Μπορεί στήν χώρα μας, να ετοιμάζονται όλοι για τα κούλουμα και το πέταγμα του χαρταετού, στήν Αγγλία όμως είχαμε βραβεία. Και οχι κάποια απλά βραβεία. Βραβεία που, ειδικά χθές, έδειξαν τον δρόμο πρός τα ….Oscar.
Χθές, λοιπόν, Κυριακή 18/2 έγινε με πάσα λαμπρότητα στο Royal Albert Hall του Λονδίνου η 71η τελετή των βραβείων BAFTA.
Σε μια απονομή χωρίς τις μεγάλες εκπλήξεις, με δυνατές υποψηφιότητες και με τα The Shape of Water, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri και Darkest Hour να κυριαρχούν, ολοκληρώθηκε η φετινή απονομή, στην οποία κυριάρχησαν και πάλι τα μηνύματα κατά της σεξουαλικής παρενόχλησης.
Το δράμα του Martin McDonagh, Three Billboard Outside Ebbing, Missouri σάρωσε τα BAFTA, κερδίζοντας το μεγάλο βραβείο της καλύτερης ταινίας, αλλά και το βραβείο της καλύτερης βρετανικής ταινίας, ενω η Frances McDormand, για την ίδια ταινία, “έφυγε” και απο την Αγγλία με το βραβείο της καλύτερης ηθοποιού για τον ρόλο της μητέρας η οποία αναζητάει την δικαιοσύνη για την δολοφονία της κόρης της.
Ο McDonagh, μπορεί να έχασε το βραβείο σκηνοθεσίας, το οποίο κατέληξε στα χέρια του Guillermo del Toro, κέρδισε όμως το βραβείο σεναρίου, ενα απο τα μεγαλύτερα “όπλα” και υπεύθυνο για την επιτυχία της ταινίας του.
Ο Gary Oldman, κέρδισε το Bafta καλύτερου ηθοποιού για την ερμηνεία του στην ταινία The Darkest Hour όπου υποδύεται τον Winston Churchill, επικρατώντας των Daniel Day-Lewis (Phantom Thread), Daniel Kaluuya (Get Out), Jamie Bell (Film Stars Don’t Die in Liverpool) και Timothée Chalamet (Call Me By Your Name).
