Spike Lee‘s “Da 5 Bloods” was the big loser, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association’s distaste for the film was relayed to me a few days ago, I expected this, as not even Delroy Lindo got nominated in the Actor category. It’s going to be an awkward Golden Globes for Lee, as his two kids, Satchel and Jackson Lee, had earlier been selected as special presenters for the ceremony. You expect out-of-left-field stuff from the Globes, but having James Corden‘s flamboyant performance in “The Prom” nominated the Supporting Actor category is a total farce. Ditto Sacha Baron Cohen‘s retread, all-too-obvious work in “Borat Subsequent Moviefilm.” Cohen was also nominated for a Best Supporting Actor Golden Globe for his performance in ‘Chicago 7’ but that was expected. On the, somewhat, positive side, you get three female directors nominated in the directing category. Too bad Regina King (“One Night in Miami”) doesn’t deserve to be in the same company as Emerald Fennell (“Promising Young Woman”) and Chloe Zhao (“Nomadland”). Even worse, the two best female directors of 2020 were nowhere to be found, nor were their films; Eliza Hittman’s “Never Rarely Sometimes Always” and Kelly Reichardt’s “First Cow.” Also, giving Jared Leto a Supporting Actor nomination for “The Little Things” What?! And you snub the year’s best supporting turn, Paul Raci’s work in “The Sound of Metal,” for that token serial killer role/performance? Someone give me an aspirin. Hey, at least Zendaya (“Malcolm and Marie”) didn’t get nominated for her awful and overpraised performance.
