Emma Stone won the Golden Globe for best performance by a female actor in a motion picture (musical or comedy) for "Poor Things."

"This is amazing," Stone said before thanking her fellow "Poor Things" cast members and crew, as well as director Yorgos Lanthimos.

"I see this as a rom-com," said Stone, who portrays the character Bella Baxter in the film, "but in the sense that Bella falls in love with life itself, rather than a person, and she accepts the good and the bad in equal measure -- and that really made me look at life differently."

Other nominees in the category included Fantasia Barrino for "The Color Purple," Jennifer Lawrence for "No Hard Feelings," Natalie Portman for "May December," Alma Pöysti for "Fallen Leaves" and Margot Robbie for "Barbie."

Christopher Nolan won the Golden Globe for best director for "Oppenheimer."

"The only time I've ever been on the stage before was accepting one of these on behalf of our dear friend, Heath Ledger, and that was complicated and challenging for me," the filmmaker said, referencing Ledger's posthumous Golden Globes win in 2008 for his role as the Joker in Nolan's "The Dark Knight."

Nolan noted that he received "a look of love and support" from Robert Downey Jr. during that moment as well as during his speech Sunday night.

"I thought it'd be simpler accepting for myself, but as a director … I stand here and realize I can only accept this on behalf of people," he continued. "As directors, we bring people together and we try to get them to give their best."

He shouted out the "Oppenheimer" cast as well as his wife and producing partner Emma Thomas, calling her "my partner in life and in art."

This is Nolan's sixth nomination and first win.

Other nominees in the category included Bradley Cooper for "Maestro," Greta Gerwig for "Barbie," Yorgos Lanthimos for "Poor Things," Martin Scorsese for "Killers of the Flower Moon" and Celine Song for "Past Lives."

"The Boy and the Heron" won the Golden Globe for best motion picture (animated).

Other nominees in the category included "Elemental," "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse," "The Super Mario Bros. Movie," "Suzume" and "Wish."

Kieran Culkin won the Golden Globe for best performance by a male actor in a television series (drama) for "Succession."

"I was nominated for a Golden Globe like 20 years ago, and when that moment passed, I sort of remember thinking, 'I’m never going to be back in this room again,' which was fine, whatever,” he said during his acceptance speech. “But thanks to 'Succession,' I've been in here a couple times. It's nice, but I sort of accepted I would never be on the stage, so this is a nice moment."

"Suck it, Pedro,” he joked to fellow nominee, Pedro Pascal, who was nominated for "The Last of Us."

Other nominees in the category included Brian Cox for "Succession," Gary Oldman for "Slow Horses," Jeremy Strong for "Succession" and Dominic West for "The Crown."

"Oppenheimer" won the Golden Globe for best motion picture (drama).

Producer Emma Thomas accepted the award on behalf of the film.

"Thank you so much to the Golden Globes," Thomas began. "This was just an incredible experience making this film."

"I loved sitting here and hearing everyone talk about their work. What we do here is collaboration, and I find that to be completely magical," she added, before acknowledging director Christopher Nolan, her husband, for his work on the film.

This was "Oppenheimer's" fifth win at the Golden Globes tonight. The movie also won best performance by a male actor in a supporting role in any motion picture, best director, best performance by a male actor in a motion picture (drama) and best original score.

Other nominees in the category included "Anatomy of a Fall," "Killers of the Flower Moon," "Maestro," "Past Lives" and "The Zone of Interest."
