Beverly Hills, California — Timothée Chalamet won his first Golden Globe at Sunday’s ceremony for his performance in the table tennis odyssey “Marty Supreme.”
While Chalamet memorably won at the Screen Actors Guild Awards last year for “A Complete Unknown,” he had been winless in four previous Globes nominations.
“My dad instilled in me a spirit of gratitude growing up: Always be grateful for what you have,” said Chalamet. “It’s allowed me to leave this ceremony in the past empty handed, my head held high, grteful just to be here. I’d be lying if I didn’t say those moments didn’t make this moment that much sweeter.”
The win for Chalamet was one of many on Sunday that went to the favorites. That included two awards for the Oscar favorite “One Battle After Another”: Paul Thomas Anderson for screenplay and Teyana Taylor for best supporting female actor.
“To my brown sisters and little brown girls watching tonight, our softness is not a liability. Our depth is not too much. Our light does not need permission to shine. We belong in every room we walk into. Our voices matter and our dreams deserve space.”
Also as predicted: Best supporting actor went to Stellan Skarsgård for the Norwegian family drama “Sentimental Value.” It was the first major Hollywood movie award for the 74-year-old, a respected veteran actor who drew a standing ovation.
“I was not prepared for this because I, of course, thought I was too old,” said Skarsgård.
Rose Byrne won best female actor in a comedy or musical for her performance in the not especially funny A24 indie “If I Had Legs I’d Kick You.”
At the 83rd Golden Globes, Amy Poehler won the inaugural award for podcasting, “KPop Demons Hunters” triumphed in the best song category and Seth Rogen won a comically poignant award for his Hollywood satire “The Studio.”
For the first year, the Globes handed out a best podcast trophy. It went to “Good Hang,” the recently launched podcast by Poehler, who for years hosted the Globes with Tina Fey. Snoop Dogg presented the award.
“This is exactly how I pictured it: Snoop Dogg giving me the award,” said Poehler.
It was a fittingly odd moment for a Golden Globes that featured a very meta moment with Rogen winning best actor in a comedy series. “The Studio” memorably included an episode devoted to drama around a night at the Globes. (Sample line: “I remember when the red carpet of the Golden Globes actually stood for something.”)
“This is so weird,” Rogen said, chuckling. “We just pretended to do this. And now it’s happening.”
