Golden Globes 2024: Where to watch this year’s Best Film nominations on streaming services or in cinemas

The 81st Golden Globe Awards is set to kick off the 2024 awards season next weekend, with many using the ceremony as a gauge to help cement early Oscar predictions and gain a general flavour of what to expect ahead of the Emmys and the BAFTAs as part of the road to the Academy Awards. 

While there have been some obvious inclusions in the awards race this year in the field of cinema, with “Oppenheimer” and “Barbie” two standout nominees at the Golden Globes, several festival darlings NationalWorld has covered throughout our Cannes, London and Venice Film Festival coverage have also landed on the list - including French film “Anatomy of a Fall” which earned the Palme d’Or at Cannes Film Festival earlier this year.

Though a number of the films that are on the shortlist for a Golden Globe are available to rent or purchase through digital streaming services such as Prime Video or Rakuten TV, several others have yet to see their cinematic release in the United Kingdom or just coming to the end of their theatrical life before starting afresh on streaming services.

So ahead of the 81st Golden Globes ceremony next weekend, where can you catch up on this year’s nominees in the Drama, Music or Comedy and Animated Best Film categories in the United Kingdom and throw yourself, along with NationalWorld throughout the start of 2024, into the start of awards season.
