The Golden Globe Awards previously announced their full list of nominees for their various award categories, and Minari took the victory out of the nominees for Best Foreign Language Film, beating out Denmark’s Another Round, Guatemala and France’s La Llorona, Italy’s The Life Ahead, and France and the United States’ Two of Us.

While Minari was listed as a United States production, the movie’s dialogue heavily contains Korean, making it eligible to be nominated for Best Foreign Language Film.
