A German remake of anti-war classic “All Quiet on the Western Front” leads the nominations at this weekend’s British Academy Film Awards, which movie pundits will be following closely as an indicator for next month’s Oscars. | Reuters
“The Banshees…,” about two feuding friends on a remote island off the coast of Ireland, and “Everything Everywhere…” each received 10 nominations. Their lead stars—Colin Farrell and Michelle Yeoh, respectively—are nominated in the main acting categories, where they both face stiff competition.
Yeoh, who has already won awards for her portrayal of a laundromat owner unexpectedly introduced to an alternate multiverse in “Everything Everywhere,,,,” and Cate Blanchett, who plays a gay conductor of a Berlin orchestra whose career comes tumbling down due to an abuse scandal in “Tár,” are the two favorites for the leading actress prize.
“Woman King” director Gina Prince-Bythewood is the only woman in the running for the director award, but the outstanding debut by a British writer, director or producer category features all female nominees.
