The 75th Golden Globe Awards ceremony took place on January 8 (Hanoi time).
Accordingly, the two movies that just won the Golden Globe – Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri and Lady Bird – took full advantage of this opportunity.
Saoirse Ronan received the Golden Globe Award for `Best Actress in a Comedy/Musical`.
Indiewire’s Anne Thompson comments on the changes in the 2018 Oscar race. Director Martin McDonagh, lead actress Frances McDormand, supporting actor Sam Rockwell of Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri increase their chances at the Oscar after wins
Previously, Rockwell was considered to be quite equal with Willem Dafoe (The Florida Project) in the supporting male award, but now he is slightly better.
Allison Janney (I, Tonya) won the Golden Globe Award for `Best Supporting Actress`.

Variety’s Kristopher Tapley paid attention to artists’ art of speaking when receiving Golden Globe awards.
Gary Oldman won the `Outstanding Actor in a Drama` award for his role as British Prime Minister Winston Churchill in Darkest Hour.
`The Golden Globes is like a podium for street speakers, a rehearsal, a test run for the Oscars,` Tapley commented.
