Overview
- O Agente Secreto won Best Film in a Non-English Language and Wagner Moura won Best Actor in a Motion Picture – Drama, while Hamnet took Best Motion Picture – Drama.
- Wagner Moura became the first Brazilian to win the Golden Globe for Best Actor in Drama, as Brazil also logged its first two-trophy haul in a single Globes edition and its first win in the non-English film category in 27 years.
- In acceptance remarks, Moura framed the film as about memory and generational trauma and closed in Portuguese, while director Kleber Mendonça Filho opened with “alô, Brasil” after Minnie Driver announced the film with a “Parabéns.”
- Brazilian leaders and institutions, including President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and the Culture Ministry, publicly celebrated the victories, driving strong social media reaction.
- Industry coverage cast the double win as a visibility boost ahead of Academy Award nominations in late February, capping a run that began with a Cannes Competition premiere.
