At the 83rd Golden Globes held on Sunday, Paul Thomas Anderson's groundbreaking film, One Battle After Another, took home the top honors in the comedy category. Meanwhile, Chloe Zhao's adaptation of Shakespeare's Hamnet surprised many by winning the award for best film in the drama category.
One Battle After Another not only clinched the best film in comedy but also earned accolades for Teyana Taylor as the best supporting female actor, along with Anderson winning for best director and best screenplay. This achievement makes him only the second director to sweep these categories at the Globes, a feat previously accomplished by Oliver Stone for Born on the Fourth of July.
Despite Hamnet's victory, Sinners secured awards for best score and recognition for cinematic and box-office success.
The ceremony, hosted by Nikki Glaser, was a star-studded affair that marked a comeback for the Globes after recent controversies. The event featured wins for the animated hit KPop Demon Hunters (best animated film and song) and a unique award for podcasting, which went to Amy Poehler's Good Hang.
