Raindance 2013 line-up announced

But did they make a mistake in putting Julian Assange on their jury?

Review: Ain't Them Bodies Saints

Rooney Mara is fantastic in this delicate, sun-soaked Western

Review: About Time

Ever since I was a boy, I always wondered about voice-overs...

Film review: Wadjda

Every now and then, a film comes along that changes the world. Sometimes, you don't even realise it's doing it.

World War H – or hate’s not all that

What do Shyamalan, World War Z and Man of Steel have in common? Hype - and hate.

The biggest highlights of the 2012 BAFTAs:

It was also great to see Tyrannosaur/Paddy Considine pick up a much-deserved BAFTA for Outstanding British Debut, as well as John Hurt accepting his BAFTA for Outstanding Contribution to British Cinema - making up for his unfairly overlooked supporting role in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.


Otherwise, the evening was a predictable mix of Meryl Streep winning awards, Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy not winning enough awards and Christopher Plummer pipping Kenneth Branagh to the Supporting Actor post. Oh, and Senna took home both Best Documentary and Editing.

 

Read on for the full list of winners - or head this way for a rant about the BAFTA nominations and the Academy's inability to celebrate our own country's cinema. (But let's be honest: you all stopped reading at Christina Hendricks.)
