Golden Globe Awards

In an evening packed with numerous emotional, impactful, and celebratory moments, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association presented a unique blending of its two major yearly endeavors - the Golden Globes and the Grants Banquet. Normally a grand event, the 79th edition of the Golden Globes, inside the International Ballroom of the Beverly Hilton Hotel, took on a distinctly intimate atmosphere, respectfully following strict LA County Covid protocol.

Sidney Poitier received his first nomination for a Golden Globe in 1959 (for The Defiant Ones).  Two Black actors joined the trailblazing team.
