Golden Globes: ‘La La Land’ Leads with 7 Nods; Gibson Returns; Scorsese, Eastwood Snubbed

Globes

Damien Chazelle’s romantic musical La La Land leads all films at this year’s Golden Globes with seven nominations while coming-of-age drama Moonlight earned six and Casey Affleck-starrer Manchester By the Sea picked up five as the Hollywood Foreign Press Association announced the nominations early Monday.

La La Land earned nods for Best Drama, Best Actor and Actress for Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone and Best Director and Screenplay for Chazelle, while Moonlight will also compete in the Best Drama category and earned recognition for director Barry Jenkins and supporting actors Mahershala Ali and Naomie Harris.

Hacksaw Ridge, Lion and Hell or High Water round out the nominations in the Best Drama category, while La La Land is joined by Sing Street, Florence Foster Jenkins, 20th Century Women and the superhero movie Deadpool in Best Comedy or Musical.

Meanwhile, Mel Gibson earned his first Golden Globe nomination in 16 years with a director’s nod for Hacksaw Ridge; star Andrew Garfield earned a Best Actor nomination.

Martin Scorsese (Silence) and Clint Eastwood (Sully) were left out in the director’s categories in what some considered the year’s biggest snubs, as was Denzel Washington (Fences), though Washington did earn an acting nomination. Also left out were Sully‘s Tom Hanks, Hidden Figures‘ Taraji P. Henson (Octavia Spencer got the nomination) and Silence‘s Adam Driver.

On the TV side, The People vs. O.J. Simpson led all series with five nominations, while HBO led all networks with 14 total nominations, including for its series Westworld and The Night Of.

Meryl Streep will be honored with the evening’s Cecil B. DeMille Award, while Jimmy Fallon will host the ceremony on Sunday, Jan. 8 live from the Beverly Hilton Hotel.
