Find all the winners of the evening that we brought to you live all night long.
A few tears but above all a lot of smiles. The Golden Globes shook up French cinema this Sunday, January 5, with one of its most unique productions in recent years triumphing. Unclassifiable, the breathtaking musical comedy Emilia Perez had already marked this 82nd edition even before the ceremony took place by securing a record ten nominations. Jacques Audiard’s film, already doubly awarded at the Cannes Film Festival in the spring, left Beverly Hills with four trophies in its pocket, winning the first and the very last of the evening.
Crowned best actress in a supporting role, Zoe Saldanã was even able to return to the stage alongside Camille and Clément Ducol to receive the Golden Globe for best song for “El Mal”. Jacques Audiard preferred to give way to his heroine Karla Sofia Gascon at the time of the final thanks. “Light always prevails over darkness (…). You can beat us but you will never be able to take away our soul, our existence, our identity (…). I am who I am and not who you want me to be”said the Spanish actress. As a response to US President-elect Donald Trump who wants “stop the transgender madness” upon his inauguration.
“The Brutalist”, a strong contender for the Oscars
In ambush, the dramatic fresco The Brutalist sis distinguished with three major trophies, including the award for best actor in a dramatic film for its star Adrien Brody. The American actor also had the greatest difficulty in hiding his emotion when discussing this fiction recalling what his grandparents and his mother experienced while fleeing the war in Hungary. In theaters on February 12 in France, this work, as powerful as it is sumptuous, lasting more than 3 hours, stands out more than ever as one of the great favorites for the Oscars. Will the Academy be as sensitive to the audacity ofEmilia Perez ?
