BAFTAs 2018

in #hollywood7 years ago

the blistering comedy about injustice meted out to a woman in small-town America, fittingly took the major honours at a ceremony that took a stand against injustice meted out to women

The 71st British Academy Film Awards held on Sunday night at London's The Royal Albert Hall was a chip of the recently concluded Golden Globes, with celebrities slipping into black to mark their support for the Time's Up movement, which attempts to speak out against sexual harassment in the industry.

Three Billboards took home five awards, leaving behind Oscar front-runner The Shape Of Water - which led with 12 nominations - to bag a mere three. Gary Oldman became the only English actor to bag an acting title, the Best Actor Award, for his portrayal of Winston Churchill in Darkest Hour.

The only prize decided by the public, the EE Rising Star Award, went to British actor Daniel Kaluuya. The BAFTA fellowship went to director Sir Ridley Scott. It was the first ceremony presented by Joanna Lumley, who succeeded Stephen Fry.
