The 79th annual Golden Globes are happening in Hollywood on Sunday but will not be live-streamed or televised by NBC due to the scandal about the lack of diversity within the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. Still, this year’s nominees double as a solid to-do list in itself — watching The Lost Daughter, the new film starring Olivia Colman and directed by Maggie Gyllenhaal (streaming on Netflix) is one highly recommended example. Read our editorial about the relevance (or lack thereof) of the Golden Globes here.

The Golden Globes go bye-bye this year.
