Last night, the United Kingdom had their big night for Hollywood at the 69th BAFTA Awards, honoring the best in film from last year (2015). These awards don't really have a major influence on the Oscars, but it's always interesting to see who our friends across the pond decide to hand out awards to. The selection of winners this year is quite diverse, with all of the best films from last year winning at least once in different categories. The Big Short won for Best Screenplay, Brooklyn won for Best British Film, The Hateful Eight won for Best Soundtrack, Inside Out won for Best Animation, Mad Max: Fury Road won for Best Hair & Make-Up, and The Revenant won for Best Film, just to start. Read on for the full list of 2016 winners below.

Congratulations to all of this year's winners and nominees. I'm always quite satisfied with the films that end up taking home awards at the BAFTAs, as they seem to be a bit better about picking the best stuff. I still prefer the documentary Sherpa over everything else, and I'm glad it was nominated. I'm surprised to see Alejandro G. Iñárritu winning Best Director, again, but everyone seems to love The Revenant so much that it went on to win for Best Film anyway. I'm very happy that Brooklyn also won a big prize for Best British Film, and it's great to see John Boyega chosen as the Rising Star (one of the awards selected by the general public). Overall this seems like a good variety of winners among an excellent set of nominees. Thoughts?
