BAFTA British Oscars Strong for Manchester, La La, Moonlight– Scorsese’s Silence Snubbed, Along with Eastwood, Washington, Hanks.

Share

BAFTA nominees are largely American films that we’ve seen in other settings. Brit Ken Loach got a lot for “I Daniel Blake.” No one in America knows his work. BAFTA snubbed Tom Hanks, Clint Eastwood, Denzel Washington, and Martin Scorsese.  “Loving” was also completely snubbed. But Tom Ford’s “Nocturnal Animals” made a bit of a comeback, which is nice. No Isabelle Huppert, but “Elle” wasn’t elligible. Emily Blunt took her place.  Does any of this matter with the Oscars?  A little, not a lot.
