The 73rd British Academy Film Awards (BAFTAs) took place on February 2, 2020. The war drama film 1917 emerged as the top winner, taking home seven awards, including Best Film and Best Director for Sam Mendes. Joaquin Phoenix received the Best Actor award for his exceptional performance in Joker, while Renée Zellweger won Best Actress for Judy. Parasite was recognized as the Best Film Not in the English Language, and the animated film Klaus won Best Animated Film. The event celebrated outstanding achievements in film and showcased a diverse range of talents and genres..
There were few surprises this year with the BAFTA winners. The real question is what impact these winners will have on the Oscar voters, who will hand in their ballots on February 4th. 1917 seems to have all the momentum going into the final week with wins at the Golden Globes, Producers Guild, Directors Guild, and now at BAFTA. I will have my final predictions later this week.
