The nominations for the 2024 EE BAFTA Film Awards were announced today, offering a chance to see which of the year’s most garlanded films resonated with the British industry. Unsurprisingly, the putative Oscar frontrunner Oppenheimer [+lire aussi :

Killers of the Flower Moon, unfairly associated with its three-and-a-half-hour running time in viewers’ minds, surprisingly missed out on several major categories, such as Best Film, Best Director and Best Actor for Leonardo DiCaprio; indeed, it has a particular urgency in the USA, with its relevance to the continual disenfranchisement of the Native population. Barbie, meanwhile, wasn’t afforded a rhapsody in pink; voters only saw it worthy of five nominations, revealing some hesitancy towards its IP-based origins.

Anatomy of a Fall [+lire aussi :

fiche film]’s seven-nomination haul is also of major note and another strong omen for potential Oscar success. The local and international resonance of this film has been a triumph for the French industry and its director Justine Triet; no less than Cineuropa’s own number-one film of 2023 (see the news), the lucidity of its writing and the originality of its spin on the classic courtroom drama make it an impeccably classy contender.

With its large social-media footprint, and the buzz created through its early streaming release over the holiday period, Emerald Fennell's Saltburn [+lire aussi :
