The New York Times • • general
Key Points:
- The BAFTA Film Awards, Britain's major movie industry ceremony, are held Sunday night in London and are seen as a key indicator for the Oscars due to overlapping voting members.
- While there is significant overlap, the BAFTAs and Oscars sometimes differ in winners, as seen last year when "Conclave" won best film at the BAFTAs but "Anora" won the Oscar.
- The ceremony takes place at the Royal Festival Hall in London, starting at 4:45 p.m. local time (11:45 a.m. Eastern), with delayed broadcasts on the BBC in the UK at 7 p.m. and on E! in the US at 8 p.m. Eastern and Pacific.
