BAFTA Awards 2022: See the full list of winners
The BAFTA Awards were presented on March 13 by the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA).
The ceremony at London’s Royal Albert Hall returned to an in-person event after going virtual in 2021 due to the pandemic.
Dune — which went into the ceremony with 11 nominations — dominated the craft categories, winning five awards in total, including for cinematography, special visual effects, sound, original score, and production design. The Power of the Dog, which had eight nominations, won best film and best director.
Also claiming two wins was CODA — for best-supporting actor (Troy Kotsur) and best original screenplay — and West Side Story, for supporting actress (Ariana DeBose) and casting.
The other performance categories went to Will Smith for leading actor in King Richard and, in perhaps the evening’s most unexpected result, Joanna Scanlan for After Love.
