No Danish film has been nominated for a Golden Globe award. Two Netflix movies nestled in the bend.
Two Netflix movies is the race with the most nominations for the coveted Golden Globe statuettes, as the Hollywood Foreign Press Association is handing out.
It is clear on Monday afternoon Danish time, where the nominations have been published.
the Film “the Marriage Story”, which recently has come on the Danish Netflix service, is nominated for six awards, including best drama.
Martin Scorceses new gangster movie on Netflix, which has a length of three and a half hours, “The Irishman”, is nominated for five awards.
Also Quentin tarantino’s critically acclaimed “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” is doing well with five nominations.
Netflix’s’ down by the major film and television awards is, according to the film journalist and critic Casper Hindse not random.
– the Money in the film industry is about to change hands. It is Netflix, who has the money at the moment. And it is Netflix, which offers enormous creative freedom to them, they set to make a film.
– It is a development that has been going on for a while. This year, it could well indicate that Netflix for the seriousness of the banks to take the whole shebang, says Casper Hindse.
the HBO series “Killing Eve” with Danish Kim Bodnia in a major supporting role, is nominated in the category for best drama series.
But in the category of best foreign film was the Danish hope “the Queen” with Trine Dyrholm starring bypassed.
the Golden Globe awards are often used as a kind of benchmark for how it goes, when that later is to be distributed satisfied.
But all hope is not out for the “Queen”, assesses the Casper Hindse.
– Oscarakademiet consists of many thousand people, who must nominate, and the Golden Globe are awarded by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, which is quite a few people.
– But we may well say that on the list of nominations are for the Golden Globe, there are some strong films in the foreign category. So it becomes difficult for “the Queen” to the list with the academy awards, he says.
The 77. edition of the Golden Globe ceremony will take place 5. January 2020. Two days after there can no longer be voted on who should be nominated for an Oscar.
