La La Land won five gongs in total to keep its hot streak in the movie awards season going before the Oscars later this month, as it also picked up awards for cinematography and original music. “La La Land”, a throwback musical about an aspiring actress and a jazz pianist who are trying to make their way in Hollywood, had been nominated for 11 British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) awards. Her performance opposite Denzel Washington in the August Wilson adaptation previously won similar awards at the Golden Globes and the Screen Actors Guild Awards. Oscar’s sibling from across the pond has spoken, as the British Academy of Film and Television Arts has peppered individual accolades across several of 2016’s awards circuit mainstays. Nominees in that category include “I, Daniel Blake”; the raucous road trip “American Honey”; the courtroom drama “Denial”; the wizarding adventure “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them”; the documentary “Notes on Blindness”; and the Iran-set horror film “Under the Shadow.” Gosling’s rivals in the best actor race were Andrew Garfield for “Hacksaw Ridge”; Casey Affleck for “Manchester by the Sea”; Jake Gyllenhaal for “Nocturnal Animals”; and Viggo Mortensen for “Captain Fantastic.” Best-actress contenders were Stone; Amy Adams for “Arrival”; Emily Blunt for “The Girl on the Train”; Meryl Streep for “Florence Foster Jenkins”; and Natalie Portman for “Jackie.” Image copyright PA Image caption Kenneth Lonergan (L), director of Manchester by the Sea, and Casey Affleck with two of the film's awards

Arrival and Nocturnal Animals were nominated for nine Baftas each, but just won one award between them. Viola Davis says being nominated for a best supporting actress award in Britain shows that playwright August Wilson “told a universal story of the everyman and American history” with “Fences.” Davis was seen as the favorite to win the British Academy Film Award in that category for Denzel Washington’s screen adaptation of Wilson’s stage drama about an African-American family. The 80-year-old director used his speech to lambast Britain’s Conservative government, saying his gritty drama shows that “the most vulnerable and the poorest people are treated by this government with a callous brutality that is disgraceful.” Loach also branded the government’s decision to end a program bringing child refugees to Britain “a disgrace.” The best British picture prize was the first handed out Sunday at Britain’s equivalent of the Oscars. If there’s something you’ve got to say, then say it.” Prince William, who is also president of Britain’s film academy, was to present the academy’s lifetime-achievement honor to veteran comedian Mel Brooks during Sunday’s ceremony.
