Nicole Kidman won best actress in a limited series at the Golden Globes, for her work as Celeste in HBO's "Big Little Lies."

The Oscar-winning actress thanked her female co-stars during the speech and used the time to praise the "power of women" and also took the opportunity to speak out against the subject of abuse in the film industry.

“This character that I played represents something that is the centre of our conversation right now: abuse. I do believe and I hope that we can elicit change through the stories we tell and the way we tell them.”

In addition to thanking her husband, Keith Urban, she also thanked her mother; “My momma was an advocate for the women’s movement when I was growing up, and because of her I’m standing here. My achievements are her achievements.”
