•Colin started with gushing over Ana de Armas' performance in Blonde and spent most of his speech praising his coworkers
•When talking about co-star Brendan Gleeson he said, "Brendan, I love you so much. I love you so much. To get to cohabitate this creative space with you every day, all I did when I came to work every day was aspire to be your equal. I'm not saying I even got there, but the aspiration kept me going.”
•People are responding well to Colin's earnest speech and heartfelt exchange with Brendan with one writer saying that the speech left toxic masculinity "dead in a ditch"
This speech. Colin Farrell telling Brendan Gleeson he loves him. The emotion. The charisma… Toxic masculinity found dead in a ditch!!!! #GoldenGlobes pic.twitter.com/xWGngZ9UId
