Bafta Awards

Watch for this year's nominees to be announced on January 21, 2010 — kicking off a round of voting by BAFTA members to see who wins the coveted British award for best movie, acting and direction.

A month later, the BBC will air the official awards show on Sunday, February 21, 2009 from the Royal Opera House in London.

Like the Oscars, the Baftas are the country's top honor given to both British and international movie hits, and in recent years has closely mimicked Hollywood (and vice versa), with some surprises. This year, however, most predictions point to Best Film and a slew of acting awards going to BBC Films' An Education (opening in autumn 2009) kicking off a huge British sweep at most 2010 major awards ceremonies. Stay tuned ...
