A new era in hollywood. Tonight. Women dont black dresses for the seventy fifth billowed Golden Globes and a show of support for victims of Sexual Harassment and abuse in the Entertainment Industry making me to move to the nights biggest winner also coming up day two of exploratory Coalition Talks between uncle americas conservatives and the social democrats theyve promised a new style of politics for germany but can they deliver. Hello im terry Martin Thanks for joining us hollywood has made a powerful statement against Sexual Harassment and abuse at the seventy fifth Golden Globes event kicks off awards season but was overshadowed by months about allegations against men in the Entertainment Industry in a show of solidarity some of the worlds most photographed women wore black transforming the red carpets normal glitz and glamour. They stood arm in arm women from the world of film music and sport dressed in black showing solidarity their message sexism and Sexual Violence will no longer be tolerated they may be hollywoods elite but many here have their own heart wrenching stories of Sexual Harassment and assault. There was no there were drawing a big black hole on the tree yesterday to mark the way things used to be the way business used to be done to be that way you are i think its amazing i think its historic and i love seeing solidarity an arab industry shining a light for all industries across all countries and this is the time to change everything it should be shouldnt even have to have this conversation with clearly we do feel like a mother with that conversation continued inside susan eighteen marijuana is finally allowed in Sexual Harassment finally is it was already there. And in a rousing speech oprah vowed that change was on the horizon for too long women have not been heard or believed if they dared to speak their truth to the power of those men. But their time is up. And that message was the biggest winner of the night. Thank. You culture editor karen helm has been looking at that Award Ceremony in the the me too movement and times up as it were took center stage at the awards ceremony last night how did the protest movement make itself felt during the ceremony well as you can see a lot of emotion i mean there were there were quite a few moments especially amongst when that when the women were giving their their acceptance speeches i think this is really going to affect the whole season terry i mean this is obviously the first awards season post Harvey Weinstein and i think it would be pretty safe to say it looks like its going to be a season of of discontent the mood there last night was good but very somber and obviously a lot more political an emcee seth meyers really didnt pull any punches i mean there were some some some very close he said he even said so himself to. Figures like weinstein and kevin spacey they were the butt of several jokes that need to has morphed into times out but she said im thats an initiative of over three hundred women from all across hollywood who are saying its time to stop for harassment and for lack of accountability in the industry so women were interesting the as i said very very vocal on the red carpet already and in their speeches but the disappointing thing is that the men were very un vocal and theres been a lot of noise about that on twitter and maybe we can just have a look at one of them here. This is a twit tweet that says not a single man who accepted a Golden Globes tonight spoke out about Sexual Assault me two or times up wearing a black tux you know isnt enough we need men to speak up and stand beside us to fight and to end Sexual Assault and rape culture there were a lot of other tweets in that vein so definitely there is. You know the that lack of vocal vocal part of men was noticed and theres a lot of work to be done is this is this protest movement karen is addressing Sexual Harassment exclusively or are there other issues at stake here absolutely there are a lot i mean obviously with the times that with the development of the times up initiative there calling for the end of harassment and this culture of sexual abuse but also for more diversity more gender parity and equal pay this is still an issue in two thousand and eighteen especially in the Entertainment Industry but of course in all others and and there was lots of criticism actually about the nature of the protest on twitter too we can have a look at another one here from conny when who is the a fashion writer and she wrote for several tweets but this one we chose mandating that everyone wears black gives the false illusion that everyone is on board with wage parity professionalism in the workplace and treating all People Fairly and humanely its naive to think that this is true and counterproductive to fake solidarity so the times up. Initiative really trying to address a lot of the deeper systemic issues in the industry and across all industries i mean they really are making a plea to victims of this kind of treatment and behavior and and lack of equality in all sectors so hopefully well see a lot of momentum i mean that this is something were going to be talking about for a while i think clearly a lot of talk about about abuse and excuse exclusion at these awards ceremonies this year but of course there with films to talk about too should move on to. Talk about this year about what weve saw the german movie in the fate understand took award for the best Foreign Language production is the german turkish director of party its from your term Interest Rate your body or king and stars the actors joining him there john kruger it tells a story of a woman whose husband and son are killed in a bombing she suspects neo nazis were behind the blast the film echoes the so called. If you attack a neo nazi terrorist cell that. Germany in the present years theres still a lot of fallout from the german director there taking home work for best Foreign Language Film Production tell us a little bit about in the fade as the film is called briefly an incredibly intense story and a very very strong story that sort of sort of takes a kind of an element of this kind of a situation that you just mentioned with the end as you scandal and i was thinking very deeply to german audiences because of that we are still in the midst of the trial of the only surviving and as you orchestrator and its been over four hundred days and its going on costing all kinds of money to taxpayers so very personal film for such a team and for a very Stephen Conroy terry on the justice system. So its very gratifying that its striking such a chord with foreign audiences and the role of a lifetime diane kruger very already took best actress that you kind of time for diane kruger and of course other films and it notable films you want to mention yes theres a known to its notable our women in on the side of another the films are best film for drama and best film for comedy at the Golden Globes they get split up a bit and dont have to really all compete together three billboards outside ebing missouri one over dunkirk and over the post for the best drama and i think thats interesting heading into the oscars the shape of water really didnt get talked about much a tall in the wake of all of this so im not ladybird also of gregor wait for another Strong Female performance a female director ok if they get another chance at the oscars and host up from our culture desk thank you so much as you terry. Now lets look at some other stories making news around the world today that the words have warned that in the rayney an Oil Tanker Burning off chinas east coast is in danger of exploding more than thirty crew members remain missing after the tanker collided with a freighter over the weekend the impact on the environment could be the worst since nine hundred ninety one when two hundred sixty thousand tons of oil leaked all the angolan coast. In vietnam a trial has opened against a former Oil Executive who was allegedly kidnapped from germany and taken to hanoi is facing corruption charges that could carry the Death Penalty germany has accused vietnam of ordering the abduction of the executive from a park here in berlin last year. A broken water pipe has disrupted travel at new yorks flagship j. F. K. Airport adding to worries for passengers theyre already stranded by a blizzard Officials Say bad weather appeared to have caused the pipe to break and therefore it is morning and further delayed. And a heat wave has hit australia with sydney reporting its highest temperature in almost eight decades with the mercury topping forty seven degrees celsius many people headed to the beaches to cool off the extreme heat calls some traffic lights and even cash points to stop working. Well germanys main Political Parties have begun a second day of talks aimed at the forming a new government. Conservative the social democrats have governed in a coalition for the last four years but both have been eager to promise voters a fresh start well thats after they scored historically poor results in september elections today its europe thats up for discussion. By paul pillar of germanys foreign policy. It was the cd use turn to host exploratory talks between uncle americas conservative bloc and the social democrats on the second day of the negotiations europe top the agenda. Himself a former president of the European Parliament wants germany to play a stronger role within the e. U. Europe must be one of the new governments main topics no matter what the government might look like not just hope that im. The who will find will be able to reach an agreement today that allows germany to once again be the motor of the e. U. At least this is all coming goal. Of mine so i must see the negotiating parties had agreed up front on maintaining confidentiality most statements today reflect this the information on potential agreements remains relatively sparse but some came through anyway most probably the conservatives and the social democrats have found a compromise on taxes greening to raise the bar for a top income tax rate but officials refused to comment. If we all put in some effort and the mood remains as good as house been in the past few days then maybe we can achieve something a lot of work still lies ahead of us. S. The talks will go on until thursday then the parties will have to decide whether they want to enter into more specific negotiations the social democrats believe in hold an extra Party Convention at the end of the month during the talks at the seaview headquarters in berlin porus is our Political Correspondent killer lawson shows there sounds like hes doing his best to appear optimistic about forming another coalition with battles conservatives does the s. P. D. Party as a whole share the optimism. Absolute you know this is the democrats actually in this city she is the very martin so when after those Election Results came out in september sewing that america had lost significantly and the social democrats had lost significantly and then she turned around said he would not stand for another grand coalition and now hes sitting in the building behind me with the german chancellor talking about exactly that that didnt go down well with the grass roots of the social democrats in fact right to the top of the party there are many skeptics whether this indeed could be the right course for the party but in the end martin souls argued it was the responsibility of the social democrats to at least Start Talking after that initial attempt to forge a coalition between the green party in the free democrats basically failed so thats where we are right now with a big question mark hanging over what at whatever might come out of this where the social democrat grassroots to get to vote on this would agree to it at all they can tell us what are the biggest sticking points in these talks in terms of policy. Well today they are talking about europe and theyre really the parties arent absolutely miles apart and so its speaking to his own party has a much talk tough a stance hes pro integration he wants to see by twenty twenty five states moving much closer together hed like to really go along with what in manoa mccall of france said physically on euro policy and beyond that now the c. D. U. Is against having that much closer integration in the sense of financial responsibility for other european states but these are all issues that the parties can reasonably talk about what seems to be much trickier domestic issues like the Health Care System here in germany the social democrats would really have to deliver a complete change in the structure of abolishing the private insurance here in germany to really demonstrate that they can really make their mark in a further continuation of the grand coalition the c. D. U. Has completely ruled that out by now and then of course there are migrants where the social democrats really dont want to see a further tightening of regulations so both parties miles apart but as they say at least willing to talk about their differences behala thank you to w. s Political Correspondent jim acosta in washington still to come it could be another record breaking year for the New York Stock Exchange with more i. P. O. s than ever before among them the worlds most valuable company ben presumably here with just a moment with that and much much more dont go away
