One of the best times of the year! That’s right, it’s the EE BAFTA Film Awards. A night where we shower praise on the best of the British Film Industry. With stars showing up in supporting the Times Up campaign, there was political tension on the red carpet that sparked political commentary in the speeches.

As always, the EE BAFTA Film Awards were all just a tad bit stiff, heinously predictable, and still extremely entertaining.

So who are the big winners of the night?

Three Billboards Just Outside Ebbing, Missouri was the big winner of the night scooping up it’s predictable awards in Best Original Screenplay, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor, Outstanding British Film, and the biggie – Best Picture. As admirable as these wins are, and certainly showcases the power of Martin McDonagh’s work and the acting talent in it, it just means we’re starring down a dead cert for the Academy Awards.

On that note, Allison Janney wins Best Supporting Actress for her work on I, Tonya but that win is spectacular.

Daniel Kaluuya scoop up the EE Rising Star Award (and delivered the best speech,) Best Adapted Screenplay went to James Ivory for Call Me By Your Name,  Outstanding British Debut went to I Am Not A Witch, whilst I Am Not Your Negro scooped up Best Documentary. The Handmaiden won for Best Film Not in the English Language and, yawn, Coco won Best Animation.

Again, predictable and a bit dull – the broadcasting needs a lot more than a new presenter to shake itself up. What does this mean for the Oscars? It means that they’ll be exactly like this. What do you think?
