sunday night in Beverly Hills, and the Hollywood Foreign Press Association was in a particularly musical mood. La La Land swept, taking home all seven awards it was nominated for (including Best Picture – Musical or Comedy), and made some history in the process. Damien Chazelle’s musical valentine became the most honored film in Golden Globe history.
There were plenty of other notable winners as well. Barry Jenkins’ Moonlight won but one award but it was a big one – for Best Picture (Drama) while a few acting surprises took place as well in the form of Isabelle Huppert’s win for her controversial French noir Elle and, most shockingly, Aaron Taylor-Johnson’s prize for his supporting performance in Tom Ford’s Nocturnal Animals. The most talked about moment from this year’s Golden Globe ceremony, however, certainly came in Meryl Streep’s eloquent and politically pointed speech while accepting this year’s Cecil B. DeMille Award (you can watch it here.)
