The 78th Golden Globes, which will be held in February next year, have not announced official candidates for each category so far. However, Variety reported that the movie will not be nominated for the Best Picture at the 78th Golden Globe Awards because it failed to meet the guideline ŌĆ£must feature at least 50% English dialogue.ŌĆØ Oscar-winning film Parasite received the same treatment last year. Director Lee Isaac ChungŌĆÖs Minari stars Steven Yeun, Han Ye Ri, Alan Kim, Noel Kate Cho, Youn Yuh Jung, and Will Patton. With this decision, more industry insiders are criticizing Hollywood for its ŌĆ£outdatedŌĆØ rules. Director Lulu Wang spoke out HFPAŌĆÖs ŌĆ£antiquated rules that characterize American as only English-speaking,ŌĆØ and stressed that Minari is ŌĆ£a story about an immigrant family, IN America, pursuing the American dream.ŌĆØ Daniel Dae Kim also expressed his perplexity, saying, ŌĆ£The film equivalent of being told to go back to your country when that country is actually America.ŌĆØ Harry Shum Jr. tweeted that Inglourious Basterds, spoken in English, German, French and Italian, didnŌĆÖt receive the same treatment.
