BAFTA Announces Nominations for EE British Academy Film Awards 2018

With the #BAFTA nominations 2 hours away I’m going to just say look out for You Were Never Really Here, Cold War, BlacKkKlansman, Widows, Stan and Ollie – and much less of Bohemian Rhapsody, Green Book, Vice. Roma and The Favourite definitely in Best Film.

As expected, The Favourite tops the BAFTA nominations tally with 12. Bohemian Rhapsody and First Man hit 7 nods, without Best Film mention, whereas Roma and A Star Is Born both make the cut. Popular awards season movies like Vice, BlacKkKlansman, and Green Book also score well. There were also some extended love to Cold War, including Paweł Pawlikowski nominated for Director, as well as Can You Ever Forgive Me?, Mary Poppins Returns, Mary Queen of Scots, and Stan & Ollie – with Steve Coogan shortlisted for Best Actor.
