00:00This is ours to share. Wow, the power of women.
00:02HBO's Big Little Lies had a big, no, huge night at the 75th annual Golden Globes on Sunday,
00:08winning Best Limited Series or TV Movie. But that's not all. Nicole Kidman, Alexander SkarsgĂĄrd,
00:14and Laura Dern all took home performance awards for their roles in the series.
00:17First, Kidman kicked off the night by winning her fourth Golden Globe, this one for Best Actress
00:22in a Limited Series or TV Movie. She gave a heartfelt speech shouting out her fellow nominee
00:26and collaborator Reese Witherspoon. She said,
00:29We did this because of our friendship, our creative union, and our support of each other.
00:34And I love you. She went on to tell the audience,
00:36This character that I played represents something that is the center of our conversation right now, abuse.
00:41I do believe and I hope we can elicit change through the stories we tell and the way we tell them.
00:48Let's keep the conversation alive.
00:49And on a personal note, Kidman gave this adorable tear-jerking nod to her husband, Keith Urban.
00:54When my cheek is against yours, everything melts away. And that is love.
00:59Later, Kidman's TV husband, SkarsgĂĄrd, won Best Supporting Actor in a Limited Series or TV Movie.
01:04And during his acceptance speech, he kept the theme of female empowerment going, saying,
01:08I'm here tonight because I had a privilege of working with a group of extraordinarily talented women.
01:13And not long after, the HBO series was honored again when Dern won Best Supporting Actress in a Limited Series
01:19or TV Movie. She also spoke about female empowerment and the Me Too movement, saying,
01:23Many of us were taught not to tattle. It was a culture of silencing and that was normalized.
01:28I urge all of us to not only support survivors and bystanders who are brave enough to tell their truth,
01:36but to promote restorative justice.
01:39She added,
01:39May we also please protect and employ them.
01:42And finally, the icing on the Big Little Lies cake came when the series won for Best Limited Series or TV Movie,
01:48beating out Fargo, Feud Betty and Joan, The Sinner, and Top of the Lake China Girl.
01:52While accepting the award, Witherspoon also spoke to the Me Too movement. She told the crowd,
01:57I want to thank everyone who broke their silence this year and spoke up about abuse and harassment.
02:02You are so brave. And hopefully shows like this, more will be made. So people out there who are feeling silenced by harassment,
02:09discrimination, abuse, time is up.
02:12We see you. We hear you. And we will tell your stories.
