On the heels of the Academy Award nominations, the British Film Association announced the nominees for the annual BAFTA Awards.

The film “One Battle After Another” topped the list of nominees with 14 with “Sinners” following close behind with 13.  “Hamnet”, “Marty Supeme”, “Frankenstein”, “Sentimental Value”, “I, Swear”, “Bugonia”, “F1”, “The Ballad of Wallis Island”, and “Pillion” also garnered multiple nominations.

BAFTA Chief Executive Jane Millichip spoke on the nominees saying “the nominations recognized films like ‘One Battle After Another,’ ‘Sinners,’ tackling really big societal issues — the moral ambiguity of activism, Black identity, alongside films exploring the most intimate side of family relationships.”

Held nearly a month before the Oscars, the BAFTA Awards will air February 22 in London with actor Alan Cumming hosting the gala event.

Winners of the annual BAFTA Awards are selected by the 8,500 member UK film academy with the exception of the Rising Star Award which is chosen by the theatre going public.

While Washington D.C. is trying to suppress any form of diversity; the British film academy has sought to improve diversity among the ranks of the nominees.
