Sam Rockwell Praises Co-Star Frances McDormand as 'A Force of Nature' in Golden Globes Acceptance
Numerous presenters and award winners touched on the subject of female empowerment in their speeches, making clear that there needed to be a continued effort to strive towards equality of the sexes.
Though it bills itself as Hollywood's biggest party, the Golden Globes struck a slightly more formal, Oscar-like tone, complete with moments of appreciation for movie legends.
Laura Dern, a supporting actress victor for "Big Little Lies", said: "May we teach our children that speaking out without retribution is our culture's new north star". "The Handmaid's Tale" was named Best Television Series - Drama, and in the musical or comedy category, "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel" won. It was developed in the wake of hundreds of women alleging sexual misconduct against a slew of notable men in entertainment and other industries, a trend set off after reports about similar accusations against Hollywood magnate Harvey Weinstein.
Accepting the award for best supporting actress for I, Tonya, Janney paid tribute to disgraced figure skater Tonya Harding, thanking her for "sharing her story". Closing out the ceremony, Streisand wondered aloud why she has been the only woman to win a Golden Globe for best director, for Yentl in 1984. Star Daniel Kaluuya was nominated for best comedy actor and the movie was also nominated for best comedy film.
James Franco won the best actor in a comedy or musical motion picture for his role in "The Disaster Artist", and German drama "In the Fade" won best foreign film.
Newcomer "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel" picked up Globes for best actress in a comedy and best TV series, comedy, though the show was up against stalwarts like "Black-ish" and "Master of None".
Women and men supporting the organization arrived to the Globes wearing black, many accessorizing with a pin featuring the Time's Up logo.

Sterling K. Brown was the only television network actor to take home a Globe, earning the prize for drama series actor for his work in NBC's "This is Us".
Actress Reese Witherspoon, one of the key players in the anti-sexual harassment coalition Time's Up Now, which encouraged the fashion "blackout", said the black dresses showed solidarity following a "difficult year" in Hollywood. "What I appreciate so much about this is that I'm being seen for who I am and being appreciated for who I am, and it makes it that much more hard to dismiss me or dismiss anybody who looks like me".
Though the atmosphere was still buoyant and positive, the usually superficial red carpet had unusual exchanges.
"I've done a lot of indies", he said of his career.
It was just another illustration of how the "MeToo" reckoning that has plowed through Hollywood has upended awards season.
Meyers addressed the scandal from the top, taking jabs at the conspicuously absent Weinstein and Kevin Spacey, who also faced accusations of harassment.
But the night belonged to women.
