Musical hit La La Land has much of the momentum in the comedy and musical category, while Manchester By the Sea and Moonlight are creating buzz for the drama prize. Natalie Portman, who’s nominated for Jackie; Amy Adams, who’s nominated for Arrival; and Denzel Washington, who’s nominated for Fences, are all vying for their third Globe wins. Meryl Streep, whose performance this year in Florence Foster Jenkins earned her her 30th nomination, will also receive the Cecil B. DeMille Award for “outstanding contributions to the world of entertainment.”
