Scandals, intrigues, investigations: what to expect from the "Golden Globe" 2018

"Away" in the comedy category and other dubious nominations

Of course, every year there are those who for one reason or another the composition of the nominees to the "Golden Globe" are dissatisfied - this is in the order of things, but in 2018 the reason to be displeased much more woeful because of the film "Away". The Universal Studio, apparently, decided that in the category "Best Movie - Drama" Competition is too high, and suggested "away" in the category "The best film - comedy or musical", and the organizers "ZG" really gave this horror, albeit with elements Satira, relevant nomination.

I liked the decision not to all, it was Lily Rell in the list of criticizing it, which played one of the main roles:

"There is nothing funny in racism. The actual question is this in what: what are you laughing at? "

Jordan Pil, the director "away", with the participation of which the decision was made to send a film into the comedy category of the "Golden Globe", after the announcement of the nominees spoke very gracefully - he (or his PR) would definitely learn from the art of diplomatic comments:

"The reason for which this film is subconsciously perceived as a comedy is that we still live in an era when the call of African Americans to justice is not perceived seriously. It is important to recognize that, although the film has funny moments, racism is quite real. What is happening shows me that the film can become a driving force of change. In the end, call "away" by the film of horrors, comedy, drama, action or documentary, I do not care without any difference. No matter how you call it, just know that this is our reality. "

Of course, this in the history of the "Golden Globe" is not happening for the first time - which is only a scandal with Marcianin Ridley Scott, which not only competed for a statuette in the category "The best film - comedy or musical" category, but in the end it also won. At the same time "Golden Globe" as the best actor in comedy or musical received and playing the major role of Matt Damon.

Other surprises that provided us with the announcement of nominees to the Golden Globe 2018:

Total ignore "Miracle Women." After Warner Bros. Announced the decision to promote a "wonder-woman" on Oscar, many have believed that both nominations will get some nominations to the "ZG" of the Summer Blockbster. In the end, it did not get any one.

Total ignore "Logan" - let the 20th Century Fox and did not declare Logan's promotional campaign so pathetic and loud as the creators of the Miracle Women, many believe that a farewell film about Rosomach deserved at least a couple of nominations (true, incomprehensible which categories).

Once again, I was left without the nomination of Emma Watson - surprisingly, but at the star "Harry Potter" for all her career there is no single nomination for the "ZG". And, although critics and spectators from "Beauty and Monsters" are in the same delight, the nomination of Emma, ​​apparently, did not reach again. And the list of those who Emma lost to competition in the struggle for the nomination at the "ZG" in the category "The Best Actress - Comedy or Musical", looks like this:

Judi Dench / Victoria and Abdul

Margo Robbie / Tonya against all

Sirsha Ronan / Lady Berd

Emma Stone / Floor Battle

Helen Mirren / Searching for a holiday

The ceremony announcement of the nominees to the "Golden Globe" 2018:

"Blackout" on the red carpet

The output of the stars on the red carpet of the "Golden Globe" 2018 will turn into a kind of protest. A few weeks ago it became known that Hollywood actresses are going to massively put on the ceremony of black outfits - in protest against sexual harassment.

Female colleagues will support both men: Duane Johnson completely unequivocally and publicly stated that he was going to take part in this protest action, and the famous stylists who dressed most Hollywood actors started talking about "Blackaute", from the armor of Hammer to Hugh Jackman.

This is good or bad - to turn such an event as a kinonagrad's presentation ceremony, in the arena for social and political speeches - you can argue for a very long time. More precisely, we can argue, but in Hollywood men in connection with the latest events there are no right: as one of the stylists said, the black costumes of actors on the red carpet will be "inevitable." Stylist of Ilaria Urbanati, which works with Dune Johnson, Tom Hiddleston, Armor Hummer, allowed himself a hint of even more transparent:

"I can say with confidence that now - obviously not the time to do a different choice and stay aside."

Monologues on Harrasment at the ceremony itself

At the ceremony itself, forget about the scandal with Harvey Weinstein and other accused of harassment representatives of Hollywood, we will not be given either. Back in December, in the promotional video of the Golden Globe 2018, the master of the ceremony of the network Myers said "We will need to discuss a lot of things," and, despite the cheerful music, it is clear to everyone that Myers said not at all about positive events.

75th Ceremony of awards in the field of cinema and television "Golden Globe" will be held on the night from 7 to 8 January 2018 - from 4:00 to 7:00 Moscow time. The output of the stars on the red carpet will start an hour earlier - at 3:00 Moscow time.
