Golden Globes 2018: "Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri" wins big

The 75th Golden Globe Awards kicked off with a political tone even before the show began. Actors and actresses wore black to protest sexual harassment, and several actresses, including Meryl Streep and Amy Poehler, walked the red carpet with activists to shift the focus back on survivors and solutions, and away from perpetrators of sexual misconduct.

The Golden Globe Awards, hosted by Seth Meyers, took place at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, California.

Here's what took place during the show, as it happened:

There are so many films out there that are so good that are directed by women. I'm so proud to stand in a room with people that speak out against gender inequality, sexual harassment and the pettiness that has poisoned our politics."
