Amy Sussman, Getty Images via AFP </div>BEVERLY HILLS -- (UPDATED) Surreal narco-musical &quot;Emilia Perez&quot; and epic immigrant drama &quot;The Brutalist&quot; were the big winners at the Golden Globes on Sunday, as prizes were shared widely across an international crop of movies at the year&#x27;s first major showbiz awards gala.French director Jacques Audiard&#x27;s Mexico-set &quot;Emilia Perez&quot; took four prizes, including best comedy or musical film, while &quot;The Brutalist&quot; was named best drama and also picked up best actor for Adrien Brody, who plays a Hungarian Holocaust survivor.&quot;Emilia Perez,&quot; about a drug lord who transitions to life as a woman, had entered the night with the most nominations at 10.It won for best non-English language film and best original song, while Zoe Saldana took best supporting actress honors, nudging out her co-star Selena Gomez.&quot;You can maybe put us in jail, you can beat us up, but you never can take away our soul, our resistance, our identity,&quot; said Karla Sofia Gascon, the film&#x27;s star, who is transgender.She added: &quot;Raise your voice... and say, &#x27;I won. I am who I am, not who you want.&#x27;&quot;Big wins at the Globes can help movies earn new audiences and build vital momentum toward the Oscars in early March.Sunday also proved an important night for &quot;The Brutalist,&quot; which shrugged off concerns over its sprawling runtime to earn best director for Brady Corbet.&quot;I was told that no one would come out and see it,&quot; said Corbet, of his epic about a Jewish architect who survives Nazi persecution and emigrates to the United States.&quot;No one was asking for a three-and-a-half hour film about a mid-century designer... but it works,&quot; he added.In one of the night&#x27;s biggest upsets, Brazil&#x27;s Fernanda Torres won best actress in a drama film for &quot;I&#x27;m Still Here,&quot; which chronicles a family ripped apart by the country&#x27;s military dictatorship in the 1970s.<div>Comebacks </div>Brody&#x27;s win was one of the night&#x27;s remarkable career comebacks, more than two decades after he became the youngest ever Oscar best actor winner for &quot;The Pianist,&quot; in which he also played a Holocaust survivor.&quot;There was a time not too long ago that I felt that this may be a moment never afforded to me again,&quot; he said. &quot;This story... is very reminiscent of my mother&#x27;s, and my ancestral journey of fleeing the horrors of war and coming to this great country.&quot;And there was another late-career triumph for Demi Moore, who won best actress in a comedy for body horror flick &quot;The Substance,&quot; which takes a satirical and often grotesque look at the pressures placed on women by society as they age.Accepting her prize, Moore reflected on how decades ago, she had been told by a Hollywood producer that she was &quot;a popcorn actress.&quot;&quot;I bought in, and I believed that, and that corroded me over time,&quot; said the now 62-year-old &quot;Ghost&quot; star.But &quot;I had this magical, bold, courageous, out-of-the-box, absolutely bonkers script come across my desk called &#x27;The Substance,&#x27; and the universe told me that &#x27;you&#x27;re not done.&#x27;&quot;<div>Ozempic </div>The always controversial Globes are in year two of a revamp, following a Los Angeles Times expose in 2021 that showed that the awards&#x27; voting body -- the Hollywood Foreign Press Association -- had no Black members.Now under new ownership, and with the HFPA disbanded, organizers were hoping to capitalize on a ratings bump registered last January.Comedian Nikki Glaser hosted the ceremony, kicking off the gala with an irreverent, well-received monologue.&quot;Welcome to the 82nd Golden Globes, Ozempic&#x27;s biggest night,&quot; she quipped, referring to the weight-loss drug that has proven wildly popular in famously looks-conscious Hollywood.Among the dramas, &quot;Conclave,&quot; a fictionalized account of high-stakes Vatican horse-trading, depicting how the death of a pope sends the church&#x27;s various factions into battle for its future, took the award for best screenplay.In comedy, Sebastian Stan won the best actor for &quot;A Different Man,&quot; in which he portrays a man who undergoes experimental treatment for a disfiguring facial condition, but comes to rue the consequences.&quot;Our ignorance and discomfort around disability and disfigurement has to end now,&quot; said Stan. &quot;We have to normalize it and continue to expose ourselves to it.&quot;Kieran Culkin won best supporting actor for Jesse Eisenberg&#x27;s awkward road trip comedy &quot;A Real Pain,&quot; about mismatched American cousins retracing their European roots.Latvian movie &quot;Flow,&quot; a surreal dialogue-free odyssey about a group of animals forced to work together as they drift in a boat through a flooded world, won best animated film.The show also honors the best in television, with big wins for historical epic &quot;Shogun,&quot; showbiz comedy &quot;Hacks&quot; and limited series &quot;Baby Reindeer.&quot;<div>Full list of winners</div>Here are the winners in key categories for the 82nd Golden Globe Awards, which were handed out on Sunday.<div> </div><div>FILM</div>Best film, drama: &quot;The Brutalist&quot;Best film, musical or comedy: &quot;Emilia Perez&quot;Best director: Brady Corbet, &quot;The Brutalist&quot;Best actor, drama: Adrien Brody, &quot;The Brutalist&quot;Best actress, drama: Fernanda Torres, &quot;I&#x27;m Still Here&quot;Best actor, musical or comedy: Sebastian Stan, &quot;A Different Man&quot;Best actress, musical or comedy: Demi Moore, &quot;The Substance&quot;Best supporting actor: Kieran Culkin, &quot;A Real Pain&quot;Best supporting actress: Zoe Saldana, &quot;Emilia Perez&quot;Best screenplay: Peter Straughan, &quot;Conclave&quot;Best non-English language film: &quot;Emilia Perez&quot;Best original song: &quot;El Mal&quot;
