The movie "Drive My Car," directed by Japanese filmmaker Ryusuke Hamaguchi, won the Golden Globe for best non-English language film on Sunday.

The film, based on a short story of the same title by novelist Haruki Murakami, recently won the top prize and was selected for three other awards by a U.S. film critic society, while it also won the award for best screenplay at the Cannes Film Festival last year.

The last time a Japanese film won a Golden Globe was in 1960, when Kon Ichikawa's "Odd Obsession" won the award for best foreign language film.
