BAFTA Awards 2018 Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri

The winners of the 2018 BAFTA awards have been announced. The British Academy of Television Arts handed out the awards on Sunday night at London’s Royal Albert Hall. The ceremony was hosted by Joanna Lumley.

The big winner was "Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri", which took home five trophies for Best Film, Actress (Frances McDormand), Supporting Actor (Sam Rockwell), Original Screenplay and Best British Film. While Guillermo del Toro's "The Shape of Water" was considered a favorite with 12 nominations, it ultimately walked away with just three wins for Best Director, Music and Production Design.

As expected, Gary Oldman took home the award for Leading Actor, while Allison Janey won Supporting Actress for her performance in "I, Tonya". "Get Out" star Daniel Kaluuya won the Rising Star Award.

Boyhood wins Best Picture at 2015 BAFTA Awards

Well, this was unexpected. While "Birdman" was cleaning up all the Guild awards in the U.S., "Boyhood" created an upset by winning Best Film and Best Director (Richard Linklater) at the British Academy of Film and Television Arts Awards. The film also picked up an award for Supporting Actress (Patricia Arquette). The BAFTAs ignored "Birdman" for the top awards, but did send it home with a much deserved win for Cinematography (Emmanuel Lubezki).

"The Grand Budapest Hotel" was actually the big winner of the evening with a total of 5 awards, including Original Screenplay, Production Design and Original Music. "The Theory of Everything" scored wins for Best British Film and Leading Actor (Eddie Redmayne), and Julianne Moore took home the Leading Actress award for her performance in "Still Alice"
