The Oscars and Golden Globes are two prestigious awards in the film industry. The first Oscars ceremony was in 1929 with 270 people in attendance, while the first Golden Globes was in 1944 and held at 20th Century Fox studios. Both awards have evolved over the decades and now the Oscars are voted on by the Academy while the Golden Globes are voted on and given out by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association to honor excellence in film and television.
