Jane Campion’s Western drama, The Power of the Dog was named the Best Motion Picture Drama, and satirical black comedy, Succession emerged as the Best Drama Series at the 79th edition of the Golden Globe awards, which was not a starry affair, owing to a Hollywood boycott.
The Power of the Dog also won the golden gong for the Best Director-Motion Picture and rising star Kodi Smit-McPhee received a trophy for Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role. Succession, a much loved HBO series, further took home two more awards for series stars Jeremy Strong and Sarah Snook in Best Performance by an Actor in a TV series. The ceremony was held as a private, no broadcast or livestream event sans audience and red carpet appearances at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles in a scaled-down ceremony.
