Golden Globe nominations 2020: Joker is now award-winning cinema
The prize-giving season is in the air and there is no better way to shine and glamor than to nominate Joker for a Golden Globe.
Joker is nominated in four categories: Best Actor in a Drama, Best Drama, Best Score and Best Director. In particular, Joker shares two nomination slots with The Irishman by Martin Scorsese, who dwarfed comic films earlier this year. Looks like we know the feelings of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association on this matter.
Rian Johnson’s wonderful Whodunnit Knives Out is nominated for Best Comedy along with Quentin Tarantino’s Hollywood Love Letter “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood”. The Lion King is officially an animated film according to the Foreign Press Association.
It’s not surprising that Game of Thrones has a nomination for Best Actor on TV with Kit Harrington, for whom there is little else to show. Instead, some heavy hitters from The Crown and Succession make the list.
