Golden Globe Award for Best Actor – Motion Picture Drama
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Golden Globe Award for Best Actor - Motion Picture - Drama was first awarded by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association as a separate category in 1951. Previously, there was a single award for "Best Actor in a Motion Picture" but the splitting allowed for recognition of it and the Best Actor - Musical or Comedy.
The formal title has varied since its inception and as of 2005 is officially called: "Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture-Drama".
Notes:
- "†" indicates the winner of the Academy Award.
- "‡" indicates a Golden Globe Award winner who wasn't nominated for an Academy Award.
