Golden Globes preview: from Red Carpet to acceptance speech

The World

This Sunday, awards season officially kicks off with The 68th Annual Golden Globe Awards, which will be broadcast at 8 p.m. eastern time on NBC. Also known as the happiest awards show in Hollywood, the Globes is an event where alcohol is served throughout the night, TV stars and movie stars mingle, and comedies and dramas are given equal recognition. But in addition to the misbehaving, winning, and losing, what else should we be keeping our eyes on at this year’s ceremony?

Rafer Guzman and producer Kristen Meinzer have some tips. In addition to being the Takeaway’s movie contributor, Rafer is also a film critic for Newsday and co-host of The Takeaway’s Movie Date Podcast with Kristen.
