2015 GOLDEN GLOBE NOMINATIONS ANNOUNCED - CAROL LEADS WITH FIVE


Today's Golden Globe nominations cleared the picture up a little for the current awards season. They seem to clarify what, of the disparate strands of advocacy we've observed so far from both critics awards and the Screen Actors Guild nominations yesterday, is likeliest to stick. Spotlight looks to be the only contender to win the Best Picture Oscar, being the only one among the favourites with either a SAG Ensemble nod or a Globe Screenplay nod (it has both!). Mad Max: Fury Road is, indeed, a contender for the top awards, even if the bulk of its mentions will undoubtedly come from the tech categories (the Globes don't rly bother with those). Carol remains popular, but its Screenplay snub is worrying. And the late-breakers, The Hateful Eight, Joy and The Revenant will probably see their stock start to rise as more voters get the chance to see them and more buzz gets the chance to build. But only The Revenant seems to stand much of a shot at scoring a Best Picture Oscar nomination. The Golden Globes will take place on the 10th of January, broadcast live in the US on NBC at 8pm ET / 5pm PT.
