Steven Spielberg wins best director at 2023 Golden Globes

The Golden Globes made their post-scandal comeback on Tuesday, after spending a year off the air, with Stephen Spielberg winning best director, and his film The Fablemans earning the award for best motion picture, drama.

Live from the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, Hollywood's booziest award show was packed with actors celebrating the best of television and film. 

The night kicked off with host Jerrod Carmichael knocking on the show's past scandals and lack of diversity at the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA).

Hollywood's Golden Globe Awards are trying to come back from a major scandal over a lack of diversity, bringing in 21 new voting members, six of whom are Black. But critics say those changes don’t seem to be reflected in this year’s nominations.

In 2021, a Los Angeles Times investigation revealed the HFPA's had no Black members, and faced other allegations including voters being influenced by studios. Stars boycotted the show and actor Tom Cruise returned his three awards.

NBC pulled the awards off the air — and last year winners were announced on Twitter. 

Tuesday's top winners included Everything Everywhere All at Once, The Banshees of Inisherin and Abbott Elementary. 

Ke Huy Quan of Everything Everywhere All at Once picked up the first award of the evening for actor in a supporting role in any motion picture. 

"For so many years I was afraid I had nothing more to offer... I would never surpass what I achieved as a kid," Quan said, referring to his role as a child actor in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.

"Thankfully more than 30 years later two guys thought of me, they remembered that kid and they gave me an opportunity to try again," he said in his acceptance speech, thanking the film's two directors.
