The 72nd annual Britsh Academy Film Awards will take place on February 10th. All of us award show lovers will have a busy Sunday, making sure to keep on top of both the BAFTAs and the Grammys, but I have full confidence in our abilities!
PSA: Don’t make the same mistake I made last year and forget to factor in the time difference for the BAFTAs!
A fun fact: The BAFTAs and the Academy Awards have a similar voting party. A lot of the people voting on the BAFTAs will go on to vote on the Oscars next week. This means that the winners here will be very indicative on what a portion of Oscar voters are thinking.
Without further ado, here are the predictions:
