The British Academy Of Film Television Awards have announced their annual list of nominees and they certainly have done a lot of shaking up in this awards race. First I'll get into the biggest surprises. One is the love for the British drama I, Daniel Blake which scored Best Film, Best Director (Ken Loach), and Supporting Actress (Hayley Squires). Also, Nocturnal Animals got a surprising amount of love while Fences and Hidden Figures got only one nomination a piece; Emily Blunt managed a Best Actress nomination over Annette Bening, Isabelle Huppert, and Ruth Negga; Loving and Silence aren't anywhere to be found.
Some other surprising snubs include Barry Jenkins for Best Director for Moonlight and Denzel Washington for Best Actor for Fences. Thankfully, Barry Jenkins still got nominated for Original Screenplay and also Moonlight got in for Best Film. As for the Denzel snub, I figured he would be the one to derail frontrunner Casey Affleck. But in 2010 when the BAFTAs nominated The Fighter, they ommitted Melissa Leo who went on to win the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress. So if Denzel can take SAG, there is a chance or he can surprise the way he won over Russell Crowe in 2001 for Training Day. His spot ended up going to Jake Gyllenhaal for Nocturnal Animals and if his spot is going go anybody, I'm more than happy to see it go to Jake Gyllenhaal.
