The 2023 nominations for the Golden Globes — which are now under new management after all the scandals of the past few years — were announced today.  Amongst the more interesting nominations are Anatomy of a Fall for Best Motion Picture, Drama and ….

Well, actually none of the nominations are that interesting, though I am surprised that Rachel McAdams was not nominated for Best Supporting Actress.  That said, it remains an open question whether the Golden Globes will ever once again have the type of influence that they once had.  Last year, the ceremony wasn’t even televised and a lot of us were thankful to have an excuse not to worry about them.

I notice that the Golden Globes have decided to give out an award for “Cinematic & Box Office Achievement,” which is what I think the Oscars tried to do with their “Best Popular Film” award.

Anyway, the winners will be announced on January 7th.  Here are the nominees.
