Matt Bomer is certainly having a great week. Just a few days after picking up a People’s Choice award he’s won himself a Golden Globe for his excellent performance as an HIV+ man in The Normal Heart.
That wasn’t the only LGBT interest at the Globes, as Amazon’s original TV series Transparent did well, picking up both Best Television Series – Comedy Or Musical, and Best Actor In A Television Series – Comedy Or Musical for Jeffrey Tambor. Transparent creator Jill Soloway dedicated the show’s award to Leelah Alcorn, a transgender teen who recently took her life, leaving a heartbreaking suicide note online. Tambor meanwhile dedicated his win to the transgender community.
This year’s Oscar race is pretty open, but last night’s Golden Globes have helped point out the frontrunners. The big winners in the Best Film races were Boyhood for Drama and The Grand Budapest Hotel for Comedy Or Musical. Boyhood also took Best Director for Richard Linklater, putting it in good stead for a major showing at this Thursday’s Oscar nominations.
In the film acting races, Eddie Redmayne took best actor in a Drama for The Theory of Everything while Julianne Moore won the Actress award for Still Alice. For Comedy Or Musical Amy Adams won best actress for Big Eyes, with Michael Keaton taking best actor for Birdman. Patricia Arquette won best supporting actress for her role in Boyhood, while J.K. Simmons won Whiplash best supporting actor for.
Despite numerous nominations, The Imitation Game, about gay hero Alan Turing, walked away with nothing, while Pride, which was a surprise nominee in the Best Picture – Musical Or Comedy race, couldn’t continue to surprise with a win. Matt Bomer was the only win for the acclaimed Normal Heart, with Fargo winning the Best TV Movie or Mini-Series award that many thought Heart could walk away with. Orange Is The New Black also failed to pick up a gong, despite scoring three nominations.
