Another awards night, another big win for Leonardo DiCaprio and The Revenant. The EE British Academy of Film and Television Arts Awards decided to follow everyone else’s lead by giving the Leading Actor Award to DiCaprio (hint, hint Oscars!), as well as awarding Alejandro G. Iñárritu with Best Director and The Revenant with Best Film. Basically, it’s a good movie (opens in new tab) and you should go and see it.
In other news, Star Wars‘ John Boyega bagged the EE Rising Star Award, Brie Larson picked up the gong for Leading Actress, Pixar’s Inside Out won Animated Film, and apparently the best thing about Mad Max: Fury Road was the hair and make-up. See below for the full list of winners…
