Who Won the Most Golden Globe Awards?
One film has won seven Golden Globe Awards, setting a remarkable record. In addition, two films have won six Golden Globe Awards each, showcasing their excellence in multiple categories. A total of ten films have taken home five Golden Globe Awards. Among these, La La Land stands out for its perfect sweep, winning all seven Golden Globe Awards for which it was nominated, cementing its place in history.
How are Golden Globe Winners Chosen?
The Golden Globe Awards are voted on by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA), which has been honoring films since 1943 and added television awards in 1961. Each member receives a ballot with a list of eligible films, and they rank their choices from 1 to 5. To be eligible, a movie must have opened in the U.S. during the year. Ernst & Young tallies the votes, and members don’t know the nominations until they’re announced.
HFPA members attend screenings throughout the year, sometimes just for them or with other journalists. They also receive DVD screeners of eligible films to help with their votes. As interest in TV grew, especially with more shows being exported worldwide, the HFPA started honoring TV shows as well. With films and TV blending together more today, it makes sense to celebrate both in the Golden Globe Awards.
