BAFTA Honors Atonement, La Vie en rose and Shia Labeouf

BuzzSugar — Mon, 11 Feb 2008 10:30:00 -0800

While we were busy handing out Grammys last night, the folks across the pond held their own star-studded award ceremony: the BAFTA Awards. In keeping with many of the awards ceremonies thus far, Atonement and No Country for Old Men were warmly recognized, though the picture with the most wins was La Vie en rose. Marion Cotillard was reportedly "visibly shocked" to receive the Leading Actress award.

Atonement took top honors with the Best Picture award, though the Coen Bros. nabbed the prize for Best Director. Diablo Cody took home the award for her Juno screenplay, and The Diving Bell and the Butterfly won for Adapted Screenplay. Many of the acting awards were to be expected (Javier Bardem, Daniel Day-Lewis), though Tilda Swinton's win against Cate Blanchett and Samantha Morton was a bit of a surprise.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, however, the Orange Rising Star Award - which is decided by the public - was given to Shia Labeouf. He was up against Sienna Miller, Ellen Page, Tom Riley and Tang Wei. Shia was not present to claim his award.

BAFTA Noms Announced; Atonement Once Again Most Beloved

BuzzSugar — Wed, 16 Jan 2008 10:42:58 -0800

The British Academy of Film and Television Arts has announced the 2008 nominations, which largely mirror the Globe noms - though there's (unsurprisingly) even more love for Atonement on the other side of the pond. The romantic Joe Wright-directed drama leads the nominations with a whopping 14, while No Country for Old Men and There Will Be Blood each nabbed nine. La Vie en Rose is another favorite, as is The Bourne Ultimatum, which is one of the few major departures from other recent award nominations.

The acting categories are filled with familiar names (Clooney, McAvoy, Knightley, Cotillard, Bardem, Blanchett, etc.), though there are a few new additions, like Samantha Morton (Control) and Tommy Lee Jones (No Country for Old Men). And apparently the German film The Lives of Others, which took home the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film last year is now eligible for a BAFTA award, and has a good chance of winning one with five nominations.

Brits and Americans Honoured at BAFTA LA Britannia Awards

PopSugarUK — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 03:59:42 -0800

Several Brits were honoured at the BAFTA/LA Britannia Awards in California last night. Actors who received awards included Colin Firth, who picked up the Humanitarian Award, and Emily Blunt who was named British Artist Of The Year. Robert De Niro received the Stanley Kubrick Award for Excellence In Film, Kirk Douglas was awarded for his Worldwide Contribution To Filmed Entertainment and Danny Boyle received Artistic Excellence In Directing. Danny was joined by his Slumdog Millionaire stars Dev Patel, Freida Pinto and Anil Kapoor.

Other stars at the ceremony included Claire Danes, Minnie Driver, Lucy Davis and Stephen Fry, who hosted the ceremony and said: "(In London) as the evening progresses, a larger and larger percentage of the audience gets really annoyed, by the end of the evening three quarters of the entire room are angry because they got passed over for an award. The beauty of the Britannias is that everyone knows who has won, five winners - and it's short."

Eastender Patsy Palmer looks like a far cry from her on screen persona at this evening's BAFTA TV awards. I think she looks quite glamorous in a one shoulder little black dress with a pair of court heels – do you agree?

2009 BAFTA TV Awards: Louise Redknapp

FabSugarUK — Sun, 26 Apr 2009 12:00:09 -0700

Louise Redknapp gave birth to her second son late last year, but she is looking in great shape today as she hits the TV BAFTAs in a long, red Sonia Rykiel gown. The tiered detailing makes the shape very flattering. She teamed it with gold shoes and clutch, which I think compliment the colour of her dress nicely. What do you think of her ensemble?
