Oppenheimer has a longer lead-up, cultural stranglehold, starry cast and will make for some attention-grabbing headlines come Monday.
Past Lives should win the Best film (drama) award as it brought more admiration than all-out love while other less obvious Globe nominees are remarkable for their inclusion alone.

It's slightly easier to see Oppenheimer snag a victory

Deception

The article is deceptive in several ways. Firstly, it presents itself as an objective analysis of the Golden Globe Awards when in reality it is a promotional piece for Euronews Culture's coverage of the event. Secondly, while the author claims to be providing predictions and opinions on who should win each category, they are actually promoting their own show (Barbie) by suggesting that it will likely take home several awards. Thirdly, the article contains a number of biased statements such as
Barbenheimer dominate proceedings, thereby heralding an upcoming Oscar battle for the ages?
Barbie is the most nominated at this year's Globes and was last year's biggest box office hit.
The new relaunch as a for-profit organisation hopefully means fewer ethical SNAFUs and no more diversity issues.
Poor Things, Yorgos Lanthimos’ “diabolical fuckfest of a puzzle,” should really win this one.

The author also makes the claim that Oppenheimer will emerge triumphant, which is a prediction based on personal bias rather than objective analysis. Additionally, the article contains several examples of dichotomous depictions such as 'Barbenheimer dominate proceedings' and 'Poor Things should really win this one'.
