1917 wins seven BAFTAs


Dean-Charles Chapman and George MacKay in Sam Mendes' 1917
Dean-Charles Chapman and George MacKay in 1917

I have very, very little to say about this year's BAFTAs, except that this could hardly be duller. The same four acting winners we've seen all season, the same movie winning the lion's share of the awards, the same Best Film winner we all predicted. Dull, dull, dull.


Check out the 2019 BAFTA award nominations here. They aren't any better.
