The Golden Globe Awards announced this year’s nominees Monday morning, with the continent-hopping musical film “Emilia Pérez” - about a brutal Mexican drug lord who becomes a woman, and all the drama that ensues - leading the pack with 10 nominations. Other leading movies include “The Brutalist” (seven nominations) and “Conclave” (six nominations). In TV categories, the Globes echoed this year’s Emmy Awards, handing the most nods to “The Bear” (five nominations), “Only Murders in the Building” (four nominations) and “Shogun” (four).

The annual awards - generally a slightly tipsier complement to the Oscars and Emmys - honor the best in movies and TV, at least according to tastes of the international entertainment journalists who make up the Golden Globe Foundation, the successor to the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. Will they choose a musical like “Emilia Pérez” or “Wicked?” Or echo the buzz that has greeted Mikey Madison’s performance in “Anora?” We’ll learn the results of their conclave on Jan. 5, when the Globes air live on CBS. They will also stream on Paramount Plus and be available on the CBS app.

Here is the full list of nominations.
