The 81st Annual Golden Globes Awards kicked off a new era for the ceremony, with the private equity firm Eldridge Industries and Dick Clark Productions taking over where the Hollywood Foreign Press Association left off. Jo Koy was the MC for the occasion, and with an opening monologue filled with jokes that fell flat in the room, Koy did his best to blame his writers for the crickets.

The Beverly Hilton packed in tons of massive stars, from Taylor Swift, who was there to represent her “Eras Tour” film, which grabbed a nomination for Cinematic and Box Office Achievement, to Oprah Winfrey, who presented the night’s final award. Regarding the television series that won, “Beef” won all three categories nominated, including Best Limited Series. “The Bear” won Best Television Series – Musical or Comedy, along with its two stars, Jeremy Allen White and Ayo Edebiri, winning their categories. The final season of “Succession” was not only the most nominated series of the night but took four awards, including Kieran Culkin for Best Performance by a Male Actor – Drama, as he poked fun at taking the award instead of Pedro Pascal, along with the entire series winning Best Television Series – Drama.

On the motion picture side, “Barbie,” which was a considerable favorite coming into the night, would take Best Original Song, which went to Billie Eilish and Finneas O’Connell for their song “What Was I Made For?” and the new award instated this year, Best Cinematic and Box Office Achievement. “Barbie” would go on to miss Best Motion Picture – Musical Or Comedy, with Yorgos Lanthimos’ “Poor Things” sneaking in for the win. Emma Stone also won for her role in the film. Paul Giamatti and Da’Vine Joy Randolph both won for their performances in “The Holdovers,” and Cillian Murphy and Robert Downey Jr. both won for their roles in “Oppenheimer.”

The big acting win was Lily Gladstone for her performance in “Killers of the Flower Moon,” marking the first time an actress of Native American descent won the award. She would thank her mother for teaching her the native language and calling all indigenous people to follow their dreams. “Anatomy Of A Fall” won Best Non-English Language Motion Picture and Best Screenplay, with Justine Triet accepting the award for both. “The Boy and the Heron” became the first anime film to win the prize, with Hayao Miyazaki not present at the ceremony.

“Oppenheimer” ended up as the biggest motion picture winner. Along with the two acting awards, it won Best Original Score for Ludwig Göransson, Best Director for Christopher Nolan, and the final award of the night, Best Motion Picture – Drama, which Emma Thomas accepted as she talked about the love of making films and would go on to thank everyone, from production assistants to her partner and the director of the film, Christopher Nolan.
