Oppenheimer wins Best Drama at 81st Golden Globes as Barbie falters

Golden Globe Awards, postponed to January 2024 last year due to the strike of screenwriters and actors, take place with the presentation of Jo Koy and the best of the year received their awards

The blockbuster film “Oppenheimer,” based on the nuclear physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer, who spearheaded the development of the first nuclear bomb, has garnered significant attention at this year’s Golden Globes, receiving eight nominations, making it one of the most nominated films.

At the ceremony organized by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA), Christopher Nolan secured the “Best Director Award” for “Oppenheimer”, and Cillian Murphy earned the “Best Actor Award” for his role in the film. This marks Nolan’s first Golden Globe victory in his sixth nomination for “Best Director.” Oppenheimer dominated the night with five awards, including “Best Picture.”

In 2023, the blockbuster “Barbie” secured two awards, for Billie Eilish’s song “What was I made for” and a new category, “Cinematic and box office achievement,” created for widely seen films.

“Succession” claimed four awards, including the title of “Best Drama Series”, while “The Bear” and “Beef” each took home three awards.
