2 Response to Golden Globes 2019 winners: in which Freddie Mercury rises to everyone's surprise
Sounds like it was a mostly-good show then! And we got some surprises among the winners too, to shake things up. The Favourite was clearly not a favourite among the HFPA though, huh?
As for our predictions, you got 6 correct plus 6 alternates, while I got 8 correct and 3 alts! So pretty close. Kinda weird they went for Bohemian Rhapsody though, considering it didn't really get very good reviews (while A Star Is Born got great reviews, and was also a crowd-pleasing box office hit).
It's okay, you can take the win. The only thing we learned from this was what was Freddie Mercury may never die!
