Announcing the nominees for Best Director alongside Ron Howard, Portman delivered a little bit of truth-a reminder that men still dominate in award shows' biggest categories. Before reading out the names she quipped, "And now, here are the all male nominees". She's widely considered among the top candidates for a directing Oscar, and her film won the Globe for best film musical or comedy.
In his speech, del Toro specifically called out the women who worked on The Shape of Water with him, including Golden Globe nominees Octavia Spencer and Sally Hawkins.
Portman also shared a video explaining why she's wearing black.
