Edward Berger’s anti-war drama All Quiet on the Western Front won Best Picture and Best Picture at the BAFTA Film Awards on Sunday. Nominated in a staggering 14 categories, the French/German Netflix release won a total of seven awards.

The second-best performer was Martin McDonagh’s The Banshees of Inisherin, which picked up four awards. McDonagh’s existential comedy was nominated in 10 categories.

Russia’s ongoing military assault on Ukraine appears to have weighed on the minds of BAFTA voters (many attendees wore blue badges to show their support for Ukraine). Navalny, about the Russian dissident, won in the Documentary category, trumping the Indian entry All That Breathes.

The event in London, hosted by Richard E Grant and Allison Hammond, was graced by Prince William and Catherine, Princess of Wales. The awards are being streamed in India on Lionsgate Play.

In his opening monologue, the host made a pitch for more work by reading out his supposed resume: “Richard E Grant. Acting age range, 30-to-50, via deepfake. Like all actors here tonight, I can 100% ride a horse. I want you to know my favourite film of the year is whichever one you made.” He added, “I’m trying my best to make sure nobody on my watch gets slapped tonight.”

The time-and-space bending sci-fi drama Everything Everywhere All At Once, by Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert (who direct as ‘the Daniels’), had 10 nominations but won only a single award for Editing.

Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis Presley biopic Elvis had nine nominations, including for lead actor Austin Butler. Todd Field’s Tár, starring Cate Blanchett as a high-strung music conductor had five nominatiosn, followed by four each for Charlotte Wells’s Aftersun, Matt Reeves’s The Batman; Sophie Hyde’s Good Luck to You, Leo Grande, Joseph Kosinski’s Top Gun: Maverick and Darren Aronofsky’s The Whale.

A mix-up in the Best Supporting Actress category led to presenter and CODA actor Troy Kotsur announcing She Said nominee Carey Mulligan as the winner instead of Kerry Condon for The Banshees of Inisherin. Deadline reported that “Condon’s name was on the card, but the sign language interpreter providing voiceover for the audience appeared to mistakenly announce Mulligan before rectifying the error.

Here is the full list of nominations and the winners (in bold).
