While this year's Golden Globe director nominees include an unprecedented three women — Emerald Fennell (Promising Young Woman), Regina King (One Night in Miami) and Chloé Zhao (Nomadland) — in 1984, Barbra Streisand was an anomaly.

That night she became the first — and to this day, only — woman to win that Globe, for Yentl.The musical saw Streisand playing a young Jewish woman in 1904 Poland who masquerades as a man to study in a yeshiva, where she falls for another student (Mandy Patinkin).

In accepting the directing award, Streisand said, "I'm very proud because it also represents, I hope, new opportunities for so many talented women to try to make their dreams become realities, as I did." The remarks drew warm applause.

Peaky Blinders’ Arthur Shelby star Paul Anderson looks totally different in real life

Peaky Blinders’ Arthur Shelby actor Paul Anderson looks a world away from the tough ‘hardman’ role he plays on the BBC drama. The show has just kicked off its sixth and final series with Cillian Murphy’s character Tommy Shelby’s older brother Arthur becoming a fan favourite in the series, which follows the life of a gangster family living in Birmingham in the early 20th century. As perhaps the most brutal of the Shelby clan, Arthur is known for his intense fighting skills and violent behaviour - including beating someone to death with a hammer and killing a child at a boxing match.
