BAFTA came and went with the almost all of the Oscar frontrunners crowned. The only real surprise was Parasite taking Best Original Screenplay rather than a Tarantino victory though that shouldn't be a surprise given the Korean hits ingenious construction and terrific dialogue. After the jump the winners list in some speeches...
BEST FILM “1917”
Cementing its lead for the Oscar though we still hope that the preferential ballot helps Parasite surprise.
BEST DIRECTOR "1917"
LEADING ACTRESS RENÉE ZELLWEGER “Judy"
LEADING ACTOR JOAQUIN PHOENIX “Joker”
Phoenix called the British Academy out on their racism.
SUPPORTING ACTRESS LAURA DERN “Marriage Story”
We've been writing about awards season for 20 years now and it will literally never stop being weird to us that every organization wants the exact same 4 people to give speeches!
SUPPORTING ACTOR BRAD PITT “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood”
Margot Robbie accepted the award for Brad, giving at least some variety to awards season -- Brad and Leo were both absent from the BAFTAs.
