Initially shocked that she never got this until now, but it makes sense. She did have that long hiatus from acting and came back stronger with her roles and activism, so the timing is perfect.

I wonder if we will see Dolly Parton and/or Lily Tomlin involved in the presentation.

As she should! Her performance is ‘Klute’ is one of the best time and her dedication to activism over the past 50+ years is amazing.

Sort of disappointed. They should have saved a legend like Fonda for a year when they can have the full ceremony and gone with someone more marginal this year.

Seems sad that she may have to have her tribute done by people on skype.

(Have they said anything about how the Globes will be handled this year? In person? LA just got out of lockdown yesterday and that was just because the governor is facing a recall. Still pretty bad and likely to get worse now.)

ugh I didn’t even think about this! Fonda is too iconic to be spared the fanfare of an in person ceremony.

Really happy about this choice. I agree that it would be disappointing if she can’t receive it in person. I bet money that Dolly Parton and Lily Tomlin will present it to her

Carrey and Cruise are pretty young. Close is someone I believe will get it soon. I think Dame Fonda is an excellent choice. She hasn’t done anything worth mentioning for decades because the opportunities aren’t there.

Best Actor :
Riz Ahmed for Sound Of Metal
Delroy Lindo for Da 5 Bloods
Gary Oldman for Mank

Best Actress:
Andra Day for The United States vs Billie Holiday
Vanessa Kirby for Pieces of a Woman
