The Golden Globes delivered a powerful, concerted message about and from women, addressing sexual harassment and gender inequity. Yet they also highlighted the at-times awkward challenge of tackling such sobering issues within an award-show format.
Despite the sexual-harassment shadow that hung over an event where accused predator Harvey Weinstein once held sway. The show went on and tried to find a balance.
Seth Meyers, who hosted the ceremony, set just the right tone in his opening monologue — one that focused on the harassment issue as well as national politics; Harvey Weinstein and President Trump in the same monologue; I wonder if that was deliberate? Naturally, President Trump didn’t come away unscathed.
