The 2024 Golden Globes are Sunday, Jan. 7 and Carey Mulligan is among the actresses that have been honored with a nomination. Her performance as Felicia Montealegre, the famous film and stage actress, in Maestro was transcendent. Montealegre was serious about her craft just as her husband, acclaimed American composer Leonard Bernstein, was but their love is a story all its own in the film.

Mulligan captures the joie de vivre of Felicia's youth on the outset of her career as she begins to fall for Lenny, becomes aware of the sheer space he takes up, and adjusts to make room for herself. And when it's clear that her husband cannot live up to the letter of their agreement which required discretion when it comes to his dalliances, Mulligan's simmering anger which explodes when pushed is captivating. There's also a well of love that exudes from her as Felicia even in her character's most trying times with her husband and, by the end of the movie, as her health declines you can see the light we saw in the beginning fade even as her heart remains with him and their children.

It is not surprising that Mulligan is up for Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Motion Picture – Drama. Her performance speaks for itself and, if you haven't seen it, you should stream Maestro on Netflix. But this is not the first time the actress has been nominated for a Golden Globe; it's her fourth. She's yet to win but perhaps 2024 may be her year.

Here's where you can stream Carey Mulligan's previous Golden Globe nominated films and what they're about:

Two years later, in 2022, Mulligan starred in She Said opposite Zoe Kazan (Jodi Kantor). Her portrayal of Megan Twohey, one half of the reporting duo who exposed Harvery Weinstein's long history of sexual misconduct and abuse against the women in his orbit, earned her a Golden Globe nomination for Best Actress - Motion Picture.
