Not all great movies and shows managed to take home prizes at the 82nd Golden Globe Awards, also known as the Golden Globes 2025. Films like Emilia Perez and The Brutalist dominated the evening, winning multiple major awards, from Best Film categories to acting honours. On the television front, the spotlight was on FX/Hulu’s Shogun, Max’s Hacks, and Netflix’s Baby Reindeer. Other notable wins included Conclave for Best Screenplay, Wicked for the Cinematic and Box Office Achievement award, and The Bear, which secured an absent Jeremy Allen White another Best Actor in a Musical or Comedy (Series) win. Golden Globes 2025 Winners: ‘Emilia Pérez’, ‘The Brutalist’, ‘Shogun’, ‘Hacks’ Win Big at 82nd Golden Globe Awards; ‘All We Imagine As Light’ Goes Empty-Handed – See Full List!

However, some highly anticipated projects left empty-handed despite multiple nominations. Sean Baker’s Anora, for instance, received five nominations but failed to win any awards. Indian cinephiles were particularly disappointed as Payal Kapadia’s critically acclaimed All We Imagine as Light—nominated for Best Director and Best Motion Picture (Non-English Language)—went home without a single win, despite its exceptional storytelling and brave odds.

In this feature, we look at such movies and shows that got multiple nominations but didn't grab any wins.
