Golden Globe® Foreign-Language Nominee Series

January 10 – 15 at the Egyptian and Aero Theatres

Co-presented with the Hollywood Foreign Press Association.

The Golden Globes were born in early 1944, when a number of movie stars were invited to 20th Century Fox Studios to find out what films a small group of foreign journalists had found to be especially worthwhile during the preceding year. The journalists, all members of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, decided to undertake this selection as an annual event. By 1962, the general public was invited to the celebration when KTTV Los Angeles first televised the awards.

The Cinematheque is please to host this series of screenings devoted to the films and filmmakers nominated for a Golden Globe in the Best Foreign-Language Film category. The five nominated films will be screened and then spotlighted at a panel discussion with the directors of the selected films at the Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood on Saturday, January 15, at 1:00 PM. Parking is free.
