A night of shocks at this years Golden Globes


It was an night of unprecedented shocks at this years Golden Globes as Bohemian Rhapsody and Rami Malek were the big winners on a night when the much fancied A Star is Born took home only  one gong for Best Song with the Bradley Cooper, Lady Gaga and the film itself failing to reap rewards for the incredible hype that has followed the film since it's cinematic release last year.
There was also notable shocks in the success of Peter Farrelly's Green Book with the feature winning  Musical or Comedy Motion Picture as well as Supporting Actor for Mahershala Ali.
Less shocking were the wins for Alfonso Cuaran for Best Director and Foreign Language Feature for Roma, Christian Bale for Best Actor for Vice and Olivia Coleman for Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy for The Favourite although Glenn Close's win for Best Actress in a Motion Picture Drama for The Wife suggests that she may have some stiff competition come Academy Award time in a category that is sure to be the hardest to call for many years.
Overall, this years Golden Globes have shown to indicate that this years Awards season may carry that air of unpredictability about it and could throw up a few more surprises comes Oscar season in a year full of quality with no clear favourite amongst the runners and riders.
