Emma Stone wins best performance by a female actor in a motion picture (musical or comedy)
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."
