BAFTAS 2018: The Nominees
The Golden Globes recently announced the full list of winners for 2018 (from films that were released in 2017). This awards ceremony, coupled with what happens at the various Hollywood guild awards later on, usually suggests what will go down at the Oscars later this year. But we’ve definitely seen many a time where there’s a discrepancy between the winners at the Globes and the Oscars. The BAFTAS usually fill an interest gap in the prediction game, and here are this year’s nominees.
