With award season just getting starting, the British Academy Film Awards (BAFTA) is another major one that seems to go unnoticed. This award ceremony is dedicated to awarding films created by British talent, but also contains many awards for films outside of the United Kingdom.
The nominations have recently been announced with The Favourite leading the pack with 12 nominations. Not only that, but Roma, A Star is Born, First Man and Bohemian Rhapsody also lead the BAFTA nominations with 7 for each film. Depending on what wins for this year’s BAFTA could determine the faith of the 2018 Oscar wins. Many are stating that Alfonso Cuaron’s Roma could easily win some of the major categories it is nominated for since all of its nominations at BAFTA are for big awards including Best Film not in an English Language and Best Director.
The ceremony will be held at the Royal Albert Hall in London on February 10.
