There's the full list. I love so many of these movies, it just makes me happy to see them nominated. I also love that the BAFTAs have a section for "First British Film" because they get to highlight great work by first-time filmmakers who otherwise aren't getting any recognition during this awards season. Specifically, I'm happy to see The Girl with All the Gifts and Under the Shadow nominated there. I'm also very happy American Honey is nominated. The EE British Academy Film Awards take place on Sunday, February 12th at the Royal Albert Hall in South Kensington, London. The ceremony will be hosted by Stephen Fry and will be broadcast exclusively on BBC One and BBC One HD, preceded by a red carpet show. Thoughts?
