Each year the Hollywood Foreign Press Association recognizes outstanding achievements in film and American television. For 2016, La La Land, a musical romantic drama directed by Damien Chazelle, led all nominees with seven nominations, while several prestige television productions including Atlanta and The Crown also received widespread recognition.
The 74th Golden Globe Awards were broadcast live on January 8, 2017, from The Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, hosted by Jimmy Fallon. La La Land swept all seven of its categories, including Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy, Best Director, and Best Screenplay for Damien Chazelle. Television honors were distributed among Atlanta, The Crown, The Night Manager, and The People v. O. J. Simpson: American Crime Story.
La La Land's seven wins became the most by any film in Golden Globe Awards history, generating substantial awards-season momentum ahead of the Academy Awards. Meryl Streep, honored with the Cecil B. DeMille Lifetime Achievement Award, delivered a widely discussed speech that drew significant media attention beyond the ceremony itself.
