Be it endorsement for a book or political candidacy, Oprah Winfrey's credibility enables her to mobilize the masses. This time, the actor celebrated with the team of 'Black Panther' for their Golden Globe Nomination and she surely has all the best things to say.

In front of an audience of more than 100 members of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, Winfrey supported Disney's best picture contender 'Black Panther,' confirmed The Hollywood Reporter.

"I just wanted to say that when I first saw Black Panther, I sent an email to my friend Bobby and said, 'Hi Bobby! Just saw it. It's worth everything I've heard and more. A phenomenon in every way, on every level. Makes me tear up to think that little black children will grow up with 'Wakanda forever.' It's game-changing, it's pride-making, it's dazzling, it's phenomenal.' That was my personal review," she said.

Impressed by the director Ryan Coogler, and the star cast, including Chadwick Boseman, Michael B. Jordan and Daniel Kaluuya, the 64-year-old said that it is "something bigger than a movie" " and "actually had an impact on the world."

The 2018 hit has bagged a nomination for 2019 Golden Globes in Best Motion Picture category.
