La La Land, Damien Chazelle’s tribute to the Golden Age of American musicals, leads the Golden Globe nominations with seven nods, including for best musical/comedy film and for its two star actors.
Moonlight, Manchester By The Sea and Florence Foster Jenkins followed with six, five and four nominations respectively.
The announcements will give the nominees a welcome boost going into the race for February’s Oscars, with the influential Screen Actors Guild nominations to come soon.
The best motion picture drama nominees are Mel Gibson’s war movie Hacksaw Ridge, heist thriller Hell Or High Water, family dramas Lion and Manchester By The Sea and coming-of-age story Moonlight.
La La Land will face competition from 20th Century Women, Deadpool, Florence Foster Jenkins, and Sing Street in the race for best comedy or musical film.
Although more high-profile than the Screen Actors Guild Awards, the Golden Globes are seen as less of an indicator of Oscars glory, as a relatively small group of non-US journalists – the Hollywood Foreign Press Association – chooses the winners, rather than the industry itself.
On the television front, FX true crime anthology The People V. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story led with five nominations.
AMC crime drama The Night Manager was close behind with four nominations, while Black-ish, The Crown, The Night Of, This Is Us and Westworld grabbed three each.
HBO comfortably led the television nominations with 14. The 74th Golden Globe Awards will air in the United States live from Beverly Hills on Jan 8, with talk show host Jimmy Fallon presenting.
