Ung's first book has been criticized by members of the Cambodian community in the United States, a number of whom believe that it is more a work of fiction than an actual autobiography. She has also been accused of misrepresenting the Khmer race and playing on ethnic stereotypes for the purpose of self-aggrandizement and over-dramatization to increase sales and publicity.
Among the complaints that some Cambodians have about her works is that she was only five years old when the Khmer Rouge began its reign, and that she could not possibly have so vivid and detailed a memory of the events as they have been documented in her book. Her detractors also claim that, as a child of a Chinese mother and a Khmer father highly placed in the Phnom Penh government, she paints a very unfavorable picture of Khmer villagers.
There is a picture in First They Killed My Father that was supposedly taken "on a family trip to Angkor Wat" in 1973 or 1974. A civil war had been in progress in Cambodia since 1970 and the Khmer Rouge was in control of Siem Reap (the location of Angkor Wat) from 1973 onward. Critics state that it is not likely that Ung's family would be vacationing at that time in that region of Cambodia, that the picture was taken at Wat Phnom, which is in Phnom Penh, the capital of Cambodia, and that Ung's memory is therefore unreliable.

Brad is so handsome, he always looks better when he is slimmer and his beautiful cheek bone and bone structure are visible. He looks better now.
He should stop smoking if he really is into clean living.
Now if he could just get the kids away from that loony tunes
No wonder he looks great again now that Angie isn't around to suck the life and spirit out of him anymore.
Brad and Angelina relationship was a mistake, it shouldn't have happened. They belong to different worlds. Brad is classy, Angelina is gross. Now they end it for the best.
He looks great! It's as though the years have melted away, which is telling considering the strain he has been under with his family troubles. I hope he is reunited with his children soon, you can just tell how much he loves and dotes on them...and that he eventually finds a good woman. He's paid a high price for loving Ms. Jolie, he tried so hard to be everything she wanted in a partner. He seemed to let her have her head, which is why it all went south...good luck to him.
a man this gorgeous doesn't stay single. IT CAN BE DONE.
Call me Brad you gorgeous, he looks better than ever.
All he needs now is for the courts to give him his due as a father and restore proper access to his children. Delighted to see him looking so well again.
still the sexiest man alive
now he's taken about ten years off and looks amazing again
Brad looks fab. Best wishes to him. He deserves the best.
However, last year, Maddox, by then 14, persuaded them to make the film. “He was the one who just called it and said he was ready and that he wanted to work on it, which he did. He read the script, helped with notes, and was in the production meetings,” Jolie said.
Lol,She really knows how to spin a tale. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
I'd hate to be on set being directed by a 15 hormonal year old and this crazy woman. Poor Cambodians. I bet the boy will be in the credits.
Inside Brad Pitt's Relationship With Son Maddox
In a 2007 interview with Vogue, Jolie credited her children, "especially Maddox," with speeding up her relationship with the Ocean's Eleven actor. "There was a coming together of him and Brad," she told the magazine. "It's a big thing to bring together a child and a father. It had never crossed my mind that Mad was going to need a father -- certainly not that it would be this man I just met. Until, of course, I got to know Brad, and realized that he is naturally a wonderful father. And we left a lot of it up to Mad, and he took his time, and then made the decision one day."
"He just out of the blue called him Dad," she said. "It was amazing… That was probably the most defining moment, when he decided that we would all be a family."
It seems that Jolie allows the little man to decide a lot of things. I wonderif he decided they should no longer be a family?
I remember her spinning that story "we were sitting on the floor of a hotel room playing with cars and Maddox looked over at him and called him 'dad', at that moment, we decided we would be a family"...
I remember thinking what an idiot she is, the kid was probably just trying to say his name "Brad" and of course she used this an excuse to not tell the truth "we had a torrid affair and hooked up". Always the kids' idea.
It was 2005 when Jolie came out with the story, but the filming was in 2004; she claimed it "happened spontaneously" and they both looked at each other and "just knew....". One of those BS "romantic" stories she was feeding to the media; when I heard it I instantly thought "She's using her kid to manipulate him"
She's always been unstable-mentally that is. She played it off as being edgy.
Come on I'm a hetero man and Brad Pitt never looked bad a single day in his life.
You're goddamn right 👌❤
I feel like this headline is a bit of a stretch. I mean, come on. He's Brad Pitt. He'll always have mojo.
Why do people keep on going on about jennifer anniston for? Yeah he should have stayed with some1 he fell out inlove with and she didnt want kids because some of you lot idolise her? Smh...
Bless him. He HAS lost a lot of weight. There's nothing as heavy as a vindictive wife
hahaha even when this Angelina looks only like a mixture of bones with skin but her evilness is heavy xD
He probably couldn't keep up with Angelina's desire....
Angelina Jolie 2001 edition was fit and balanced, Angelina Jolie 2017 edition is batshit crazy! Feel sorry for Brad, I know his pain all too well...
Don't blame him after getting rid of that control freak Angelina
Brad Pitt is sure looking good, the stress on his face has gone. A new Brad😃
He's hot, hot, hot - always has been & always will be. Hope he & AJ will be able to sort things out so that the children can spend time with each of them. Whatever has gone wrong between them it's clearly obvious that both parents love & cherish their family
When he was with Angelina Jolie, he lived a life of a " Fish in a Bowl". With separation, he got his Freedom back so also his Mojo...He must be the most relieved man now...Angalina Jolie wanted to control and manipulate his life.. Alongwith her boobs, she has lost her man too..
Best thing is to get out of a damaging relationship , you gain your life back
Cos he got rid of her ....
He is fabulous, drop dead georgous. Angelina is a complete nut case. She should not try to turn the children against their father, bad thing to do and not let him see them over Christmas.
To me this man not only based on his likeable public persona or looks is a fine specimen of a man
Yummy! There is the hot Brad I love! So glad he got that woman out of his hair. Welcome back, handsome!
Did he ever not look great ?
Ummmm, when did he ever stop looking great??? LOL
Right?! Always and forever Team Brad!
He.s always looked great....
He looks great as always..
Probably getting rid of that moaning old bag helped
Yes he is.Always has and always will be❤ #TeamBradPitt!
The older he gets! The better he looks!!
Love Brad! ❤ stay strong
Always handsome
he most handsome man on earth 😍
He's hot before & after
He's been detoxed from poison
Brad is hot. He will find a hot young actress to have more kids with. Angelina is old, skinny as hell. She lost her looks already. I am rooting for Brad getting his kids back. Angelina is a selfish vile witch.
Brad is so handsome, he always looks better when he is slimmer and his beautiful cheek bone and bone structure are visible. He looks better now.
He was, he is and will always be handome!!
When did Brad not look great?
He's far better off without Jolie. She's the loser.
welcome back to his lovely self
Angelina here are some news for you: “you reap what you sow”
More like the ho went on a rampage when she saw the GG support he received, then Judy Smith intervened to ensure no further damage was done.
There hasn't been love for her in HW for years. Thanks to the awesome Scott Rudin, we have proof.
She's just laying low until she can come up with a new plan to out PR Brad. Psychopaths never stop until they feel they have won. I think that she will attempt to get as close to Brad Pitt again as she possibly can. Keeping your friends close but your enemies closer is an old trick. The problem for her is that she treated the people around her so terribly that she doesn't have any friends except the loons and well paid employees. Anyone she approaches at this point in her game, she likely considers a pawn in her plan, an enemy, or a potential enemy.
Exactly! Now Scott Rudin has lots of love in HW, especially after his epic rant against HO was revealed! He only said what everyone's been thinking for years!
At this point she will get even more ridiculous in her attempts to destroy him. But by listening to and heeding what his attorneys and advisors have told him to do Pitt is in a great position. I have said that he was playing the smart long game rather than responding to her provocations. It has borne fruit for him. The drug tests and supervised visitations are helping him tremendously and he looks better for being clean and sober.
He looks even better without sick lady!!!!!!!!! Good luck Brad!!!!
brad is so handsome😍
He looked even hotter to me!
He is a beautiful man!
I think he looks great! Much better now!
Much better without her ♡
Brad looks better then I have seen him in years!!! ❤❤
That damn Angelina Jolie is a crazy ass!! Talk about A Blessing for Brad!!!
He looks happier than ever without Angelina. I'm glad he is not with her no more. I never like her.
Hopefully that picture is just a bad angle. She looks like a skeleton.
I was so happy to see Hollywood be on Brad's side. I am with him, too! Hugs to you, Brad!
Simply Gorgeous now the witches influence has gone! I always hated her awful woman.
Looks much better than he did when 'malificent' was around. Love ya. xxx
He's looking better than ever. Ang was bringing him down. The finest man on the planet
always lookin' good
Wow! He is beginning to look like a hunk now that the succubus has released her hold on him.
Hopefully cuntelina never gets Work in Hollywood again!! That vile wench
Looking better than ever - so handsome!!
did you see at the golden globes? they all clapping/supporting brad. they know angelina is a nuttcase LOL
if you are looking for a person who has a psychose...well she's a good example...I hope that she is having good friends who will looking for a psychologist for her....
He'd be crazy to take her back. What a nutter she turned out to be but I've never liked her
I say F her.
She can date her oldest son he's not blood. Lol she was always in luv with him lol
She needs to regret it shame on her
he looks so calm, rested and alive ! love it
so glad he's rid of that bitch
He looks so damn good
He looks like his old self. 😚
He looks like he lost years of bullshit. Looks great!
He looks awesome!
Damn, he looks good!
The Greatest Man & Gorgeous Always!!😍❤❤
The reason why I love Brad Pitt and his production company Plan B: They gave us 12 Years a Slave, Selma and Moonlight.
#Allied 3.25/5. Intriguing premise, great 1st half but wobbles towards a tame ending. Lead pair #BradPitt & #MarionCotillard r terrific.
Behind Brad all the way. I always knew Angelina would do this to him.
Brad looks fit & much younger, good for him.
Angelina must be so mad that Brad looked so hot after the divorce. Everyone knew she was a nightmare to live with which was why Brad looked horrible when marrying her.
Angie is a liar who lied about him drinking.
He is much better off without the witch.
What sane judge would leave those kids with crazy Angelina?
no matter how many times you repeat that lie, it will not become true. Angie lied about him abusing the kids, she lied about him smoking weed and she lied about him being drunk.
Way to go Angelina....you tell Brad & the kids there'll be a wedding - the marriage will give everyone more security - you wait just about 2 years - then you trash them all.
He looked gooooooooood!
Yes, as always!
He looks better than he has in a long time...
Getting rid of crazy was the best thing that's happened to him..I agree he looks great
God he's beautiful!!!
Whoo he looks good!!
#ALLIED has such a limited release in Mumbai? what is this!!!! it's #BradPitt & #MarionCotillard films for heaven's sake!
He's awesome still looking so handsome and baby face look don't look a day over35 foxy man
He looked great!
no doubt after the very positive response Brad received @ the golden globes she may be rethinking her public bashing #wepickhim
Oh me too ! I started screaming saying "I love you brad"
May God bless him and bring justice to him as a parent, and to his children so they can have a normal relationship without manipulations and lies, amen.
Well he would be crazy not to move on down after she has discredited him try to turn the kids on him some things are not repairable.
& none the less having the fbi involved .. you dont humiliate people like that and expect forgiveness
It is sad to look at her. She is in obvious need of mental, emotional and physical help. Any woman who has been in her current state of destroying your body, knows she needs help. Perhaps an intervention for the sake of the children. I am not a doctor but it is easy to discern she is having a melt down and her body is suffering.
does this man age?! He looks great
Brad!!!! We missed you! Good to see you
I know I did cheered up! ❤❤❤
He's one of those fellas that gets better with age!! Rock on Brad #teampitt
Superbly made and winningly acted by Brad Pitt in his most impressive outing to date. -The Hollywood Reporter
He shed the serpent queen and is hot again. Coincidence? I think not!
Just kidding about the serpent queen thing. Mostly.
He's a Beautiful man..😍😍
The best thing that ever happened to him is this divorce from that woman Angie.
Wait, wait, wait was Billy Bob applauding too? They will be celebrating their get out of misery cards....
I've never really been a fan of Brad Pitt, and definitely never been a fan of Angelina Jolie... But, is it me or, does Brad look waaay better than he has in the past 10 yrs?
I loved his appearance and the reaction he received
where are the VOICES that were criticising Brad for going to the Allied premieres supporting his film?
Still the sexiest man alive
Finally happy again!! Brad, you rock!!
He is so handsome!!!!!!!.
He's been let out of the fortress to start living a more real and normal existence . Living as they did was not normal .
Gorgeous as ever, he is looking so well. Welcome back Mr Pitt, keep up your good looks 💜
He lost a lot of weight from stress but he looks good
Always liked him, always will and he's still incredibly sexy.
Brad probably still loves her. The world knows he loves those children, but it would be a huge disappointment if he ever goes back to her. Life moves forward....keep it moving guy!
I would not get back with her I would definitely get Shilo and let her be a girl 3 years old that she was when Angie turned her into a boy is not old enough to make an adult decision to become transgender.
Run Brad Run! Stay away from that train wreck. Let her crash and burn on her own.
Attention addict narcissist want to make themselves the victim of their kids , when actually it the one who bring it on the kids by creating controversy and make it public war .
This what I see as they are narcissistis they are always in constant state making themselves a victim in process and dram and controversy hey created to get attention
He looks evil, just like that lady of a mother he has. I bet you those 2 are thick as thieves. I also doubt he likes his other siblings very much either.
she divorced him & wanted him gone .. "careful what you ask for"
Sick in the head!!
Hope he never goes back to you. You lost him so Deal with it
if jolie wanted to keep it private she should of shut her pie hole....

Brad Pitt gets his groove back! Angelina Jolie's handsome ex receives huge cheer of support from Hollywood pals at Golden Globes
By Dailymail.com Reporter
9 January 2017
Brad Pitt has looked tired and drawn in recent months while in the throes of a nightmare divorce from Angelina Jolie.
But the 53-year-old appears to be getting his groove back.
The actor looked incredibly handsome as he made a surprise appearance at the Golden Globes on Sunday night.
His Hollywood pals, including Matt Damon, let out a huge cheer of support as he made his way to the podium.
Mr Damon, who co-stars with him the Ocean's 11 franchise, seemed particularly heartened to see his pal come back into the spotlight.
Pitt went on to introduce a clip from Moonlight, which went on to win the Best Motion Picture - Drama category.
Happy man: Despite the turmoil in his family life the actor managed to flash his million dollar smile at the awards show
What a transformation! The dapper actor looked at least a decade younger and few pounds lighter as he took the stage
Fox! The actor looked incredibly handsome as he made a surprise appearance at the awards show
Happy to see him! His Hollywood pals let out a huge cheer of support as he made his way to the podium
What a pal! Mr Damon, who co-stars with him the Ocean's 11 franchise, seemed particularly heartened to see his pal come back into the spotlight
He said of the film: 'It’s born of the courage of a group of actors willing to strip to their souls and express their humanism inside mistake and misstep and misdeed.'
'It is Barry Jenkins profound belief that we all stand at the threshold of change and forgiveness where we only grant acceptance and love to ourselves,' he concluded.
Brad has meanwhile been locked in custody and divorce proceedings from his estranged wife Angelina Jolie.

Friends at his side: Vince Vaughn also helped lead the applause

The actress filed for divorce from Brad on September 19.
The Inglourious Basterds star was exonerated in November by officials with the FBI and Los Angeles Department of Children and Family Services, amid accusations he was physically abusive to Maddox during a Europe-bound flight in September.
Many viewers took to social media to comment on the actor's appearance following the divorce, with some saying that he 'has never looked better'.
One Twitter user, posting under the name Miss Leto, wrote: 'I can't get over how good Brad Pitt looks. That breakup did him good ! It brought him back.'
Referring to his role in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, @itsaudacious said: '#BradPitt seems to be tapping into his Benjamin Button superpowers and aging in reverse.'
And Giselle added: 'Is it just me or Brad Pitt ages like wine'?

Brad Pitt Shows Up to the Golden Globes Looking Better Than Ever — and Leaves a Winner
Taryn Ryder January 9, 2017
Brad Pitt may be having a rough go of it in his personal life, but professionally things are going quite well.
The actor — who is currently in the middle of a nasty divorce from Angelina Jolie — made a surprise appearance at the Golden Globes on Sunday night, and he looked better than ever. Pitt, 53, introduced the film Moonlight, which he produced, and as he walked onstage he was met with loud and long applause from the audience.
Just a little friendly encouragement from his peers, perhaps? While a Brad Pitt sighting is always something to cheer about, it felt somewhat personal, and he seemed to soak it up.
To top things off — not that looking good isn’t priority No. 1 while going through a high-profile split — Pitt left a winner. Moonlight edged out frontrunner Manchester by the Sea for Best Motion Picture in the drama category.
Yes, Brad Pitt definitely had a good night. Dare we say he’s got his groove back? Twitter seems to think so too.

Way to go Brad! Good for you. Brad you deserve so much better and I hope that in time you will find that one, the one you will spend the rest of your life with. Angie’s loss will be someone else’s gain. I hope that at the end of this nasty divorce you will get the one thing you want most and that is custody of your children.
Brad did look good but still to thin .. would never spend a nickel on anything that had anything to do with Angie .. never care to much about her before or even after Brad .. I hope that Brad gets full custody of his 6 children and makes Angie beg to see her children………..
Good on him, life goes on and its nice that he clearly has support in this horrific ordeal crazy ange is putting him through…….
So true and once upon a time I was a fan of Angelina but those days are over
I think divorce somehow made Brad Pitt younger
Missed few minutes toward the end, specifically Brad Pitt looking hot af
Brad has not looked this good in years. I guess his split from Angie was the best thing that could of happened to him. As for giving his kid a smack for mouthing off, I am glad he did. More kids need a good walloping. Too many liberals do not discipline and that is exactly why the crime rate has risen dramatically. Brad, you look so damn handsome.
Brad Pitt looked good for someone going thru a divorce.
Well at least I'm glad he left that 'old hag' Jolie!!! What a LOSER that woman is, she's trying to DEFAME Brad, like the lowlife that she is!!!
Great! All these good comments about Brad might make his ex-wife-to-be more psycho. Can't wait for all this dust to settle and see what new films he'll be in. Am a great fan!!!
As I recall, we have been bombarded with stories of all the antics and drug issues of Angelina Jolie, not Brad Pitt....havent heard anything negative about him until SHE said it. Pot calling the kettle black?
Dude has never looked bad a day in his life.
Stand tall, Brad! Don't let the machinations of a self-righteous ex, aka "ambassador of the world" define you. Reflect upon how this Marriage-Raider got to you when you let your guard down; when the glow of youthfulness was still in her face, and how such adulterous relationships never lead to lasting happiness.
Angelina who? Brad Pitt turns up at last night’s #GoldenGlobes in Tom Ford’s peak-lapel Shelton tuxedo …
53-year old Brad Pitt ageing well, looking better than ever as he returns to screens for the #GoldenGlobes
Brad Pitt made a surprise appearance at the 2017 Golden Globes and the audience LOVED it http://
Brad Pitt's surprise #GoldenGlobes appearance was met with a huge round of applause
Brad Pitt got a standing ovation at the #GoldenGlobes last night! Why? Cause he is Brad Fkin Pitt 🙌💙
Why is anyone surprised @realDonaldTrump melted down like a toddler on twitter, the real shock was that Brad Pitt showered #GoldenGlobes
He is looking better than he has in years. Ageless. Glad he has got a lot of support. Fed up of women using their kids to hurt the Father.
My oh my, Brad's looking good!
Brad is looking fabulous. He really does.
Hes probably not all stressed out since he left that psycho Jolie.
Was very surprised, and also very happy to see him show up. I had actually thought before the show that he probably wouldn't, but it's great he did. He had the audience's support; and the more that this news story comes to light, the better he is looking as a result of it. Hate to be sceptical, but given Jolie's past and every angle that is being jabbed at him, he seems like the father just trying to do right by his kids and family. His presence at the show was very welcomed!
Do you hear that cursing and screaming in the distance? That's Jolie watching the Golden Globes on her TV.
Matt Damon is VERY happy to see Brad Pitt. #GoldenGlobes
@TODAYshow Matt Damon is all of us at home....#GoldenGlobes
@TODAYshow We're all very happy to see Brad Pitt thank you
He's taken the high road through this whole episode and Jolie well she's taken the low road. He looks better than ever these days and I hope he picks someone decent next time and not the hot lady du jour.
When Jolie takes the low road, Mr. Pitt takes the high road. Thank you for putting your kids first. First class gentleman.
Brad looks like he is doing well. Tabloid bs can make any one look bad or good. Weather the storm Brad. The bs will pass.
Mr. Pitt is the man......divorce her and move on "Dude".....she ain't worth the stuff she's putting you through......move on......
Jolie is the one who looks like a total idiot in this divorce. She is an evil spirited vixon of hate.
Looking good Brad, WOW.
53 and he's still absolutely gorgeous.
Really this was my favorite part in the Golden Globes Event. I love him because is very talented. He is awesome
You go Brad we love you
Looking great
Brad Pitt wore a TOM FORD tuxedo to the 2017 Golden Globe Awards.
#TOMFORD #GoldenGlobes
SO BRAD PITT CO-PRODUCED #MOONLIGHT, Selma , 12 Years A Slave: investing his money on black artists AND MAKING THEM BANKABLE #GoldenGlobes
he GRACED EM WID HIS PRESENCE ! swell
Wasser's reputation is going down in flames together with Jolie's.
No matter what Jolie ain't a victim . All this crazy left and right to be a victim ain't works
It's been revealed that the actress organised for photographers to pap the outing in order to "humiliate and devastate" Brad, according to New Idea.
Angelina is scared of possibility of joint custody because she is afraid the kids will end up liking to live with Brad more. Kids like freedom but in some time they start to crave stability. Like Madonna’s son
The public supports him because Angie has said a million times what a great person and dad he is. She now trashes him - lies.
He sure looks happy since the wicked witch dumped him. He's a lucky guy to be hid of her.
Well it might have helped her cause had she not immediately engaged the press in every aspect of her separation. I don't feel bad for her but I do feel for the kids because I think she is manipulative and will use them to get what she wants from him and to garner sympathy from the public!
He is regaining some of the life she sucked out of him over 12 years... Looking fabulous, Pitt.
Who do you think linked it to the press? She has controlled every bit of publicity throughout their relationship. She chose to make the incident public. We don't know what happened on that plane. We do know he has been cleared by both the FBI and Child Services. Regardless of what any of us think we don't know anything. There are children involved and their world has come apart. Only 1 parent has made any of this public, and that's her.
I'm usually the first one to stand on the side of the woman in these incidents. But Jolie has never been an innocent victim. Any parent of teenagers can tell you that there are moments when they push way too far. As far as I'm concerned if he was cleared then that's that. For her to keep bringing it up only makes her look bad. Maddox needs to spend time with his father to heal whatever was broken on that plane.
She is made the bad guy because that has how she chose to represent herself. If she really was about putting those children first, this could have been done out of the public eye. There are many people in Hollywood who are able to keep their lives private.
What are you talking about? He hasn't "played" any kind of pity card but ahe did ny making untrue allegations that both the FBI and LA Police determined were unfounded. Makes her a vindictive liar, and that's just so far.
Why is this a surprise? He had the job of announcing a category, plus his movie was nominated for an award. Is he supposed to hide out just because he's going through a divorce? Or just because Jolie wants ALL their personal business to be public, so their children can read about it when they get old enough and see what their "mother" did to their "father"? Another false headline by another biased journalist.
Jolie is the one who looks like a total idiot in this divorce. She is an evil spirited vixon of hate.
no doubt the warm welcoming he received at the GG had something to do with this....I'm sure she is trying to preserve her image by agreeing to play nice now...
With all due respect, that's what she should have done in the first place. Please put your ego aside and put the children first. The things she's claimed are concerning, but he was cleared of them, so it makes her look really bad. 😕 I've also given this advice to my ex but he sadly won't listen, being childish doesn't help especially when I don't want you back.
Exactly I am starting to think he probably has something also on her which is why she did a 180
For the sake of the children, I hope it works out. That means keeping Angie the media manipulator under control. Good luck.
She is all about control. She should have done that in the first place. Selfish. She always has heen
Brad, be done with this crazy lady, you deserve so much better!
Yeah until she finds a way to stab him in the back again lol
Angelina Jolie looks emaciated!
Crazy biatch, doesnt care about her kids. Shes been slinging mud for months. I don't believe her accusations!!
Angelina needs a taco or 10!
Angelina Jolie is a nut job. I bet Brad regrets ever starting up that affair!
someone give that women a burger! please! haha
Pitt won. Jolie is a master manipulator. He should get sole custody of all the kids.
Somebody, buy her some food!

But also, NO ONE will ever beat Brad Pitt. Like immediately when he came on the tv the room was silent and all of us were like 😍😍😍🤤🤤🤤
Way to go Brad! Good for you. Brad you deserve so much better and I hope that in time you will find that one, the one you will spend the rest of your life with. Angie’s loss will be someone else’s gain. I hope that at the end of this nasty divorce you will get the one thing you want most and that is custody of your children.
Brad did look good but still to thin .. would never spend a nickel on anything that had anything to do with Angie .. never care to much about her before or even after Brad .. I hope that Brad gets full custody of his 6 children and makes Angie beg to see her children………..
Good on him, life goes on and its nice that he clearly has support in this horrific ordeal crazy ange is putting him through…….
So true and once upon a time I was a fan of Angelina but those days are over
I think divorce somehow made Brad Pitt younger
Missed few minutes toward the end, specifically Brad Pitt looking hot af
Brad has not looked this good in years. I guess his split from Angie was the best thing that could of happened to him. As for giving his kid a smack for mouthing off, I am glad he did. More kids need a good walloping. Too many liberals do not discipline and that is exactly why the crime rate has risen dramatically. Brad, you look so damn handsome.
Brad Pitt looked good for someone going thru a divorce.
Well at least I'm glad he left that 'old hag' Jolie!!! What a LOSER that woman is, she's trying to DEFAME Brad, like the lowlife that she is!!!
Great! All these good comments about Brad might make his ex-wife-to-be more psycho. Can't wait for all this dust to settle and see what new films he'll be in. Am a great fan!!!
As I recall, we have been bombarded with stories of all the antics and drug issues of Angelina Jolie, not Brad Pitt....havent heard anything negative about him until SHE said it. Pot calling the kettle black?
Dude has never looked bad a day in his life.
Stand tall, Brad! Don't let the machinations of a self-righteous ex, aka "ambassador of the world" define you. Reflect upon how this Marriage-Raider got to you when you let your guard down; when the glow of youthfulness was still in her face, and how such adulterous relationships never lead to lasting happiness.

SO BRAD PITT CO-PRODUCED #MOONLIGHT, Selma , 12 Years A Slave: investing his money on black artists AND MAKING THEM BANKABLE #GoldenGlobes
IT's ONE THING TO SAY YOU SUPPORT ME AS A BLACK ARTIST it's another to put your skin on the game to make ME bankable...
BRAD PITT's INTERESTS HAVE ALWAYS FASCINATED ME because it's clear he's investing in that OWS slogan: "a different world is possible"
IT's OBVIOUS PITT TAKES PRIDE ON THE PROJECTS HE DEVELOPS: they do stand on their own merit & aren't narcissistic reflections of who he is
SO WHITE FAM: next time you wonder what you can do as an "ally", think of Brad Pitt. as imperfect as he is, he's doing the work wonderfully
credit where credit is due. he's doing the work IN HOLLYWOOD and that's truly admirable
I didn't know that Brad co-produced Moonlight. That's so cool :)
I like that he Isn't on a soap box about it, just does it. You don't have to shout about how diverse you are, BE about diversity.
Did y'all see a pic of Brad Pitt from the Golden Globes? He has found the fountain of youth...
Just eye-candy for the girls! You're welcome #BradPitt #KIIS1065
Brad Pitt gets standing ovation from Hollywood elite during surprise Golden Globes appearance

Fight club 2 please
The huge round of applause from the HW elite for Brad was a big fuck you to Angelina.

Brad Pitt receives warm reception at Golden Globes amid Angelina Jolie divorce battle
Telegraph Film
9 JANUARY 2017
Brad Pitt was back in the spotlight on Sunday night, lapping up the applause at the Golden Globes after months of divorce proceedings with Angelina Jolie.
The 53-year-old actor took to the stage to introduce a clip from Moonlight, a film which he helped produce and which went on to win the Best Motion Picture in the Drama category.
"It’s born of the courage of a group of actors willing to strip to their souls and express their humanism inside mistake and misstep and misdeed," he said of the film.
"It is Barry Jenkins profound belief that we all stand at the threshold of change and forgiveness where we only grant acceptance and love to ourselves," he concluded.
His surprise appearance was greeted with a huge round of applause from the Hollywood audience, especially from friend Matt Damon.
The warm reception did not go unnoticed by those following on social media.
"Apparently Brad Pitt got custody of the Hollywood friends in his divorce from Maleficent," journalist Tony Bravo wrote, alluding to a character played by Jolie.
Other noticed the difficult past few months had not taken their toll on his looks.
"Brad Pitt seems to be tapping into his Benjamin Button superpowers and aging in reverse," another Twitter user wrote.
Jolie filed for divorce in September after Pitt was involved in a disturbance during a private flight with his family.
Pitt was exonerated when investigations by the FBI and Department of Children and Family Services concluded no action was necessary.
Jolie cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for the divorce.

Golden Globes 2017: Meryl Streep Slams Donald Trump, Brad Pitt’s Surprise Appearance Applauded and More Top Moments
January 9, 2017 @ 12:54 AM
By Sierra Marquina
Well, hot damn! Awards season kicked off in full swing on Sunday, January 8, when Jimmy Fallon hosted the 74th annual Golden Globe awards — and they didn’t disappoint. The late-night host began the evening with an epic re-creation of La La Land’s opening number, and Brad Pitt stole the end of the show when he surprised the audience by gracing the stage, making one of his first official appearances since his nasty split from estranged wife Angelina Jolie.
Did we mention that Ryan Gosling dedicated his Best Actor win to his daughters and wife Eva Mendes? Because, yes, that swoonworthy moment happened too.
Relive the highlights from the awards show, held at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, in the video above and get all the details below:
1. Jimmy Fallon Re-Creates La La Land’s Opening Musical Number
The awards-show host pulled off the unimaginable and enlisted the help of Nicole Kidman, Amy Adams, Kit Harrington, Justin Timberlake, the cast of Stranger Things and a bevy of other A-listers to spoof the award-winning film’s opening scene. To the tune of “Another Day in the Sun,” Fallon danced with the stars on top of and around limos after pretending to be stuck in traffic.
2. The Teleprompter Breaks During the Opening Monologue — Cue Mariah Carey
During Fallon’s opening monologue, the teleprompter decided to quit on the 42-year-old funnyman. "Welcome to the Golden Globes. Already the teleprompter is down. This is a great way to start the show," he told the crowd, while trying to stall for time. "I can do impressions. What do we do here? I can think of something. Cut to Justin Timberlake, please,” he joked. “Just wink at me or something.” After the issue was resolved, Fallon later jokingly compared his technical error to Mariah Carey’s disastrous New Year’s Eve performance. Fallon joked that Carey had called him and said it was Dick Clark Productions again.
3. Goldie Hawn Needs Her Reading Glasses
Snatched costars Goldie Hawn and Amy Schumer presented the Golden Globe for Best Actor in a Comedy or Musical Film and had viewers equally entertained with their comedy chops. Hawn, 71, pretended to not be able to read the prompter, causing Schumer to jokingly ask the Death Becomes Her star’s longtime partner, Kurt Russell, if he’d brought her reading glasses. “You’re nailing it,” Schumer encouraged Hawn after she mixed up the words “tainted” and “musical” for “talented” and “musical.”
4. Ryan Gosling Makes Us All Swoon, and Then Some
Gosling delivered an emotional and heartfelt speech thanking his “lady” Mendes and their two daughters, Amada and Esmeralda, and dedicating his win to her late brother, Carlos (who died of cancer), while accepting the award for Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture — Musical or Comedy for La La Land. After thanking his costar Emma Stone, Gosling said that if it weren’t for Mendes, his win wouldn’t have been possible. “I would like to try to thank one person properly and say while I was singing and dancing and playing piano and having one of the best experiences I've ever had on a film, my lady was raising our daughter, pregnant with our second and trying to help her brother fight his battle with cancer,” Gosling said while looking directly into the camera. “If she hadn't have taken all that on so that I could have this experience, it would surely be someone else up here other than me today. So, sweetheart, thank you. To my daughters, Amada and Esmeralda, I love you.”
5. Andrew Garfield and Ryan Reynolds Kiss, Break the Internet
Did we just see that?! Andrew Garfield and Ryan Reynolds were caught kissing as Gosling made his way to the stage to accept his Golden Globe for Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture — Musical or Comedy. In a bromantic moment that quickly went viral, the two actors lock lips while seated at the same table as Reynolds’ wife, Blake Lively, as she watches Gosling’s big moment seemingly unfazed. The internet was quick to react, dubbing 2017 the best year yet.
6. Meryl Streep Delivers Fiery Anti–Donald Trump Speech
While accepting the Cecil B. DeMille Award, the three-time Oscar winner took aim at President-elect Donald Trump for mocking disabled New York Times investigative reporter Serge F. Kovaleski, who suffers from a congenital joint condition, during a campaign rally last year. "There was one performance this year that stunned me,” Streep told the room, who offered her their full attention. “It sank its hooks in my heart. Not because it was good. There was nothing good about it. But it was effective and it did its job. It made its intended audience laugh and show their teeth. It was that moment when the person asking to sit in the most respected seat in our country imitated a disabled reporter, someone he outranked in privilege, power and the capacity to fight back. It kind of broke my heart when I saw it. I still can't get it out of my head because it wasn't in a movie. It was real life.” The legendary actress went on to urge her peers to “protect journalists because we're going to need them going forward. And they'll need us to safeguard the truth.”
7. Brad Pitt Makes a Surprise Appearance — and Gets a Big Round of Applause
Pitt was greeted with a loud round of applause as he made a surprise appearance at the Golden Globes. The actor, who looked handsome in a clean-cut suit, was on hand to present a segment highlighting Best Picture drama winner Moonlight, which his company Plan B produced. The moment marked one of Pitt’s first official appearances since his nasty split from estranged wife Angelina Jolie.

During Fallon’s opening monologue, the teleprompter decided to quit on the 42-year-old funnyman. "Welcome to the Golden Globes. Already the teleprompter is down. This is a great way to start the show," he told the crowd, while trying to stall for time. "I can do impressions. What do we do here? I can think of something. Cut to Justin Timberlake, please,” he joked. “Just wink at me or something.” After the issue was resolved, Fallon later jokingly compared his technical error to Mariah Carey’s disastrous New Year’s Eve performance. Fallon joked that Carey had called him and said it was Dick Clark Productions again.
3. Goldie Hawn Needs Her Reading Glasses
Snatched costars Goldie Hawn and Amy Schumer presented the Golden Globe for Best Actor in a Comedy or Musical Film and had viewers equally entertained with their comedy chops. Hawn, 71, pretended to not be able to read the prompter, causing Schumer to jokingly ask the Death Becomes Her star’s longtime partner, Kurt Russell, if he’d brought her reading glasses. “You’re nailing it,” Schumer encouraged Hawn after she mixed up the words “tainted” and “musical” for “talented” and “musical.”
4. Ryan Gosling Makes Us All Swoon, and Then Some
Gosling delivered an emotional and heartfelt speech thanking his “lady” Mendes and their two daughters, Amada and Esmeralda, and dedicating his win to her late brother, Carlos (who died of cancer), while accepting the award for Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture — Musical or Comedy for La La Land. After thanking his costar Emma Stone, Gosling said that if it weren’t for Mendes, his win wouldn’t have been possible. “I would like to try to thank one person properly and say while I was singing and dancing and playing piano and having one of the best experiences I've ever had on a film, my lady was raising our daughter, pregnant with our second and trying to help her brother fight his battle with cancer,” Gosling said while looking directly into the camera. “If she hadn't have taken all that on so that I could have this experience, it would surely be someone else up here other than me today. So, sweetheart, thank you. To my daughters, Amada and Esmeralda, I love you.”
5. Andrew Garfield and Ryan Reynolds Kiss, Break the Internet
Did we just see that?! Andrew Garfield and Ryan Reynolds were caught kissing as Gosling made his way to the stage to accept his Golden Globe for Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture — Musical or Comedy. In a bromantic moment that quickly went viral, the two actors lock lips while seated at the same table as Reynolds’ wife, Blake Lively, as she watches Gosling’s big moment seemingly unfazed. The internet was quick to react, dubbing 2017 the best year yet.
6. Meryl Streep Delivers Fiery Anti–Donald Trump Speech
While accepting the Cecil B. DeMille Award, the three-time Oscar winner took aim at President-elect Donald Trump for mocking disabled New York Times investigative reporter Serge F. Kovaleski, who suffers from a congenital joint condition, during a campaign rally last year. "There was one performance this year that stunned me,” Streep told the room, who offered her their full attention. “It sank its hooks in my heart. Not because it was good. There was nothing good about it. But it was effective and it did its job. It made its intended audience laugh and show their teeth. It was that moment when the person asking to sit in the most respected seat in our country imitated a disabled reporter, someone he outranked in privilege, power and the capacity to fight back. It kind of broke my heart when I saw it. I still can't get it out of my head because it wasn't in a movie. It was real life.” The legendary actress went on to urge her peers to “protect journalists because we're going to need them going forward. And they'll need us to safeguard the truth.”
7. Brad Pitt Makes a Surprise Appearance — and Gets a Big Round of Applause
Pitt was greeted with a loud round of applause as he made a surprise appearance at the Golden Globes. The actor, who looked handsome in a clean-cut suit, was on hand to present a segment highlighting Best Picture drama winner Moonlight, which his company Plan B produced. The moment marked one of Pitt’s first official appearances since his nasty split from estranged wife Angelina Jolie.

Brad Pitt Makes Surprise Appearance at Golden Globes to Present Moonlight
BY BLAKE BAKKILA
JANUARY 8, 2017
Brad Pitt surprised everyone when he presented the film Moonlight at the Golden Globes on Sunday night in a rare public appearance.
Pitt, 53, took the stage to a loud applause from the crowd. The actor looked sleek, wearing a classic black tuxedo for the occasion.
“It’s born of the courage of a group of actors willing to strip to their souls and express their humanism inside mistake and misstep and misdeed,”Pitt said during his presentation of the film, which was named Best Film by the National Society of Film Critics on Saturday, according to Variety.
“It is Barry Jenkins profound belief that we all stand at the threshold of change and forgiveness where we only grant acceptance and love to ourselves,” he continued. “Nominated for 6 Golden Globes, this is Moonlight.”
Pitt’s production company, Plan B, partnered with A24 to produce the coming-of-age drama about a gay, African-American boy, and the film has been earning Oscar buzz.
Last November, Pitt made his first public appearance since news broke of his split from Angelina Jolie, when he attended a private screening of Moonlight in Los Angeles.
Pitt, 53, and Jolie, 41, have a voluntary temporary custody agreement in place that allows the actor supervised visitation with the children.
The father of six has had weekly supervised visits with the kids since October, according to a court filing by Jolie.

Brad Pitt Shows Up to the Golden Globes Looking Better Than Ever — and Leaves a Winner
Taryn Ryder
Writer, Yahoo Celebrity
9 January 2017
Surprise!
Brad Pitt may be having a rough go of it in his personal life, but professionally things are going quite well.
The actor — who is currently in the middle of a nasty divorce from Angelina Jolie — made a surprise appearance at the Golden Globes on Sunday night, and he looked better than ever. Pitt, 53, introduced the film Moonlight, which he produced, and as he walked onstage he was met with loud and long applause from the audience.
Just a little friendly encouragement from his peers, perhaps? While a Brad Pitt sighting is always something to cheer about, it felt somewhat personal, and he seemed to soak it up.
To top things off — not that looking good isn’t priority No. 1 while going through a high-profile split — Pitt left a winner. Moonlight edged out frontrunner Manchester by the Sea for Best Motion Picture in the drama category.
Yes, Brad Pitt definitely had a good night. Dare we say he’s got his groove back? Twitter seems to think so too.

Brad Pitt Cheered On In Surprise Appearance At Globes As Angelia Jolie Divorce Gets Nasty
Sun, January 8, 2017 11:00pm EST by Sophie Radvan
Wait, what’s HE doing there?! Gracing us with his presence at the 2017 Golden Globes was Brad Pitt! None of us had any idea he would be in attendance — let alone get up on stage and present a movie award. See just how well the hunk cleaned up for the epic event, here!
Remember that Brad Pitt, 52, movie The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button? Where that dude ages in reverse? Well, that’s ACTUALLY happening with the actor. Brad practically looked to be in his late 20’s at the 2017 Golden Globes with that well-tailored suit and short haircut. Clearly he hasn’t lost his touch amid the nasty Angelina Jolie divorce. We seriously had NO idea that the hunk would show up, but he unexpectedly decided not only attend, but get up on stage and praise the movie his company stands behind.
In case you didn’t know this, Brad owns the Plan B production company that helped produce the bold movie Moonlight. Brad could have sent his well-wishes through an email or possible social media post, but instead, he actually came to the Golden Globes! If you thought he was going to mope around the house and feel sorry for himself, think again! Brad cleaned up REALLY well tonight (Jan. 8), almost as if to show Angie what she’s missing. Hey, if girls can get revenge bodies to make guys jealous, it works vice versa as well!
This is the first award show in a LONG time that Angie wasn’t walking arm-in-arm with Brad on the red carpet. The Fight Club star actually skipped the red carpet this year — probably to avoid any and all questions about his divorce. The last time we saw Brad at a star-studded event, he looked a little skinner than usual. Tonight, however, he reverted back to his handsome, usual self!

Brad Pitt Surprised Everyone With a Golden Globes Appearance
By Peggy Truong
Jan 09, 2017
Just listen to the audience.
The beautiful thing about award shows is that you never know who's going to show up. Sunday's Golden Globes were no different, as Brad Pitt and his stubble surprised the shit out of everyone when he arrived on stage to present Moonlight. Brad's Plan B Entertainment co-produced the film, so the appearance was not too far fetched. But just listen to the crowd, who obviously did not get the heads up that Brad was about to make one of his first major public appearances since the end of Brangelina. Vince Vaughn and Matt Damon were just as stunned as everyone:
Brad's most recent public appearance was in November at the Madrid premiere of Allied.

Brad Pitt's Surprise Appearance at the 2017 Golden Globes Nearly Brought the House Down
by BILLY NILLES | Mon, Jan 9, 2017 11:25 AM
As if there was any doubt, Brad Pitt's still got plenty—and we mean plenty—of fans in Hollywood.
The beloved actor surprised the crowd at the 2017 Golden Globes on Sunday towards the end of the telecast to deliver the introduction package for Barry Jenkin's film Moonlight, nominated for Best Motion Picture, Drama (his company Plan B produced the film)—and the sight of the actor had everyone in the audience losing their minds.
As with most introductions right after a return from commercial break, the crowd offered their initial tepid applause as they began to settle back into their seats from their quick trip to the bar in the back, clearly only half paying attention. But once they realized just who it was standing before them, the cheers grew to a roar.
The actor's largely been out of the spotlight since his divorce from Angelina Jolie—and their subsequent custody battle over their six children—made headlines in September of last year. While he made his first public appearance at a private screening of Moonlight in Los Angeles in November, his time on stage at the Globes marks his first TV appearance in some time.
And in the blink of an eye (or rather, the duration of the Moonlight sizzle reel), Pitt's presence on stage was over. In his place was host Jimmy Fallon, ready to introduce the next presenters, leaving us with only our brief memories.
Until next time, Brad. But don't make us wait so long, you hear?

7 Biggest Jaw-Droppers at the 2017 Golden Globes
by NATALIE FINN | Mon, Jan 9, 2017 8:00 PM
Well, what do you know?
An award show hosted by the lovable Jimmy Fallon can have its twists and turns.
The 74th Annual Golden Globe Awards unfolded in atypically dramatic fashion on Sunday, with both the Hollywood Foreign Press Association and the night's honorees keeping us on our toes throughout the three-hour-long ceremony. Just when you thought you knew what was going to happen...
Surprise!
And not only did the 2017 Golden Globes refuse to make the rest of award season any more predictable, by the end of the night, everyone sitting in that room had managed to become even more bound together by their chosen profession, many of them worshiping at the feet of a deity named Meryl.
1. Hey, It's Brad Pitt!: Somehow, amid all the...stuff, it slipped a few minds that critical darling Moonlight was produced by the actor's Plan B Entertainment. So it was a proper opportunity for Pitt to seize the moment and make his return to the center of the Hollywood universe first.
Moreover, he managed to pull off an entirely surprise appearance and was rewarded with a hearty round of applause and the sounds of more than a few young ladies exclaiming, "We love Brad!" The level of excitement was almost a little silly, considering what it is he's returning from compared to the cause for most ovations, but the veteran actor looked visibly touched—and it was a moment that was fairly impossible to not enjoy.
Pitt also couldn't have picked a better night to "come back": Moonlight won for Best Motion Picture, Drama, the night's top award.
2. Moonlight With a Chance of Clouds: Big win aside, one of the hands-down biggest shocks of the whole night was Mahershala Ali not winning Best Supporting Actor for his role as a drug dealer who takes a client's son under his wing in Moonlight. The actor, previously best known for roles on House of Cards and Luke Cage, had been vacuuming up critics' awards, scored a SAG Award nomination and seemed the likely choice to steamroll right through Oscar night. Instead, Aaron Taylor-Johnson came from way out of left field—so far left even the nomination caused whiplash—to win the Globe. And he's not even nominated for a SAG! The British actor was indeed quite effective (and entirely unrecognizable) in his chilling performance as a cold-blooded killer in Tom Ford's Nocturnal Animals, but no one saw this coming. Particularly Aaron Taylor-Johnson.
But the Globes and Oscars split in this category last year as well (Mark Rylance knocked out Sylvester Stallone in the end), so this may just be a one-off.
3. La La Land Lives the Dream: While Oscar could still go another way—particularly since the cast of Damien Chazelle's homage to Los Angeles, the golden age of Hollywood musicals and the ol' power of love wasn't nominated for SAG's ensemble award—La La Land's seven wins last night to achieve utter Golden Globe domination were no joke. Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling won Best Actress and Actor in a Musical or Comedy, Chazelle won for his direction and his screenplay, the score and song "City of Stars" were winners and the movie was named Best Motion Picture, Musical or Comedy.
That's a lot of winning. Oh, and it turns out that it was possible to love Gosling even more: He dedicated his win to longtime partner Eva Mendes' late brother.
4. The British People vs. O.J. Simpson: The Hollywood Foreign Press was found guilty of unabashed Anglophilia last night. For speechifying purposes alone, we couldn't have been happier to see Hugh Laurie win Best Supporting Actor in a TV Series, Limited Series for The Night Manager at what he cheekily referred to as "the last ever Golden Globes." But his triumph still came as a shock/disappointment because it meant Sterling K. Brown didn't win for suiting up as embattled prosecutor Christopher Darden in The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story. And not only that, but Tom Hiddleston upset Courtney B. Vance, who channeled Johnnie Cochran in what arguably was the most talked about show of 2016, for Best Actor in a Limited Series or TV Movie. Absentee Best Supporting Actress in a TV Series, Limited Series or TV Movie winner Olivia Colman made it a three-win night for The Night Manager and AMC.
The unstoppable Sarah Paulson and The People v. O.J. itself won, but the good old-fashioned thrills of The Night Manager, based on the John le Carré novel, proved, like the Night Manager himself, too charming to ignore.
Further making this the most British night ever, the HFPA named The Crown Best Drama Series and Claire Foy Best Actress, using one of its honor-a-new-show tickets this year on the lavish, soap-tastic Netflix drama about Queen Elizabeth II's first years on the throne. (The comedy ticket went to FX's Atlanta and Best Actor Donald Glover—deserving and not a shock, considering the Globes' propensity for honoring freshman series.)
5. Give 'Em Elle: OK, the Globes were a little French, too. Elle, about a singularly calculating, shrewd and enigmatic woman who plots elaborate revenge on the man who sexually assaulted her, was named Best Foreign Language Film—and then Isabelle Huppert, who lately has been the subject of "greatest living actress" conversations, toppled Natalie Portman's Jackie (yet another spot-on portrayal of an enigmatic woman) to win Best Actress in a Motion Picture, Drama.
Even though we still think Portman will be winning her second Oscar next month, Huppert's Golden Globe couldn't have been more deserved—particularly since she was snubbed by the Screen Actors Guild. And better yet, the usually cool-as-a-rainy-Paris-day star looked so pleased and emotionally stunned by her win. (Memo to the orchestra that played her off mid-speech: Shame!)
6. Meryl Streep Makes America Tweet Again: The actress claimed she had lost her voice, but that couldn't have been further from the truth. In accepting the Cecil B. DeMille Award for lifetime achievement after a fabulous presentation by her Doubt co-star Viola Davisand a jaw-dropping montage of one perfect performance after another, the record 30-time Golden Globe nominee took the opportunity to talk politics instead of reflect on her glorious career. She didn't just make a few jokes, either. Rather, without naming names, Streep voiced her concern for the future of the free press and stressed the dire importance of the arts—starting with the work of the people in the room—to a diverse, inclusive society. She punctuated her own frustration, anger and tentative hope by quoting her late friend Carrie Fisher, whose memorial Streep attended last week: "Take your broken heart, make it into art."
Whether or not everyone watching at home appreciated her message (judging by the mixed reaction on Twitter, we're guessing not everyone did), her fellow actors were blown away.
7. No One Missed Ricky Gervais: Perhaps Hollywood's biggest stars should get the chance to honor each other not that ironically on Golden Globes night after all. While Gervais' brand of cutting humor is a force to be reckoned with, he cut so deep last year that it might have left more than a few guests feeling a little dirty just for being there. So for 2017, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association and NBC went for Jimmy Fallon in celebration mode—aka, his element—and ended up with a perfectly charming, brisk, enjoyable show with a spot-on opening number and just enough political jokes to satisfy the crowd. (Everyone aside from Meryl Streep, that is.)
Fallon even deftly handled a teleprompter malfunction within the show's first few minutes and the whole thing ended on time. There's your Hollywood magic right there.
