Happy to see that The Color Purple made it in for Best Picture. And, shockingly, Saltburn! Nice to see that make an appearance too. Good on you, Critics Choice.
The directing category has six, like the Globes, so one has gotta go. We’ll be doing more analysis on this later today.
Barbie leads with a whopping 18, followed by Oppenheimer and Poor Things tied with 13. And Killers of the Flower Moon with 12.
