The 78th Golden Globes Awards 2021 were on NBC on Sunday, February 28, 2021 at 8pm ET.
The ceremony is normally held in January, but was delayed while everyone adapted to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Film awards are great fun for their red carpet presentations, acceptance speeches, for discovering the year’s best films and usually a few great movies you didn’t know about.
