The Globes wrapped up a few hours ago, in what can be described as a historical night. Or at least we all hope that it will be. Seth Meyers kicked off with the phrase "Good evening ladies and -remaining- gentlemen" which pretty much summarizes the tone of the night. The monologue was non-apologetic and to the bone, in a way that only Meyers can deliver, with references about Weinstein, Spacey, Allen and of course Trump and he did deliver a prophecy that Oprah will be running for President with Tom Hanks as Vice President. Well... Winfrey-Hanks 2020? Too soon? Well, now we wait and see.... The evening was dominant with the support of the whole room towards the Time's Up and the #MeToo initiative, with almost all winners and presenters making a reference towards the issue. Either in a funny way, with Amy Poehler reclamining her wine, or in a badass way, like Natalie Portman who straight up called out the HFPA when introducing the Best Director category with the phrase "And here are the all-male nominees". Of course Oprah's speech when receiving the Cecil B. de Mille award, was the best summary of the issues being faced in all industries, not only Hollywood and once again she gave us hope on what the future may bring. Other highlights of the night were Aziz Ansari being the first man of Asian descent to win Best Actor in a TV comedy, Sterling K. Brown becoming the first African-American Actor to win in the Best Actor-TV Drama category and Oprah being the first African-American woman to win the Cecil B. DeMille Award for lifetime achievement. Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri being the ultimate winner with 4 out of 6 awards and Lady Bird got the recognition that the HFPA failed to give to Greta Gerwig for her directorial work by winning Best Comedy. One of the funniest moments came from none other than Tommy Wiseau, who hillariously tried to snatch the mic off James Franco during his acceptance speech for Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture — Musical or Comedy in The Disaster Artist! To be honest I was waiting for a "You're tearing me apart Lisa" moment, but I will settle for this. And here is the complete list of this year's winners:
