The time’s nearly here, ladies and gentlemen. So straighten those ties and polish your cufflinks as we get ready to celebrate the biggest night in British film, the BAFTAs. We at The Hollywood News have been tracking awards season with an eager eye as you can see from our coverage here. But our pencils are now firmly down as we bring you our list of who we believe will walk away with a shiny bronze face tonight.
We’re not going to go into detail over these choices – even if we will have to justify our faith in PHILOMENA over GRAVITY come the morning. But what we will do is meet you on the other side with what the winners mean in regards to the Oscars. Trust us – we’re feeling pretty confident.
