Given how dramatically the group’s voting body has changed in recent years, predicting the Golden Globes winners—as we attempted to do this week—is even harder than it used to be, back when things could happen like Paul Giamatti winning for a film called Barney’s Version. The 2024 Golden Globe nominees may be a little less out there than we used to expect from the Globes, but in many categories that doesn’t make the winner any easier to predict. After all, this is the first televised awards show of the season, and the first non-critics group to weigh in. Anything, in theory, is possible!
But of course the Little Gold Men team makes a business out of informed speculation, and on this week’s episode they do their best to predict many of the major Globes categories, including the ones where nobody can agree on what will happen. Will the momentum Charles Melton got from critics group wins allow him to triumph over major stars like Robert Downey Jr. and Ryan Gosling in the supporting-actor category? Will the split between comedy and drama in the lead-acting categories allow both Lily Gladstone and Emma Stone to win—or will a critical darling dark horse like Sandra Hüller surprise everyone? And with The Eras Tour concert movie nominated for the new cinematic and box office achievement category, and the Kansas City Chiefs playing in Los Angeles the same day…will Travis Kelce find a way to attend with Taylor Swift anyway?
All that and more on this week’s show, which also includes a look back at the Oscar short lists announced in December, and discussion of listener questions about the state of the race now that the holidays are behind us. (Want to submit your own question? Email [email protected]).
