03 Feb Final Golden Globes Nominations Predictions
Nomadland and The Trial of the Chicago 7 are the only ones I am sure about picking in this category. I could see any group of three films from the group of One Night in Miami, Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom, Mank, Promising Young Woman, Da 5 Bloods, and Judas and the Black Messiah filling out those remaining slots. This one is really tricky because this is one of the few years where there are literally no major Best Picture contenders in the Best Comedy or Musical category.
BEST DRAMA
Nomadland
The Trial of the Chicago 7
Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom
Mank
Judas and the Black Messiah
Could Jump In: One Night in Miami, Da 5 Bloods, Promising Young Woman, News of the World, The Father
While Hamilton has the least chance of these five to be nominated here as some HFPA members may not agree that it should be included in this category as it is technically a recording of a musical, the film will likely win this category if nominated. This is one of the very few categories where I am pretty sure that these are the five that will be nominated. Emma. Might be only the one that can upset based solely on the strength of Anya Taylor-Joy being one of this year’s breakout stars.
