Acara penganugerahan Golden Globe Awards ke-72 telah dilaksanakan pagi ini waktu Indonesia. Acara yang dilaksanakan di Beverly Hilton Hotel, California ini kembali dipandu oleh duo Tina Fey dan Amy Poehler. Beberapa kejutan terjadi di ajang penghargaan ini, seperti The Grand Budapest Hotel yang mengalahkan Birdman di kategori Best Motion Picture - Comedy or Musical. How to Train Your Dragon 2 yang mengalahkan the LEGO Movie di kategor film animasi, Amy Adams yang menjadi aktris terbaik di kategori Comedy or Musical.
Walau begitu, beberapa nama yang sudah diprediksi akan menjadi pemenang juga terpilih, seperti Boyhood sebagai Best Motion Picture - Drama, Richard Linklater terpilih sebagai Sutradara Terbaik (kami lebih memilih Alejandro G. Inarritu), Michael Keaton di kategori Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture - Comedy or Musical, serta Julianne Moore di kategori Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture - Drama.
Salah satu kejutan manis adalah terpilihnya Eddie Redmayne sebagai aktor terbaik di kategori Motion Picture - Drama. Redmayne kini menjadi kandidat kuat di kategori Best Actor yang dipenuhi nama-nama dengan akting luar biasa. Di ajang Oscar, Redmayne harus bersaing dengan Michael Keaton yang penampilannya di film Birdman merupakan sebuah penampilan terbaik sepanjang karirnya.
Di lini televisi, kejutan terjadi saat Gina Rodriguez di kategori Best Performance by an Actress in a TV Series - Comedy or Musical. Rodriguez mengalahkan beberapa nama veteran seperti Lena Dunham (Girls), Edie Falco (Nurse Jackie), dan Julia Louis-Dreyfus (Veep). Selain di genre komedi, kejutan juga terjadi di genre drama dimana serial drama The Affair membawa pulang 2 tropi untuk serial drama terbaik dan aktris terbaik (Ruth Wilson). Tanpa bermaksud mengecilkan nama-nama dan serial tersebut, hasil ini seolah menjadi pembuktian bahwa HFPA selaku penyelenggara Golden Globe Awards memang lebih suka/cenderung memberikan penghargaan kepada serial-serial baru dibandingkan nama-nama lama yang sudah berjalan beberapa musim.
Walau begitu, bukan berarti persaingan di lini televisi tahun ini tidak ketat. Di kategori Mini-Series or Motion Picture Made for Television dua serial antologi Fargo dan true Detective bersaing menjadi yang terbaik. Namun, True Detective yang merupakan salah satu tayangan TV terbaik tahun 2014, akhirnya harus mengakui keunggulan Fargo di dua kategori, aktor terbaik yang dimenangkan oleh Billy Bob-Thornton, dan Best Mini-Series or Motion Picture Made for Television.
