Perhaps a message from the Golden Globes to the nationalists of this country?
Don't get me wrong. That film is glorious, and it is sad it couldn't be up for Best Picture. It deserves everything it wins. I think it was only up for these three (screenplay, foreign language film, and director).

Interested to see what the Oscars do with it.

The oddity will not be being nominated in the Best Picture category, even though it is not an English-language film, but that it was released by Netflix on streaming (as well as in theaters).
Roma totally deserved every award it won tonight because of its cinematic virtues. That it is set in Mexico City among working class (and bourgeois) characters is a bonus.

I think the Academy and other award organizations need to get over the theatre part and recognize that streaming is a thing that is here to stay. The Golden Globes doesn't make the TV shows be on broadcast channels.
