Natalie Portman points at all-male Best Director nominees at Golden Globes
Los Angeles
January 8, 2018
In a sharp remark, Natalie Portman called out the "all-male
nominees" of the Best Director category at the 75th Golden Globe Awards where
talk on woman power was at the centre stage.
Portman took the stage here
on Sunday with actor-filmmaker Ron Howard to present the award. After Howard
introduced the category they would be presenting, Portman remarked: "And here
are the all-male nominees."
Guillermo del Toro, Martin McDonagh,
Christopher Nolan, Ridley Scott and Steven Spielberg were contenders for Best
Director in a year which had female directors like Patty Jenkins ("Wonder
Woman"), Greta Gerwig ("Lady Bird") and Dee Rees ("Mudbound".
Toro, who
looked a tad flustered, won the award for "The Shape of Water", a Cold War-era
monster movie and remixed fairy tale musical, starring Sally Hawkins and Michael
Shannon.
