The Los Angeles–based movie musical about creative dreamers won in every category in which it was nominated on Sunday night, totaling seven awards in all — which also meant fellow critically acclaimed films including “Manchester by the Sea,” “Loving,” “Fences,” “Lion” and “Moonlight,” among others, went underrepresented in the evening’s wins. This achievement for “La La Land” breaks the record for most Golden Globes won by a film. Previously, the record for most Globes won by a film was a five-way tie between “Doctor Zhivago” (1965), “Love Story” (1970), “The Godfather” (1972), “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest” (1975), and “A Star is Born” (1976). Each film had won five awards. Deadline noted that “Cuckoo’s Nest” also marked the last time, before “La La Land,” where a film won in each category it was up for. Among the honors given to “La La Land” were Best Director, Motion Picture and Best Screenplay for director Damien Chazelle. Film leads Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone nabbed top honors for acting in the Musical or Comedy categories.</s>"La La Land" steamrolled through a Jimmy Fallon-hosted Golden Globes that mixed the expected, Champagne-sipping Hollywood celebration with often-voiced concern over president-elect Donald Trump.

The independent distributor A24 also scored with a surprise win for “Moonlight,” a critical darling that won for best dramatic film.

In the television categories, FX was the big winner for the evening, with two awards each for its miniseries “The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story” and freshman comedy series “Atlanta.”

Netflix also scored big with “The Crown,” which won for best dramatic series and lead actress Claire Foy, while AMC’s series “The Night Manager” won three acting awards.

In the feature film categories, the only major studio to take home multiple awards was Sony, which won two statuettes for the French film “Elle,” released by its Sony Pictures Classics division. The psychological thriller, directed by Paul Verhoeven, won for foreign film and lead dramatic actress Isabelle Huppert.

Disney won one award for “Zootopia,” for animated film. Also taking one award each was Paramount, for supporting actress Viola Davis in “Fences”; Universal, for supporting actor Aaron Taylor-Johnson in “Nocturnal Animals,” which was released by Focus Features; and Amazon, for lead dramatic actor Casey Affleck in “Manchester by the Sea.”

Lionsgate, based in Santa Monica, has had a notable year with “La La Land,” which has so far grossed $51.7 million domestically as the studio has gradually expanded its release since it opened in December. The movie, which highlighted a number of vintage locations in Los Angeles, won for best comedic or musical film, as well as for its lead actors, Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone. Writer-director Damien Chazelle won two awards, while the soundtrack also won two awards.

A24, the New York indie banner founded four years ago, has found critical success with “Moonlight,” an understated drama about a gay black man’s coming of age that has accumulated numerous critics prizes and has so far grossed $13.3 million in limited release.

Why Aaron Taylor-Johnson’s supporting actor win is an upset (sort of)

Janelle Monae, Pablo Larrain rhapsodize about the power of women, reflected in the Golden Globes nominees</s>EXCLUSIVE: Oooh La La! Following a clean sweep for Lionsgate’s La La Land at the Golden Globes last night, the musical romancer from Damien Chazelle are finding its ticket sales popping as the studio will roll out into over 100 Imax screens on Friday as part of its nationwide expansion into about 1,800 to 2,000 theaters in the U.S. According to Fandango, the picture has topped ticket sales for the first time today above all other pictures in the marketplace since it opened four weeks ago. Not surprisingly, the film’s soundtrack has climbed to No. 1 on both iTunes and Amazon as Lionsgate seems to be catching lighting in a bottle.

This coming weekend is the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday which bodes well for moviegoing. Lionsgate has its hands full — a high-class problem — booking both La La Land and another critically acclaimed film, Patriots Day which is going wide.

La La Land, which began its rollout on Dec. 9 in limited release before going wider on Dec. 16, soon became the highest-grossing limited/prestige release of 2016. The film expanded to double its previous screen count this weekend (to 1,515 sites) to bring its gross up to $51.7M through this weekend.

It will enjoy at least a week’s run on Imax before Paramount’s Vin Diesel-starring actioner xXx: The Return of Xander Cage takes hold of the big screens.

Imax will continue to play Rogue One: A Star Wars Story in the majority of its theaters, but 100 to maybe 150 locations will now be dedicated to La La Land. The decision to do so was made awhile ago and it appears to be a fortuitous idea, given that La La Land won Best Picture, Director, Actor, Actress, Score, Song and Screenplay at hte Globes last night.

Rogue One has been playing for the past four weeks and has been Imax’s longest playing release over the last 12 months. Rogue One has done well per screen. The film, which has collected a worldwide total of $914.1M after four weeks in release, was toppled from its No. 1 perch domestically this past weekend by Fox’s drama Hidden Figures.

Not all movies are made for the Imax screens and there was a concern as to how La La Land would do in the transfer. Prior to the decision being made, all involved did a test to see if the images and sound would transfer over. Since it was filmed in Cinemascope, it worked and flawlessly.

After xXx‘s run don’t be surprised to see both Rogue One and La La Land to pop back into Imax theaters as we heard that is a real possibility. That would put it onto those screens Superbowl weekend, Feb. 5.

Internationally, La La Land opened in December in Imax theaters in South Korea and did a big $20K per screen. The film will continue rolling out in other international territories on Imax over the next several months.</s>came into the Golden Globes as the big favorite, and it started out four-for-four.

At the 74th annual Golden Globes on Sunday in Beverly Hills, California, was steamrolling through a Jimmy Fallon-hosted ceremony that mixed the expected Hollywood celebration with often-voiced concern over president-elect Donald Trump.

Damien Chazelle's Los Angeles musical, which had a leading seven nominations, won best actor for Ryan Gosling, best screenplay for Chazelle's script, best score (Justin Hurwitz) and best song for .

"This isn't the first time I've been mistaken for Ryan Reynolds," Gosling joked, looking at his fellow nominee, the Deadpoolstar. In one of the evening's more emotional acceptance speeches, Gosling dedicated his award to his late brother-in-law, Juan Carlos Mendes.

"While I was singing and dancing and playing piano and having one of the best experiences I've ever had on a film, my lady was raising our daughter, pregnant with our second and trying to help her brother fight his battle with cancer," said Gosling, referring to his partner, Eva Mendes.

The Golden Globes got off to a rocky start, with a broken teleprompter initially froze Fallon. "Cut to Justin Timberlake, please," implored a desperately improvising Fallon. It was the second fiasco for Globes producer Dick Clark Productions, which presented the infamous Mariah Carey flub on New Year's Eve.

The Tonight Showhost started the show with a cold open ode to La La Landin a lavish sketch more typical of the Academy Awards than the Globes. Fallon did a version of the film's opening dance scene, with starry cameos from Timberlake, previous Globes host Tina Fey, Amy Adams and the white Ford Bronco of The People v. O.J. Simpson."

In a more truncated monologue, Fallon's sharpest barbs weren't directed at the stars in the room (as was the style of frequent host Ricky Gervais) but president-elect Trump. He compared Trump to the belligerent teenage king Joffrey of "Games of Thrones." Fallon's first line (at least once the teleprompter was up) was introducing the Globes as "one of the few places left where America still honors the popular vote."

That, though, isn't quite true. The Hollywood Foreign Press Association, a collection of 85 members, has its own methods of selecting winners. Best supporting actress winner Viola Davis, the co-star of Denzel Washington's August Wilson adaptation Fencesalluded to the group's reputation for being wined and dined.

"I took all the pictures, went to luncheon," said Davis, to knowing chuckles through the ballroom, as she clutched her award. "But it's right on time."

While Davis' march to an Oscar seems virtually assured, other picks were more idiosyncratic.

The British actor Aaron Taylor-Johnson took best supporting actor for his performance in Tom Ford's Nocturnal Animals." It was a surprise that Taylor-Johnson was even nominated, so his win over favorites Mahersala Ali from Moonlightand Jeff Bridges from Hell or High Waterwas a shock.

There were expected winners, like "The People v. O.J. Simpson" taking best miniseries, as well as an award for Sarah Paulson. But other winners were less prepared. Donald Glover looked visibly surprised when his FX series "Atlanta" won best comedy series over heavyweights like "Veep" and "Transparent."

"I really want to thank Atlanta and all the black folks in Atlanta," said Glover. "I couldn't be here without Atlanta."

Hugh Laurie, star of The Night Manager, looked even more surprised when he won best supporting actor in a limited series or TV film over the likes of John Travolta (The People v. O.J. Simpson) and John Lithgow (The Crown).

Laurie was one of the few early winners to pepper his acceptance speech with comments about Trump. "I accept this award on behalf of psychopathic billionaires everywhere," he said. The Night Managerwon two more awards, including best actor for Tom Hiddleston.

Paul Verhoeven's Ellewon best foreign language film. Disney's Zootopiatook best animated feature. Other winners incluced Tracee Ellis Ross ("Black-ish") and Billy Bob Thornton (Goliath).
