Inside the Golden Globes: What You Didn't See on Television

It's a game of seconds inside the packed ballroom as A-listers attempt to get in as many hugs and hellos as possible before the cameras start broadcasting to the world again.

It's a tricky room to navigate, packed to the brim with banquet tables. Some choose to stay put, like Steve Martin, a fortress in a well-guarded, hard-to-get-to seat against a wall. Others, like Andrew Scott and "Challengers" filmmaker Luca Guadagnino couldn't seem to stay in their seats - there's just too many fun people to chat with.

Nerves before the show

As the first major awards show of the year, a wide-open field of contenders, and a fairly new group of voters, there was a bit of nervous anticipation in the air as everyone wondered how the night would play out.

Former Spider-Man Andrew Garfield got caught in a logjam of celebrities blocking the stairs to the main floor. He made a "get going" gesture to Zendaya, whose new ring on her left hand had onlookers buzzing. But the train of her burnt orange Louis Vuitton ballgown was proving to be its own blockade. Garfield ran to the rescue, after giving Colman Domingo a quick kiss on the cheek and grabbed the back of the train to help Zendaya navigate the stairs, and Daniel Craig and Kate Winslet exchanged hellos.

The Future Is Bright For FranSeth

Both Francine Diaz and Seth Fedelin were nominated for their portrayals in Regal Entertainment's \"My Future You,\" as Lex and Karen—two young people who connect despite living in different timelines (15 years apart to be exact). Seth, in particular, went on to win the Breakthrough Performance Award for pulling off practically two versions of his character. It would be a waste not to see FranSeth in a followup project soon.
