It was a proud night for the Irish as Colin Farrell, Martin McDonagh and The Banshees of Inisherin won big at the award ceremony held in Beverly Hills, California.

The Banshees of Inisherin, the latest film from acclaimed movie-maker Martin McDonagh, was the big winner at the Golden Globes 2023, earning three awards at the event held at The Beverly Hilton, Beverly Hills, California. McDonagh picked up Best Screenplay, while Colin Farrell earned Best Actor in a Musical or Comedy and the film itself winning Best Film - Music or Comedy.

“I never expect films to work or to find an audience, and when they do, it’s shocking to me,” Farrell said in his acceptance speech. “I owe you [Martin McDonagh] so much. You changed the trajectory of my life in ways that I will begrudgingly be grateful to you for the rest of my days.” The Banshee of Inisherin is the latest collaboration between the pair, following 2008’s In Bruges and 2012’s Seven Psychopaths.

Austin Butler’s incredible transformation into Elvis Presley in the self-titled biopic earned him the Best Actor in a Drama award, beating out perhaps the other public favourite during this award season, Brendan Fraser for his role in The Whale. “I owe this to a bold, visionary filmmaker who allowed me to take risks and I always knew I would be supported,” Butler said in his acceptance speech, acknowledging Baz Luhrmann - the director of Elvis.

The hyper-kinetic action/comedy Everything Everywhere All At Once was also a big winner during the ceremony, with Michelle Yeoh picking up Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy while Ke Huy Quan, who made his return to acting with the film, earned Best Supporting Actor in a Musical or Comedy. Guillermo Del Toro, an Oscar winner for 2017’s The Shape of Water, saw his animated adaptation of Pinocchio win Best Animated Film, while Stephen Speilberg’s semi-autobiographical movie, The Fablemans, earned the screen legend the Best Director award.

The ceremony, which acts as a barometer for the remaining award ceremonies throughout the calendar year, saw Jerrod Carmichael host for the first time which was warmly received by critics. However he did elicit controversy with a joke regarding Tom Cruise and Scientology.

“Backstage, I found these three Golden Globe awards that Tom Cruise returned. I think maybe we take these three things and exchange them for the safe return of Shelly Miscavige” he joked. Shelly Miscavige has not been seen in public since 2007 and Cruise, a known Scientologist, has been a member for 30 years
