Once upon a time, you could attend a dozen afterparties following a Golden Globes ceremony and never leave the Beverly Hilton estate, they were all under one roof. Cities were constructed up on the actual roof or atop the parking lot.
You’d emerge from the show and trot downstairs to HBO. Then you’d queue by a bank of elevators and go visit Universal. Warner Bros and In-Style would be through the lobby, past the bar, down a long corridor.
Once you’d tired of them, you’d take a golf cart — some of us walked — to where, say, Sony was located.
Paramount was that-away. Netflix partied on the moon.
Harvey Weinstein would hold court in Miramax-Weinstein land. Many of us were at the Weinstein bash when we heard the news of David Bowie’s death.

You’d come outta the Disney rave and hear tell of delicious lamb cutlets over at Amazon. Can that be right? No, forgive me, the cutlets were HBO’s forte. So much food. There were no starving people after a Golden Globe cookout.
And, come on, no one went thirsty either. After a while, folk were so intoxicated they’d stagger or crawl on their bellies to the next gig. I’m exaggerating somewhat, but I’m also not because over three decades I witnessed plenty of people over refreshing themselves at each stop.
Whoopee was had by one and all.
