It was so heartwarming to hear Nolan mention Heath Ledger. What a gentleman.

It breaks my heart to know that the last time he stand on the stage was to accept Heath Ledger's Golden Globe win on his behalf. Now he's accepting his own win by paying tribute to the legendary actor. I'm sure Heath would've been proud to see Nolan's success so far. It's okay if it's his first win after six nomination because you know as they say, better late than never 🤗

For someone who has always been so well spoken, you can hear he's pushing through nervousness with a slightly quivering voice while accepting this award and giving this speech. A very deserved win from a prolific director.

Chris Nolan is the reason I like movies. My top three movies are all made by him. It's about time he got recognition for his hard work. On to the Oscars Chris!

I love the beautiful mention of Heath and how Robert helped him :) It's about time Nolan won more awards 🙌

[cinemadrunk]

His win feels more like our win, he has been that one director who has matched art with commercial success in a time when it is rare. For me, Oppenheimer might just be his best film, and that is insane praise, I am obsessed with that movie.

So glad Emma Thomas got the speech at Best Picture. Hope Oppenheimer sweeps the Oscars!

To hear Heath's name still mentioned is so emotional, he is my hero and I will always miss him.. He still, to this day, continues to make me smile with his art. Forever your fan, Heath ❤️

It's CRAZY to think Nolan hasn't won any of the major awards until now. The only thing he won was a "Britannia Award", he should be swimming in awards for direction, best picture, writing, etc.

Well deserved, Congratulations Christopher Nolan

Most deserving director. Well done sir!

What baffles me is that this is his first golden globe. This man has been pushing boundaries in cinema, making his movies with little to no CGI, which shows his commitment to the viewers and his commitment to create a cinematic experience. All his movies are a complex study of human nature and human drives while tackling scientific and philosophical subjects. When you watch his movies, whether you like the concept or not, you cannot not appreciate the art and the mastery of craft that he presents. His mind is a wonder and he is simply one of the best, if not the best director of this generation.

After watching The Dark Knight, I refuse to allow myself to watch rubbish films anymore. Mr. Nolan raises the standard of films in me. Thank you so much and congrats on your well deserved award.

How dare they tell him to wrap it up, this man is one of the greatest artists of all time. He's given his soul to the world, let him have his speech. If they do this at the oscars....
