Jane Campion's film The Power of the Dog won three awards at the Golden Globes, known as the precursor to the Academy Awards. At the 79th Golden Globe Awards held on the 10th (Korean time), the film was named Best Motion Picture ? Drama, Best Director (Jane Campion), and Best Supporting Actor (Kodi Smit-McPhee). The Power of the Dog is a work directed by Campion, who was the first female director to win the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival with The Piano (1993), and this is her first film in 12 years since Bright Star (2009). Wrapped in the guise of a Western, it intricately portrays the inner emotions and feelings of its characters and won the Best Director award at last year's Venice International Film Festival.



Steven Spielberg's first musical film, West Side Story, won Best Motion Picture ? Musical or Comedy. The leading actor awards went to Nicole Kidman for Being the Ricardos and Will Smith for King Richard (both in the Drama category), and Rachel Zegler for West Side Story and Andrew Garfield for Tick, Tick... Boom! (Musical or Comedy category). Ariana DeBose from West Side Story shared the Supporting Actor award with Kodi Smit-McPhee. The Best Screenplay award went to Kenneth Branagh for Belfast, Best Animated Feature to Encanto, Best Original Score to Hans Zimmer for Dune, and Best Original Song to "No Time to Die" from No Time to Die. The Best Foreign Language Film award was given to Ryusuke Hamaguchi's Drive My Car.
