'Loving' actress Ruth Negga is one of Ireland's front-runners for a Golden Globe award on Sunday night.
Ethiopian-born Negga is nominated for Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture - Drama.
She plays Mildred Loving - one half of an interracial couple, whose challenge of their anti-miscegenation arrest for their marriage in Virginia led to a legal battle that would end at the US Supreme Court.
