He began by thanking his three sisters, his late father and his late mother, Leah Adler ( played by Michelle Williams in the film). Nominated 14 times by the Globes for best director, Spielberg also won the honor for the third time. For the fifth time, one of Spielberg’s films won a best picture Globe. The Globes’ would-be comeback ended like many Globes ceremonies before it: with a triumphant Spielberg. “Abbott Elementary,” “White Lotus” and “House of the Dragon” led the TV awards. Spielberg’s autobiographical coming-of-age film “The Fabelmans” won best drama film and the dark friendship tale “The Banshees of Inisherin,” captured best film, comedy or musical. The Golden Globes returned to the air Tuesday with a red carpet flush with celebrities, comedian Jerrod Carmichael as a hesitant emcee and top awards for Steven Spielberg’s “The Fabelmans” and Martin McDonagh’s “The Banshees of Inisherin,” as the beleaguered award show sought to rekindle its pre-pandemic and pre-scandal glamour.
