Veteran filmmakers Martin Scorsese's "Silence" and Clint Eastwood's "Sully" were snubbed by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association's Golden Globe nominations that were announced today.
Neither the films nor the lead actors -Liam Neeson and Tom Hanks- were nominated in any of the categories of 74th Golden Globe Award.
Sci-fi film "Arrival," which earned two nods in best actress for Amy Adams and best original score category, was also not able to make it to the best picture nomination list.
Both "Hidden Figures" and "Fences" scored two nominations each, but were left out of a couple of top categories.
While "Manchester by the Sea" scored five nominations, just behind "La La Land" and "Moonlight," Lucas Hedges was left out of the best supporting actor drama category despite earning rave reviews for his performance.
Seth Rogen's critically-acclaimed film "Sausage Party" and one of the years most loved movie "Finding Dory" could not make it to the best animated film category while "Zootopia" earned a spot.
