The 73rd BAFTA (British Academy Film and Television Awards) film awards have been held in London in the evening on Sunday, February 2, 2020. Considered as the British equivalent of the Oscars, BAFTAs is a celebration of the good in cinema be it Hollywood, British or international. With Oscars merely a week away, BAFTA 2020 could give us a good indication as to which movie could bag the most of the nominations, and even the Best Film award. With Sam Mendes' 1917, Taika Waititi's Jojo Rabbitt, Martin Scorsese's The Irishman, Bong Joon-Ho's Parasite in tough competition, it's going to something movie buffs have a lot to discuss. Helen Mirren Slams BAFTA Over All-White Nominations.
The awards ceremony this year was hosted by Graham Norton. As expected it was Sam Mendes' 1917 that scored the maximum number of awards, including the Best Director and the Best Film. Joaquin Phoenix took the Best Actor Award for Joker, while Renee Zellweger scored the Best Actress award for Judy. Brad Pitt won the Best Supporting Actor award (Once Upon A Time in Hollywood), and Laura Dern got Best Supporting Actress Award for Marriage Story. The Korean masterpiece, Parasite, took the awards for the Best Film Not in English Language and Original Screenplay.
