2022 Golden Globes Winners List: ‘Power of the Dog’ and ‘Succession’ Take Top Honors
The Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA) revealed its list of 2022 Golden Globe Awards winners to a closed, limited-capacity ballroom at the Beverly Hilton on Sunday, January 9. The event was not live-streamed, and those in attendance included select HFPA members and philanthropy grantees.
The HFPA fell under intense scrutiny in 2021 for alleged improprieties in its voting process and for its startling lack of diversity, including featuring not a single Black voting member. The HFPA is made up of journalists who cover Hollywood and the entertainment industry for outlets primarily outside the United States. In response to these shortcomings, NBC canceled its broadcast of the 2022 ceremony until substantive change could be enacted, aiming for a return in 2023. On October 21, the HFPA added 21 new members to diversify its ranks — while keeping its previous membership intact.
With the Omicron variant canceling events all over the film and TV world, the HFPA opted not to even livestream its event tonight, instead announcing its winners via its website and social media. Intentionally or not — probably not, as it distracted from those actually being honored — oddly composed tweets from the official @goldenglobes handle channeled much of the anarchic energy of a typical Globes broadcast and were the primary source of commentary on Twitter during the rollout.
But there were winners, and on the film side “The Power of the Dog” made out strong with three wins, including Best Drama, Best Director for Jane Campion, and Best Supporting Actor for Kodi Smit-McPhee. “West Side Story” also took three prizes, with Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy, plus Best Actress in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy for Rachel Zegler, and Best Supporting Actress for Ariana DeBose.
On the TV side “Succession” made out strongest with three wins: Best Drama Series, Best Actor in a Drama for Jeremy Strong, and Best Supporting Actress for Sarah Snook. “Hacks” won Best Musical or Comedy Series and also Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy Series for Jean Smart.
