The stars and artists behind the biggest films of 2023 descended on London this weekend for the BAFTA Film Awards. British film’s biggest night is often seen as the best predictor of Oscar momentum before the Academy Awards and the results often mirror each other.
If that’s the case this year, it will be all “Oppenheimer” all the time. Universal’s Christopher Nolan epic took home many of the night’s biggest categories, winning the top prize of Best Film along with Best Director for Nolan, Leading Actor for Cillian Murphy, and Supporting Actor for Robert Downey Jr. The film also picked up major craft wins for Cinematography, Editing, and Original Score.
While the dominant showing makes an “Oppenheimer” Oscar sweep seem even more likely, Yorgos Lanthimos’ “Poor Things” won for Costume Design, Makeup & Hair, Production Design, and Visual Effects, and star Emma Stone won Leading Actress for her...

The BAFTA Awards were presented on February 18 by the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA). So who prevailed? Scroll down for the complete 2024 BAFTA Awards winners list in all categories.
BAFTA is an independent arts charity that comprises thousands of industry insiders, much like the American motion picture academy. The BAFTAs could well give us a preview of what the Oscars might do in three weeks time on March 10. And with voting for the Oscars kicking off on February 22, this precursor could have an outsized influence.
Until 2013, the entire BAFTA membership decided the nominees in a complicated two-part process that involved a lot of longlists with the general membership deciding the semi-finalists and the branches making the final determination of the nominees. This was replaced in 2013 by a system more akin to the Oscars where nominations were determined by each branch (except for Best Picture). Two years ago,...

There were numerous shocks and surprises among this year’s list of BAFTA nominees. Most of the headlines were dedicated to “Barbie” and its omission from both the best film and director categories, while many saw Andrew Scott’s failure be nominated for his lead role in “All of Us Strangers” an unforgivable snub.
But away from the big, buzzy studio titles with plenty of publicity-fueled firepower behind them, a small, very low-budget British documentary landed an unexpected — but very welcome — slot in the outstanding debut by a British writer, director or producer category.
A deeply personal and unflinching portrait of a life touched by addiction, “Blue Bag Life” draws on photos and videos taken over many years by the artist Lisa Selby that she had originally been posting to an Instagram account. Following the death of her estranged addict mother and her partner’s relapse and incarceration, Selby embarks...

The 2024 BAFTA film awards nominations are in, and Universal’s historical epic Oppenheimer, directed by Christopher Nolan, leads the way with 13 nods, followed by Disney-owned Searchlight Pictures’ Poor Things from director Yorgos Lanthimos with 11.
Overall, Disney and Searchlight lead the way with 22 total nominations, according to statistics provided by BAFTA.

Also boosting the Disney tally are single noms for Pixar’s Elemental, which is up for best animated film, and Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, which is up for a special visual effects BAFTA.
Meanwhile, Universal earned 14 nominations on Thursday, including one for Earth Mama which got Savanah Leaf (writer, director, producer), Shirley O’Connor (producer) and Medb Riordan (producer) a nod in the Outstanding Debut by a British writer, director or producer category.

Christopher Nolan’s “Oppenheimer” appears to be the film to beat going into the 2024 BAFTA Film Awards, having landed 13 nominations, with the director’s most successful film in the U.K. in terms of box office now becoming its most-nominated on home soil.
Announced Thursday from London, the atomic bomb biopic is nominated for best film, director (which could earn Nolan his shocking first-ever BAFTA), leading actor for Cillian Murphy and supporting nods for both Emily Blunt and Robert Downey Jr.
Close behind sits Yorgos Lanthimos’ steampunk black comedy “Poor Things” with 11 nominations, including for best film and actress for Emma Stone.
But for all the achievements of “Oppenheimer” and “Poor Things,” the biggest talking point is likely to be the snubbing of Greta Gerwig’s box office destroying cultural phenomenon “Barbie” across so many categories.
The film went into the nominations tied with both “Oppenheimer” and “Killers of the Flower Moon” with 15 Longlist slots.

Blue Bag Life, Lisa Selby’s intimate documentary about her mother’s death, inspired the film-makers to adopt a new, more collective way of working
When I call artist and lecturer Lisa Selby, I’ve just finished watching her documentary about her own life: an intimate, raw film touching on addiction, motherhood and trauma rumbling down through generations. So, when her face pings up on my computer, I feel as if I already know the funny, warm woman at the other end of the call.
“Are you Ok?” Selby asks, peering down her screen. “You’ve taken in a lot of information today.” It’s a Friday afternoon. She’s in her front room in Nottingham, the walls behind her a lovely shade of forest green, books and plants on the shelves; the dog is dozing on the sofa. It’s kind of her to ask, but really it should...
