ATLANTA — The 77th Annual Golden Globes are happening this weekend, and there are a few Georgia-filmed projects nominated this year.
The state's movie industry is moving full-speed ahead.
Two Georgia productions made the nominations list for the Golden Globes. Joey King is up for "Best Television Performance By An Actress In A Limited Series" for her role in "The Act," which was filmed in Savannah.
Patricia Arquette is up for Best Supporting Actress for her role in "The Act" as well, but the production that caused a big stir around metro Atlanta is also up for an award.
Kathy Bates scored a Best Supporting Actress nomination for her role in "Richard Jewell".
The Clint Eastwood film follows the story of a security guard wrongfully accused in the 1996 Olympic bombing in Atlanta.
Jewell was later cleared of any suspicion, but this new movie was accused of painting someone else in a bad light, former Atlanta Journal Constitution reporter Kathy Scruggs played by Olivia Wilde.
The film portrays Scruggs as a reporter who traded sex for stories. The AJC says that is far from the truth.
The paper even sent a letter to Eastwood and Warner Brothers demanding a disclaimer that some events in the film were "imagined for dramatic purposes”.
