BAFTA 2011 – Nominations & Predictions
Here are the nominations for this years BAFTA awards with my views and predictions. I really have a feeling that The King’s Speech will sweep the awards! My favorite two films within the nominations have to be “Inception” and “Black Swan” both incredible thought-provoking films. So I shall be rooting for them. Excellent to see “Girl with the Dragon Tattoo” getting some recognition!
BEST FILM |
| BLACK SWAN – Mike Medavoy, Brian Oliver, Scott Franklin |
| INCEPTION – Emma Thomas, Christopher Nolan |
| THE KING’S SPEECH – Iain Canning, Emile Sherman, Gareth Unwin |
| THE SOCIAL NETWORK – Scott Rudin, Dana Brunetti, Michael De Luca, Céan Chaffin |
| TRUE GRIT – Scott Rudin, Ethan Coen, Joel Coen |
If “The King’s Speech” does not take this award, which I think it will do. I would love to see Inception get some recognition in awards terms as it really has been one of the most talked about films in recent times.
