Oscar winning actress Frances (Fargo) McDormand earned her first best actress Golden Globe for the revenge drama, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri on Sunday night.
As she thanked the indie studio behind the film, in an odd moment, she was bleeped as she began to say “Fox Searchlight,” and as she recognized the “a tectonic shift in this industry’s power structure,” “shift” was also bleeped. When McDormand said “shite,” however, it went uncensored.
My favorite McDormand’s line was: “It was really great to be in this room tonight. Trust me, the women in this room here tonight are not here for the food. We are here for the work.”
The American actress beat out Jessica Chastain for “Molly’s Game,” Sally Hawkins for “The Shape of Water,” Meryl Streep for “The Post,” and Michelle Williams for “All the Money in the World.”
