One thing you can count on with “Emilia Perez” star Karla Sofia Gascón is she is going to speak her mind. Such was the case last night at the Golden Globes when the fantastic Spanish-language musical, which is directed by Jacques Audiard, won for Best Picture.
Speaking about her orange dress, Gascón said, “I chose these colors tonight — the Buddhist colors — because I have a message for you.
The light always wins over darkness. You can put us in jail, you can beat us up, but you can never take away our soul or our resistance or our identity.
I want to say to you, raise your voice and say that I won, I am who I am, not who you want [me to be].” “Emilia Pérez” was the most-nominated film of the evening and was honored with four Golden Globe awards for Best Film – Musical or Comedy, Supporting Female Actor (Zoe Saldaña), Original Song, and Film not in the English Language.
