Whos responsible for Golden Globe nominations and votes?
That’d be the Hollywood Foreign Press Association — a group of 90 international journalists who report on the U.S. film industry. The HFPA represents over 55 countries outside the U.S., and new membership admittance is restricted to five per year (with MPAA accreditation and yearly clip submissions required to maintain status). Every awards show has its own exclusive voting base — therefore, the Globes’ viewpoint is unique in that its nominations and winners are chosen by foreign journalists.
