British Film Awards With the Oscar ceremony less than two weeks away, the question is being asked, “Are the British film industry awards a precursor to what will occur in Hollywood come Academy Awards night?”
Lord of the Rings was the big winner at the annual BAFTA awards, picking up five statuettes: Best Picture, Cinematography, Adapted Screenplay and Special Effects, as well as film of the year as voted by the British public.
The BAFTA Best Actress award went to 19-year-old Scarlett Johansson (pictured above) for Lost in Translation, while co-star Bill Murray surprised, winning the award for Best Actor, besting competition including Sean Penn.
