Movie 'Minari' Nominated for Golden Globe Best Foreign Language Film
[Asia Economy New York=Correspondent Baek Jong-min] The American film 'Minari,' which tells the story of a Korean immigrant family, has been nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Foreign Language Film.
According to CNN, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA), which organizes the Golden Globes, announced on the 3rd (local time) that Minari has been nominated for Best Foreign Language Film at the 78th Golden Globe Awards.
'Minari' will compete for the award against other nominees such as Denmark's 'Another Round,' the France-Guatemala co-production 'La Llorona,' Italy's 'Life Ahead,' and the US-France co-production 'Two of Us.'
Minari did not make the nominee list in other categories where nominations were expected, such as Best Supporting Actress. Lead actress Youn Yuh-jung, who has won Best Actress awards at many film festivals for Minari, was not nominated for the Golden Globes.
'Minari' is a work by Korean-American director Lee Isaac Chung, depicting the story of a Korean family who moved to Arkansas, USA, in the 1980s and started a farm.
Korean-American actors Steven Yeun, Han Ye-ri, and Youn Yuh-jung, who appeared in the popular American drama 'The Walking Dead,' starred in the film.
