The 78th Annual Golden Globes award night came in limping on February 28 because of tech glitches, the challenges of a first-ever bi-coastal ceremony, and a ton of pre-event controversy. However, it somehow managed to pull it off, awarding the best movies and television and streaming series of 2020.
Nomadland, a moving drama about van dwellers, directed by Chloe Zhao's and Borat 2, a satire by Sacha Baron Cohen won top movie honours at a scaled-down virtual ceremony at the Golden Globes, which was held bi-coastally due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
Zhao, a Chinese-American filmmaker, also won the best director trophy, becoming the only second woman director and the first woman director of Asian descent to win at the Globes.
Boseman, who died last year at the age of 43 following a four-year-long private battle with colon cancer, won the award in the best performance by an actor in a motion picture drama category. Boseman's wife, Simone Ledward, accepted the award, his first Globe, on the actor's behalf.
