With all the talk about the diversification of the “new” Hollywood Foreign Press Association, particularly in terms of recruiting Black members to make up for the sheer paucity of them as revealed originally in a now-infamous Los Angeles Times report, it might be one of this morning’s key surprises in the nominations for the 80th Golden Globe Awards, that not a single film with strong Black themes or actors or behind the camera talent was among the Best Picture nominees in either Drama or Comedy/Musical categories. Most egregiously missing in those key categories, as well as directing and writing were hotly awards-buzzed The Woman King, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, and Till, the latter film completely shut out despite heavy Oscar attention expected for its star Danielle Deadwyler who last week was named Best Lead Performance at the Gothams as well as Best Actress at the Critics Choice Celebration of Black Cinema & Television. Will Smith’s return in Emancipation from director Antoine Fuqua also was AWOL, although considering its decidedly mixed critical reception and inherent controversy (although not with the Globes) that isn’t all that surprising to see it snubbed.
Only Viola Davis for her lead role in The Woman King, Jeremy Pope for his lead role in the otherwise ignored The Inspection, and Angela Bassett for her Supporting turn in Wakanda Forever made the cut among Black actors. The opportunity to nominate women of color in the directing category was also not taken as Woman King’s Gina Prince-Bythewood and Till’s Chinonye Chukwu did not make the list which actually completely snubbed female directors in a year that included strong movies also helmed by women including Women Talking and She Said.
