Birdman soars again: Hollywood satire leads Golden Globe nominations with 7

Alejandro Gonzalez Iñárritu's Birdman is flying high with seven nominations for the 72nd annual Golden Globe Awards.

The list of contenders for the industry awards in television and film were announced Thursday morning in Beverly Hills, Calif.

Iñárritu's Hollywood satire picked up nods in major categories including best motion picture, best screenplay and best supporting actor for Edward Norton. The dark comedy, which centres on a fading action hero trying to reclaim his fame on Broadway, also dominated the Screen Actors Guild nominations announced Wednesday.

The Golden Globe's controlling body, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA), also recognized Richard Linklater's experimental coming-of-age story Boyhood and the Alan Turning biopic The Imitation Game with five nominations each.
