"I turned 60 last year. And I think all of you women understand this: as the days, the years and the numbers get bigger, it seems like opportunities start to get smaller. "And I probably was at a time when I thought, 'well hey, you had a really good run, you worked with some of the best people... then along came the best gift - Everything Everywhere All at Once." - Michelle Yeoh accepting her award for best actress in a motion picture - musical or comedy. The 80th annual Golden Globe Awards have taken place in Los Angeles. The Banshees of Inisherin won three major prizes at the Golden Globes' comeback ceremony. The film took home best comedy or musical film and best screenplay, as well as best comedy actor for its star, Irish actor Colin Farrell. Steven Spielberg's autobiographical The Fabelmans was also one of the big winners, scooping best drama film. School-based comedy Abbott Elementary, Game of Thrones prequel House of the Dragon and satirical dark comedy The White Lotus were among the winners in the television categories. Other big film winners included Everything Everywhere All at Once, which saw acting prizes for two of its stars, Michelle Yeoh and Ke Huy Quan. The madcap sci-fi movie sees Yeoh play a laundrette worker who hops through the multiverse exploring different versions of herself. Jennifer Coolidge gave one of the most memorable acceptance speeches, entertaining the audience for almost four minutes after winning one of the TV acting awards for The White Lotus, which was also named best limited TV series. "I had such big dreams and expectations as a younger person, but they get sort of fizzled by life," the 61-year-old said. "I thought I was going to be queen of Monaco, even though someone else did it. I had these giant ideas, and then you get older..."
