The Golden Globes have arrived, and with that the beginning of the televised awards for film. The Golden Globes are decided by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, so they always like to throw a few curve-balls while doing their best to predict the Oscars.
Usually by now we have a few locks, for example a Cate Blanchett in Blue Jasmine or Daniel Day-Lewis in Lincoln. This year we don't have that. Gary Oldman is probably the closest thing to a lock, but Timmy Chalamet might win the Globe because of passionate fans and Oldman's past remarks about the HFPA.
Tonight's awards kind of feel like closing your eyes and throwing a dart and seeing where it lands. Best Actress in a Drama seems like a real cutthroat race with Sally Hawkins fighting it out with Frances McDormand and Meryl Streep.
These are my current predictions with an alternate in parenthesis:
Best Motion Picture - Drama: The Shape of Water (Three Billboards outside Ebbing, Missouri)
