Hollywood's A-listers walked the red carpet Sunday, January 11, ahead of the Golden Globes, with the politically charged One Battle After Another expected to solidify its status as the film to beat this awards season. With nine nominations, One Battle appears a lock to take home the prize for Best Film Comedy/Musical.

Paul Thomas Anderson's screwball thriller, which centers on an aging revolutionary (Leonardo DiCaprio) and his teenage daughter (Chase Infiniti), is a rollicking ride featuring violent leftist radicals, immigration raids and white supremacists. At a time when the United States is deeply polarized, many critics and pundits have hailed the film as capturing the moment.

DiCaprio will vie for Best Actor at the Globes – a sometimes eccentric bellwether for the Academy Awards – with Timothee Chalamet, who stars in Marty Supreme as an ambitious 1950s table tennis player.
