Read full article: Kate Hudson in, Spike Lee out and more Golden Globe chaosFrom the Kate Hudson movie that no one has heard of to the very awkward shut out of Spike Lee, hereโs a look at some of the biggest surprises of the morning. Youโd be hard pressed to find someone who wasnโt surprised to hear Kate Hudsonโs name announced among the best actress nominees. Leeโs acclaimed Vietnam drama โDa 5 Bloodsโ was expected to be a shoo-in for any number of categories: Best picture, best director, best actor for Delroy Lindo or supporting actor for Chadwick Boseman, who died last year. The Globe nominations also tested our understanding of what constitutes a film with some interesting categorizations and nominations, putting Steve McQueenโs โSmall Axeโ anthology film series in a television category. The filmed โHamiltonโ performance on Disney+, meanwhile, was eligible in the film categories and picked up two nominations.

Scorsese, who had waited decades to direct Pacino, wasnโt inclined to start off by telling Pacino to get younger, fast. At the filmโs premiere at the New York Film Festival, Scorsese told the same story about Tacon and Pacino. After that film, Tacon fell in with famed stunt director Victor Magnotta.

'Parasite,' 'Bombshell' get a boost in SAG nominations
Read full article: 'Parasite,' 'Bombshell' get a boost in SAG nominationsThe SAG Awards are one of the most closely watched Academy Awards bellwethers because, historically, a best ensemble nomination from the actors is usually a prerequisite for any best-picture contender's resume. Notably missing out on the best ensemble nomination was Noah Baumbach's divorce drama โMarriage Story," which on Monday led the Golden Globe nominations with six nods. Johansson was nominated in that category, as well, for her performance in โJojo Rabbit.โRecently, a SAG ensemble nomination hasn't been quite as vital for a best-picture winner at the Oscars. Nothing got more of a boost from the actors guild than โBombshell,โ which tied โThe Irishmanโ and โOnce Upon a Time ... in Hollywoodโ with a co-leading four nominations. In best drama series ensemble, the actors nominated the casts of โBig Little Lies,โ โThe Crown," โGame of Thrones," โThe Handmaid's Taleโ and โStranger Things."
