‘Carol’ leads Golden Globe nominations with five nods

“The Danish Girl” was highlighted for its actors – both Eddie Redmayne and Vikander got Globe nominations – but the film and director didn’t get nominations.

This year’s Golden Globe nominations have the streaming leader Netflix dominating, as the New York Times reports here. Room, an independent film based on the best-selling novel of the same name, is also up for Best Motion Picture – Drama.

-Actress, Movie or Limited Series: Kirsten Dunst, “Fargo”; Lady Gaga, “American Horror Story: Hotel”; Sarah Hay, “Flesh & Bone”; Felicity Huffman, “American Crime”; Queen Latifah.

Members of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, organizers of the Golden Globes, recognized a slew of new acting talent, such as Rachel Bloom, 28, star of the CW’s Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, who landed her first major nomination.

Matt Damon for “The Martian”, Steve Carell for “The Big Short”, Al Pacino for “Danny Collins”, Mark Ruffalo for “Infinitely Polar Bear” and Christian Bale for “The Big Short“. Truthfully, I think all the nominations do.

“This season, our trans characters are making mistakes and finding love and rejecting love and they’re all caught up in the Pfefferman family mess”. Turns out the Globes weren’t down to acknowledge them as only supporting roles, so those ladies were nominated in the best actress category instead.

-Actor, Drama: Liev Schreiber, “Ray Donovan”; Wagner Moura, “Narcos”; Bob Odenkirk, “Better Call Saul”; Rami Malek, “Mr. Robot”; Jon Hamm, “Mad Men”. Apparently displaced was Johnny Depp’s chilly Whitey Bulger in “Black Mass”. Idris Elba in Netflix’s Beasts of No Nation earned a nomination for Best Actor in a Supporting Role.

Others also landed multiple nods. In the Comedy category, Joy, Spy’and The Martian won nominations. The film is also up for best screenplay and best comedy Golden Globes.

“Chris Rock was the first person to text me”.

SNUB: Robert De Niro, “The Intern” De Niro’s performance in the Nancy Meyers crowd-pleaser is tailor-made for the Golden Globes’ musical/comedy category.

AHS fans were barraged with dark, enticing promos for months leading up to the show’s premiere, only to be smacked in the face with a distinct lack of what they were promised.

Jennifer Jason Leigh – Nominee for Best Supporting Actress in a Motion Picture “The Hateful Eight” & Best Animated Feature “Anomalisa”: “Thanks to the Hollywood Foreign Press for recognizing two projects that mean so much to me”.

The series, co-starring Jane Fonda, tells the tale of two women who are sworn enemies, but find common ground when their husbands come out as gay and start dating each other. “But it’s lovely company to be in”. Since the Academy Awards expanded beyond five nominations in 2009, the SAG Awards ensemble prize has matched at least four out of five nominees every year but one. “Like it just vibrates and makes all kinds of noises”.

– “Maybe it will help me get paid a little better”.

Agent amusing: The Musical/Comedy category’s always a wild card, as very few musicals open each year and few good comedies either, sadly. Let’s take a look at the widely-varied 2016 TV show nominees. Up for best comedy are: Amazon’s “Transparent”, HBO’s “Veep”, Netflix’s “Orange Is the New Black”, Amazon’s “Mozart in the Jungle” and Hulu’s “Casual”.

The winners will be announced in an awards ceremony set for January 10 that will air live on NBC with Ricky Gervais as host.

Premium rival Showtime saw last year’s nine nominations shrink to three.

From the sumptuous romance of “Carol” to the apocalyptic rage of “Mad Max: Fury Road”, streaming series to network dramas, Will Smith to Amy Schumer, the 73rd annual Golden Globe nominations unveiled a widespread field of nominations that attempted to corral a chaotic Oscar race and an ever-expanding television landscape.
