Extra Time BBC News: The Baftas

Good evening. Wonderful to be here tonight, at the British Academy film

awards, presenting two awards. First up, make-up and hair. All the

nominees in this category are masters of their craft. So let's

take a look at them. Doctor strange, Jerry Lee would head. Florence

Foster Jenkins. And the BAFTA BAFTA goes to J. Roy

Helland, Daniel Phillips, Florence Foster Jenkins. Thank you so much,

Academy, I am thrilled to work in this job. Thank you Stephen, Tracy,

Michael, we had great fun. I am so thrilled with this. Thank you.

APPLAUSE Thank you to the Academy, and thank

you, Meryl. You keep coming up with interesting characters that are just

so much fun to put together. And the BAFTA is awarded to Justin

Hurwitz, La La Land. Thank you to the Academy. Or Russia, either way

it is an honour. It is technically a musical, so I want to share this

without a credible lyricist, who wrote all of the words. To the

songs, and I wish they could be here, mostly so that they could be

the ones talking, and I wouldn't have to think of as much stuff to

say. But this was... I remember talking a couple of years ago to

somebody who came to the Baftas as part of a movie that had multiple

nominations and they said one of the coolest things was getting to know

multiple people who worked on the movie who you may not have known,

and that is not the experience I am having because this was such an

unusually collaborative movie where from the very beginning we were

working under one roof and I got to see these other artists work up

close. I got to see the costumes being designed, and watching them

work, and I was constantly inspired by the work of these other artists,

which is a cool experience for a composer in general, but to sit

under the direction of Damien, who is so masterful at what he does, was

really something will never forget. Tonight's nominees for costume

design brought their films to life with startling colour deep

brilliance, and exquisite attention to detail. Let's take a look at

them. And the BAFTA is awarded to Madeline

Fontaine, for Jackie. APPLAUSE

. Thank you. I am so very move to be

here with the wall. This evening. And so much in awe to be recognised

by my fortunate peers, especially because for me, English costume

designers are a gauge of quality. This movie belongs to history, and

is so much embedded in our collective memory. I hope to be up

to the challenge, and here I am, reassured and fulfilled. Thank you

to all the talented people who supported and accompanied me in this

adventure, and thank you, of course, to Natalie Portman, who gave life

and grace to these costumes. Thank you.

And the BAFTA is awarded to Arrival. Congratulations. Wow, this is such

an honour, such an honour. Thank you so much, everyone. The story of the

sound of Arrival is a little bit like the film. It ended up being an

international collaboration, headed by a Montreal team, wonderful

Montreal team. First, thank you to the producers, Dan Lavine, Aaron

Rider, just to name a few. And that followed the team to Montreal, and

took us to follow him home, and also the film is to talk about the

beautiful score, by Johann Johannsson, and the lovely sound of

Amy Adams. It is lovely to be here in this building, the Royal Albert

Hall, for the 70th British Academy film awards. Yes, and in honour of

the categories we are keeping our entries short and sweet. So let's

take a look at the nominations for British short animation.

Hello, my name is Nush. This is really surreal experience, all kinds

of thoughts in my head right now. I haven't prepared speech, and I

just... I just want to say that, as filmmakers, I realise that I have

become quite shameless in the amount of favours I ask from people, and it

is crazy, we borrowed some lights for three months, we kept them for

ten months. And you know, that is what brought us here. So many people

have just gone beyond, to help us get here. Even this dress that I am

wearing tonight, someone so do it. OK, now let's take a look at the

nominations for British Short film. Wow. This is incredible. This film

was made by many people. Actress and executive producer, Schpat Deda, all

refugees from the genocide in Kosovo. My grandmother was a refugee

from the Holocaust, and I think many people here came from migrant

families, and have somehow been related to the crisis of the

refugees. From my perspective, and I think from all of our perspectives,

being British, our heart is love. Our sole is compassion. And I think

that we need that to be reflected within our government, and we need

that to be reflected in our government's policy, in relation to

how they deal with other countries across the Atlantic, their

administrations, and not put up with any racism, homophobia, Islam

phobia, or anything like that. So thank you for this. I really

appreciated. Thank you. The Bafta goes to... John Gilbert.

Unfortunately, John is not able to be here so we will make sure that he

receives this award. And the Bafta goes to fantastic

beasts. Apologies as I reach for my piece of

paper. I am proud to collect this award on behalf of Stuart Craig as

he unfortunately cannot be here as he is a little under the weather. We

would like to thank after. Congratulation to both Anna and her

lovely team. It is through devotion and hard work and so many talented

people, the seemingly impossible was achieved in 12 acres of previously

empty suit your lot grew into 1920s New York. The nominees for the Bafta

documentary are all powerful films. There's the -- mesmerise in in

different and equal measure. Let's take a look at the films. The Bafta

goes to... 13. Wow, this is absolutely incredible.

My name is Lisa and I had the incredible honour of working with

the incredible visionary. She's so heartbroken not to be here, the only

thing that would keep her from being here is that she's shooting her next

film in New Zealand. Now the award for film not in the English

language. It showcases some of the most inspiring work around the

world. Tragedy, struggle and oppression and they also stress

family and unity. Let's take a look at the nominees.

Who did you say you worked for? This is my... Secretary.

It is a great honour to be here with you tonight. I would like to thank

the lead actor of the film... My producers, who is standing here, the

incredible cast and crew that I had which is a great luck and I want to

thank the distributors in the UK, they did a great job and it was a

great opportunity to meet the British public. And thanks to the

academy. Thank you. And the award goes to Linus Sandgren

for La La Land. Thank you to the Academy. This is overwhelming and

extremely generous of you. I would like to thank the entire La La Land

crew. I think this was a film made with an exceptional amount of, you

know, craftsmanship and first of all I want to thank Damian, you are a

great romantic heart and passion for film and filmmaking and for the

friendship. I want to thank Emma and Brian for your brilliant

performances. I am sure, like me,

many of you will be glad to see It was cold for many,

there was a lot of cloud around. And we closed out the second half

of the weekens ona similar story -
