See the winners of the 78th annual Golden Globe Awards, hosted by Tina Fey and Amy Poehler._ by [TIME Staff](https://time.com/author/time-staff/) ## TIME Staff Mar 1, 2021 1:01 AM UTC by [TIME Staff](https://time.com/author/time-staff/) ## TIME Staff Mar 1, 2021 1:01 AM UTC The [78th Golden Globes](https://time.com/5935604/golden-globes-nominations-snubs-surprises-2021/) had at least one familiar element: Amy Poehler and Tina Fey co-hosted the ceremony, for a fourth time. Pretty much everything else reflected the strangeness and difficulty of the past year, from the fact that the hosts were on opposite coasts to the intimate and sometimes technically glitchy acceptance speeches delivered from hotel rooms and living room couches. As the first major televised awards show of 2021, the ceremony, postponed from its usual early January date, set the tone for what is sure to be an unusual journey over the coming months, culminating in a late-April Oscars. The ceremony also arrived as the Hollywood Foreign Press Association is mired, not for the first time, in [various](https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/race/golden-globes-hfpa-says-we-understand-that-we-need-to-bring-in-black-members) [controversies](https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/business/story/2021-02-21/hfpa-golden-globes-2021). Heading into the ceremony, Netflix had the most nominations—with 22 in the film categories, thanks to movies like [_Mank_ ](https://time.com/5908264/mank-review-netflix/)and [_The Trial of the Chicago 7_](https://time.com/5900527/trial-of-the-chicago-7-true-story/), and 20 on the TV side, more than half of which come from _The Crown_ and _Ozark_. [_Nomadland_ ](https://time.com/5938982/nomadland-true-story/)filmmaker Chloé Zhao won Best Director, making her the second woman ever to win the award (the first was Barbra Streisand, in 1984), with _Nomadland_ winning Best Motion Picture – Drama. [Chadwick Boseman](https://time.com/5884740/chadwick-boseman-obit/) won a posthumous award for his turn in [_Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom_](https://time.com/5922386/ma-raineys-black-bottom-review-netflix/), which his widow Taylor Simone Ledward accepted on his behalf in a moving, emotional speech. Sacha Baron Cohen took the stage multiple times for wins for _Borat Subsequent Moviefilm_, and _The Crown_ took home a slew of awards. Here are the winners of the 2021 Golden Globe Awards, updating live throughout the evening. **Read More:** [_The 11 Weirdest Golden Globe Nominations—and What Should Have Been Nominated
