BAFTA's

[Hepzibar]

Get in with it! Been watching 20 minutes and nothing's happened.

What are you whoing at Barton !?

And the BAFTA is awarded to :

2 hours of dogs barking, birds tweeting and long shots of hallways and crowds

Who is better than Idris?

Off to bed. Night all!

Chiwetel, I presume!

I liked the dog bits...

Don't forget the extended willy sequence!

Awe I like Olivia. I still have all my CDs of Mitchell & Webb sketches and I loved her collaboration with those guys. She's gone from strength to strength. I'm looking forward to seeing her as the Queen

Ahh Chiwetel vs Idris. I see.

For acting - Chiwetel
For Sex - Idris

Obvs

I've seen a lot of the films but in my view, for sheer entertainment value, Bohemian Rhapsody knocked them all for six. I'd rather listen to the opinion of the public than these luvvies any day.

2Rebecca - glad I'm not the only one. I find all that 'oh gosh, isn't it big....' etc really irritating. Even just seeing the clips of The Favourite, I can only see her as Olivia Coleman, she seems the same in everything she does.

That looks weird. Can't decide if I like it or not

I luuuurve Cate Blanchett.

'Night Coper.

It is entertaining , yes, but I felt uncomfortable about some of the narrative about homosexuality.... and , God, some of the acting was DIRE. I loved the last sequence but that was because it was liek reliving Live Aid!

Oh I like that dress Cate is wearing

Honestly The Favourite is fantastic

Nicholas Hoult (the kid from About A Boy) has a supporting part and is a revelation and Olivia's performance is definitely nuanced and not Samey samey

Martin Scorsese is a bloody genius filmmaker

@theliverpoolone I agree - her voice always is the same. I thought she was good in the Favourite but it was ridiculous that the other characters sounded posher than the Queen. She sounded just like she did in Broadchurch.

*For acting - Chiwetel
For Sex - Idris

Obvs*

Couldn't have put it more succinctly

@Piggywaspushed

But I felt the Live Aid focus really rushed the third act of the film and squashed things together such as him finding a stable relationship and his ultimate passing.

I'd love to know what really went on behind the scenes though sounds dreadful chaos

Agree theliverpoolone. I first saw her playing a klutzy office worker in The Green Wing and she keeps playing that sort of character even in real life if that speech is her being natural. Who are the actors who can actually act and change their character?

Right I'm off to bed too, night night

That was deliberate , I think barton and was what made the film shallow indeed but it was a great set piece. The two different directors really showed. The style suddenly changed halfway through the film.

Came on here and cant believe that none of you have discussed Edith Bowman's 'dress'. You're a disappointing bunch of vipers tonight! Are we really not going to talk about that train wreck??!

I saw it in passing earlier. Extraordinary.

I had heard of Free Solo. I do want to watch that, and Colette.

I did comment on another thread RE Bowmans dress that I can't believe anyone looked at that and thought

"Perfect For The BAFTAs"

So I have fulfilled my viper status and don't need to hand my credentials back!
