Vox Lux premiered on the eve of the Golden Globe nominations, which were released today. Natalie and Vox Lux didn’t snag one; admittedly, I don’t know if they were really in contention, and maybe the HFPA just didn’t get to it in time, but it made me miss the days of Variety being a trade paper with crazy overly tortured headlines: “No GoGlo Lo for NaPo,” it could scream. At any rate, if Natalie harbored hopes, there’s always the Oscars. Plus, she looks pretty good. The light is catching the front of the jacket in a way that makes it look like an hourglass shape, and I can’t tell if it’s actually a different material there or just genuinely how it’s reflecting. I also wish slightly for a very thin chain, I think, decorating the décolletage. But her head is glorious with the hot red lip, and while Dior knows its way around a coat dress, I don’t know how often we see a good suit on the red carpet from them. I’ll take it.
As for the Globes: The list of nominations is always long because it’s movies AND film, but there were a lot of surprises. No This Is Us, no Atlanta, no Westworld, and Handmaid’s Tale didn’t get a nod for its second season (though it did get two acting nominations). A Quiet Place and Widows didn’t crack it, nor did The Hate U Give. No song nom for Mary Poppins despite acting nods for both leads, no Ryan Gosling for First Man, and nada for the new Mary, Queen of Scots. I wonder if that, like Vox Lux, just didn’t make the rounds soon enough? But it’s not like Vice did, either, and that got a bunch of love.
However, Black Panther made it in, as did Crazy Rich Asians and Constance Wu, and the three ladies of The Favourite (which is good, because Emma Stone’s Netflix show Maniac got nada). Amy Adams is a double nominee, Julia Roberts and Stephan James got in for Homecoming, and no Ted Danson this time but some love for Kristen Bell. If Beale Street Could Talk got recognized even though Barry Jenkins himself didn’t, and of course A Star Is Born, yawn. It should be a fun night; some of this feels, at least right now, pretty wide open.
Here is the full list. I wasn’t going to paste it here, because it’s so long, but then I decided to just make it smaller. Or you can click to EW for the full list and then come back.
