The 78th Golden Globe Award Nominations

7/2/2021

0 Comments

 
No prizes for guessing what I will be watching between now and the Golden Globe Awards ceremony.  Everything that I haven't gotten around to seeing yet that has received a Golden Globe nomination of course! And even though COVID19 ravaged the planet in 2020, there were still some excellent viewing experiences to be had and the nominations are looking very tasty indeed.
Fortunately, I will not need to go into viewing hibernation over February to get through the list because I have actually already seen quite a lot of the nominations and I can assure you all that they are all very worthy recipients of the accolades. 
If you are hoping to watch the Golden Globe Awards they will be airing in Australia on March 1st on Foxtel's Fox8 and this years hosts will be comedians Tina Fey and Amy Poehler. And yes, of course I will watching the event, not frocked up with a full face of makeup but probably in my PJ's with a cuppa tea and a Tim Tam in hand. But don't worry if you can't make it to see the awards my friends, I'll be posting the results on Spicywatch.com for you all anyway! However, until then check out the amazing nominations list; hopefully you too will be able to see some of these incredible offerings before the big event in March.

MA RAINEY'S BLACK BOTTOM 
Release Date: 2020
Rating: M
Running Time: 94 mins 

An American drama directed by George C. Wolfe, written by Ruben Santiago-Hudson and based on the play of the same name by August Wilson. Steeped in soulful blues music and firmly focused on the racial tensions of the 1920's, Ma Rainey's Black Bottom delivers in an affecting and original way. 
It's 1927 and the highly regraded blues singer Ma Rainey has agreed to a recording of her music at Paramount studios in Chicago. However, Ma is determined to make the producers work for the privilege of recording her music and her four piece band struggle to keep things, and themselves, together as the session progresses.
Viola Davis gives an Oscar worthy performance as Ma Rainey, demonstrating her incredible range and diversity as an actor. And she is strongly supported by the late Chadwick Boseman who also shines brightly onscreen as Ma's trumpet player with great aspirations, Levee Green. 
This film is a wonderful tribute to the real life Georgia blues legend Ma Rainey, or 'Mother of Blues' as she was affectionately known but more than that, it accurately exposes the terrible discriminations and manipulation of the Black music culture in America. 

FINAL SAY: They don't care nothin' about me.
