Golden Globe nominations led by Everything Everywhere All at Once and Banshees of Inisherin
- The multiverse mash-up starring Michelle Yeoh got 6 nods, while the Irish black comedy about feuding friends led the field with 8 nominations
- The award show is seeking a TV comeback after a year of scandal and boycott over racism and other ethical issues
After scandal and boycott plunged the Hollywood Foreign Press Association into disarray and knocked its annual award show off television for a year, the Golden Globes geared up Monday for its return by showering nominations on the black comedy The Banshees of Inisherin and the multiverse mash-up Everything Everywhere All at Once.
In an attempt to restore early-morning fanfare to the awards-season tradition, nominations were read from the Beverly Hilton and aired live on NBC’s Today show. Hollywood, which spurned the HFPA after 2021 reports detailed the body’s lack of diversity and rampant ethical indiscretions, once again woke up to news of nominees – though this time the response was much more muted.
Martin McDonagh’s feuding friends tale The Banshees of Inisherin led with eight nominations, including nods for actors Colin Farrell, Brendan Gleeson, Kerry Condon and Barry Keoghan. Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert’s existential action comedy Everything Everywhere all at Once came in second with six nominations, including nods for Michelle Yeoh, Ke Huy Quan and Jamie Lee Curtis.
The Globes spread nominations around to a number of Oscar favourites (Steven Spielberg’s The Fabelmans, Todd Fields’ Tár) while also elevating big-budget spectacles like Top Gun: Maverick and Avatar: The Way of Water. Each, along with Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis, landed nominations for best film, drama.
The nominees for best film, comedy or musical, were: The Banshees of Inisherin, Everything Everywhere All at Once, Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery, Babylon and Triangle of Sadness.
