Your official sign to practise your bathroom-mirror acceptance speech
One of the up sides to the start of the year, apart from the complete and utter acceptability of doing nothing / staying indoors is the slew of great films and their subsequent various award nominations.
First up was the Golden Globes, next the Oscars were announced, with Sinners earning a record breaking 16 nominations, now the Bafta nominations have been released – and let’s just say there aren’t many surprises.
One Battle After Another is leading the charge with 14 nods, with Sinners, Hamnet, and Marty Supreme not far behind.
