With blockbuster films like Barbie, Oppenheimer and Killers of the Flower Moon as some of the Golden Globes’ biggest contenders, the foreign film ended up providing one of the night’s major surprises as it took home not one, but two awards.

The court must attempt to uncover the truth, but to do so, they must rely on the only other witness there: the couple’s blind son.

Awards season kicked off on Sunday (Jan. 7) with the Golden Globes, and by the end of the night, the heartwarming film had racked up two Golden Globe wins for actor in a musical or comedy (Paul Giamatti) as well as supporting actress in a motion picture (Da’vine Joy Randolph).
Taking place in 1970, the film follows Paul Hunham (Giamatti), a grouchy instructor at a New England prep school who remains on campus during Christmas break to supervise a handful of students with nowhere else to go. What he doesn’t expect is to form an unlikely bond with the school’s brainy yet troublemaking student Angus (Dominic Sessa), as well as the school’s head cook Mary Lamb (Randolph), who just lost her son to the Vietnam War.
Other cast members include Carrie Preston, Brady Hepner, Ian Dolley, Jim Kaplan, Michael Provost, Andrew Garman, Naheem Garcia, Stephen Thorne, Gillian Vigman and Tate Donovan.

Timothée Chalamet and Wonka topped the box office charts for the third time in its four weekends in theaters. Warner Bros.’ family-oriented musical added $14.4 million in ticket sales according to studio estimates Sunday (Jan. 7), bringing its total domestic grosses to $164.7 million.
“Wonka is following in the tradition of a film like The Greatest Showman,” said Paul Dergarabedian, the senior media analyst for Comscore. That Hugh Jackman musical opened under $9 million in Dec. of 2017 and went on to gross $435 million globally.
“Wonka is a perfect crowd pleaser released at the perfect time and it’s going to ride that wave into January,” Dergarabedian said. “It’s an opportune time for it to be in the marketplace.”
After finishing 2023 on a high note, 2024 is getting off to a slower start than last year, down around 16%, with the Universal/Blumhouse horror Night Swim as the only major new offering in theaters. The movie stars Wyatt Russell and Kerry Condon as a couple with a sinister, supernatural swimming pool.
Night Swim drew in an estimated $12 million in its first weekend in 3,250 theaters in North America against a reported $15 million production budget. Including international showings in 36 markets, Night Swim is heading towards a $17.7 million global debut.
“Not only did it perform really well at the box office, but it’s going to make us look at every swimming pool with a little more trepidation,” said Jim Orr, Universal’s head of domestic distribution.
Horror movies are largely critic-proof, but with fairly negative reviews and a C CinemaScore rating, it’s unlikely to repeat the viral success of last year’s demon doll movie M3GAN.
“We don’t have Avatar: The Way of Water, which totally dominated the box office a year ago, or M3GAN, which made that a bigger weekend,” said Dergarabedian. “But it’s a bit early to call it in terms of how the year is going to turn out.”
Warner Bros. and Universal placed third and fourth on the charts as well. Warner Bros.’ DC superhero movie Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom earned $10.6 million in its third weekend, bumping its domestic tally just over the $100 million mark. Universal’s animated Migration added $10.3 million, bringing its running domestic total to $77.8 million.
Sony’s Glen Powell and Sydney Sweeney romantic comedy Anyone But You landed in fifth place with $9.5 million, up 9% from last weekend. The movie has grossed $43.7 million to date.
Cineplexes are full of awards contenders, including The Color Purple, The Iron Claw and Poor Things, and the Golden Globes broadcast Sunday night might help spread awareness for those and other films.
“The Golden Globes are like a 3-hour infomercial for the industry,” Dergarabedian said. “There’s no downside to having a very high profile telecast that puts a spotlight on the movies.”
Estimated ticket sales for Friday through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian theaters, according to Comscore. Final domestic figures will be released Monday.
