:06:38. > :06:39.well, since last night. So the warmest welcome ladies
:06:40. > :06:41.and gentlemen to the Magnificent Royal Albert Hall
:06:42. > :06:43.for the EE British beasts we have found
:06:44. > :06:48.for our annual celebration of all that is wonderful
:06:49. > :06:58.in the world of filmed So wonderful that we cut it down to
:06:59. > :07:03.a healthy two minutes for you to watch. As my dear grandma used to
:07:04. > :07:12.say. Cop of load of this, bitches. You had a guy with a case
:07:13. > :07:34.full of monsters, huh? APPLAUSE
:07:35. > :09:17.A great year in film. We are delighted that
:09:18. > :09:19.their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of
:09:20. > :09:21.Cambridge are here for In fact, we're especially
:09:22. > :09:24.pleased that the Duchess is here as she'll be such
:09:25. > :09:27.a support to her husband who, after watching
:09:28. > :09:29.a recent episode of Who Do You Think You Are?
:09:30. > :09:31.is still recovering from the devastating news that
:09:32. > :09:33.he's related to Danny Dyer. Now, I look down on row
:09:34. > :09:36.after row of the most in their beautiful,
:09:37. > :09:39.borrowed evening wear, by the force of her sheer
:09:40. > :09:40.magnetism, I'm instantly attracted to Emma Stone -
:09:41. > :09:43.star of one of the nominated films, the
:09:44. > :09:44.entrancing La La Land. Hers was a quite
:09:45. > :09:46.brilliant performance singing, dancing, and most
:09:47. > :09:59.astonishingly of all, pretending Also here is master film-maker Ken
:10:00. > :10:03.Loach. APPLAUSE
:10:04. > :10:05.Now Ken Loach could have been influenced by
:10:06. > :10:08.La La Land to capture the glitz, glamour and fun,
:10:09. > :10:09.fun, fun of the British social welfare benefits
:10:10. > :10:16.But instead he went the other way and produced a passionate
:10:17. > :10:19.masterpiece of realism, wrath and outrage.
:10:20. > :10:21.I see two of its stars here, the magnificent Hayley
:10:22. > :10:35.The arrival of Arrival made us all wonder if we
:10:36. > :10:37.could ever find a rival to rival Arrival's arrival.
:10:38. > :10:41.Here is its star, and the star of course of the stunning
:10:42. > :10:50.In Arrival, Amy plays a linguist employed to decipher
:10:51. > :10:51.unintelligible utterings that make no apparent
:10:52. > :10:57.She will be standing by in the wings all
:10:58. > :11:00.evening to help us out as the winners leap up to
:11:01. > :11:05.Now ladies and gentlemen, we applied to the
:11:06. > :11:08.Royal Borough of Kensington Chelsea for
:11:09. > :11:11.planning permission to seat two huge stars next
:11:12. > :11:13.to each other, and, wouldn't you know it, they
:11:14. > :11:19.triumph in the ear-shatteringly brilliant Florence
:11:20. > :11:26.Cary and Student, Hugh Grant. and unquestionably one
:11:27. > :11:29.of the greatest actresses of all time - what kind of
:11:30. > :11:56.Now Miss Streep, I want to call you Dame Merrell, if you were British
:11:57. > :12:01.you would have been Damed five times over.
:12:02. > :12:04.It is a little tradition here at Bafta to ask an
:12:05. > :12:05.esteemed member of our audience to give me a kiss.
:12:06. > :12:18.Oh, thank you, bless you. You know what... Wow. Never in the field of
:12:19. > :12:27.human conflict has my left cheek been so jealous of my right.
:12:28. > :12:30.Now it's time to howl in appreciation of the
:12:31. > :12:31.masterful Moonlight and its luminescent star,
:12:32. > :12:38.This brutal, yet tender gem of a film left me strangely
:12:39. > :12:45.unsettled and I couldn't quite put my finger on why.
:12:46. > :12:49.I didn't know whether to blame it on the moonlight, blame it on the good
:12:50. > :12:52.Eventually, I settled on the boogie.
:12:53. > :12:54.And show my atheism the door, there must be a
:12:55. > :13:05.God because my radar has picked up the
:13:06. > :13:07.wonderful stars of Manchester-by-the-Sea,
:13:08. > :13:15.Michelle Williams and Casey Affleck.
:13:16. > :13:17.Casey is without doubt one of the most
:13:18. > :13:26.And flay my undercarriage and grill my innards if
:13:27. > :13:28.it isn't the breathtaking star of Girl On A Train,
:13:29. > :13:33.Some incredible and unbelievable scenes,
:13:34. > :13:36.particularly for commuters in southern England
:13:37. > :13:43.And look Andrew Garfield is here.
:13:44. > :13:52.Andrew, welcome. What a year you have had.
:13:53. > :13:56.This astonishing true story of a conscientious
:13:57. > :13:58.objector who saved countless lives in World War Two
:13:59. > :14:00.without once picking up a weapon has received
:14:01. > :14:09.rave reviews, with one notable exception.
:14:10. > :14:14.Rifle Association didn't like it at all.
:14:15. > :14:17.Well, I'm afraid we've now reached the legal limit
:14:18. > :14:19.of sycophantic fawning, which is just as well
:14:20. > :14:29.because it's time to reduce the entire year's filmic
:14:30. > :14:33.Let's see who the Russians have decided have won, and the first
:14:34. > :14:40.award. Outstanding British Film,

:14:43. > :14:47.and dazzling stars of the wonderful Lion, the true
:14:48. > :14:49.story of a young boy who gets lost in India,

:14:52. > :14:54.for his mother - what Please welcome, the Lion
:14:55. > :14:57.King and Lion Queen, Hello, I'm so excited to be

:15:23. > :15:27.we are here to honour this year's Outstanding
:15:28. > :15:28.British Films. I've created this?
:15:29. > :15:34.No, mate... If I was going to create a scene,
:15:35. > :15:38.you'd know about it. I'm sorry, love, but you're
:15:39. > :15:41.going to have to go. Jesus Christ! Who's first
:15:42. > :15:44.in this queue? I am. Do you mind if this young
:15:45. > :15:46.lass signs on first? Now you can go back to your
:15:47. > :15:51.desk and let her sign on and do the job the
:15:52. > :15:54.taxpayer pays you for. What's your name?
:15:55. > :15:55.Destiny. Destiny, I'm Jake.
:15:56. > :15:56.Nice to meet you. This is my younger sister, Star.
:15:57. > :15:59.You want my mom? No, but can you do me a favour?
:16:00. > :16:02.Do one favour. Can you feel this material?
:16:03. > :16:04.Just feel it. What does that feel like to you?
:16:05. > :16:07.I don't know about that. You know what kind
:16:08. > :16:09.of material it is? I'm not a Holocaust historian.
:16:10. > :16:17.I'm a Hitler historian. Then why don't you keep your mouth
:16:18. > :16:19.shut about the Holocaust? The truth is, as usual, Mr Irving,
:16:20. > :16:24.you jump in off the board, spouting whatever rubbish comes
:16:25. > :16:26.into your head in order to avoid This is not because you
:16:27. > :16:33.are a rotten historian. It's because you are
:16:34. > :16:37.a bent one as well. Why should this experience
:16:38. > :16:56.strike one as being beautiful? I, Daniel Blake.
:16:57. > :18:35.CHEERING Well, wow. This is extraordinary. A
:18:36. > :18:41.huge thank you to the academy. And, from all of us, from all who made
:18:42. > :18:47.the film, starting with Paul, Rebecca, who wrote this script and
:18:48. > :18:52.produced, to those who made it, the people in Newcastle, and the
:18:53. > :18:56.distributors, and thank you to the academy for endorsing the truth of
:18:57. > :19:02.what the film says, which hundreds of thousands of people in this
:19:03. > :19:06.country know, and that is that the most vulnerable and the poorest
:19:07. > :19:09.people are treated by this government with a callous brutality
:19:10. > :19:18.that is disgraceful. APPLAUSE
:19:19. > :19:22.And its... It's a brutality that extends to keeping out refugee
:19:23. > :19:28.children that we promised to help, and that's a disgrace.
:19:29. > :19:33.CHEERING But films can do many things. They
:19:34. > :19:37.can entertain, they can terrify, they can take us to worlds of the
:19:38. > :19:44.imagination, they can make us laugh, and they can tell us about the real
:19:45. > :19:48.world we live in, and, in that real world, it's a bit of a difficult
:19:49. > :19:52.speech, sorry! In that real world and it's getting darker, we know.
:19:53. > :20:00.And in the struggle that coming between the rich and the powerful,
:20:01. > :20:04.wealth and privilege, and the big corporations and the politicians who
:20:05. > :20:11.speak for them, on the one hand, and the rest of us on the other,
:20:12. > :20:16.film-makers, and we are all film-makers here, film-makers know
:20:17. > :20:22.which side they are on and, despite the glitz and glamour of occasions
:20:23. > :20:23.like this, we are with the people. Thanks for this.
:20:24. > :20:42.CHEERING The next award is for EE Rising Star
:20:43. > :20:48.and is given in honour of legendary It has the unique distinction of,
:20:49. > :20:53.well, its name, and the fact that it is the only award voted
:20:54. > :20:56.for by the public. Though the way things have been
:20:57. > :20:59.lately, I'm not entirely sure To present it, a beguilingly
:21:00. > :21:05.brilliant and powerful actress, so wonderful in the extraordinary
:21:06. > :21:07.Fences, I am considering having one built around her
:21:08. > :21:14.to keep her all to myself. It's great to be here to present the
:21:15. > :21:30.Rising Star Award. Looking out into the
:21:31. > :21:32.audience, I can see many former nominees
:21:33. > :21:38.of this wonderful accolade - people whose stars
:21:39. > :21:40.most definitely have risen and whose glow
:21:41. > :21:42.we can all now thankfully And that they have all gone
:21:43. > :21:46.on to such wonderful things is testament to these
:21:47. > :21:49.special awards, for recognising, encouraging

:22:16. > :22:18.and a morgue? We're looking for you.
:22:19. > :22:21.Why? One second, I've
:22:22. > :22:27.just got to log off. Hello, hello, my name is Casey Cook.
:22:28. > :22:40.I'm being held in a basement. I've been abducted
:22:41. > :22:43.with two other girls. I'm going to break the rules.
:22:44. > :22:57.I'm going to write the rules. The car is not going on.
:22:58. > :23:15.The car isn't fucking going on! If another wave catches us down here
:23:16. > :23:26.we will die. We have to climb
:23:27. > :23:35.that tree right now. You have a metal arm?
:23:36. > :23:41.That is awesome, dude. We may lose the small battles

:25:24. > :25:31.director or producer or an agent, because we get thanked all the time.
:25:32. > :25:35.I want to thank two acting coaches, because this is a profession that
:25:36. > :25:39.isn't praised enough, because actors don't like to admit that we need
:25:40. > :25:44.help sometimes suddenly Evans and Ben curfew, nick, you helped me
:25:45. > :25:51.become the best video that I could be and you coached me to be Lucas in

:28:47. > :29:35.to work together for once. Thanks to the Academy and the
:29:36. > :29:44.voters. A few quick thanks, I guess I'll start at the beginning with our
:29:45. > :29:50.producers Ian and Mel and Andrew and Harvey Weinstein who championed this
:29:51. > :29:54.film all the way through, including the championing of its unusual
:29:55. > :30:03.structure. Speaking of that structure, to the incredible
:30:04. > :30:08.five-year-old non-professional actor...
:30:09. > :30:12.APPLAUSE A five-year-old non-professional
:30:13. > :30:18.actor who carried this entire film for its first half and is a
:30:19. > :30:24.discovery for the agents. And to Dev Patel, a professional actor who then
:30:25. > :30:38.takes the film and makes it his own for the second half. To all of our
:30:39. > :30:43.other cast and crew, Nicole Kidman, and David and the others, for making
:30:44. > :30:51.this film grow so much and finally and most importantly of all, this is
:30:52. > :30:55.for Gus Davis, our beloved director, who, whatever the merits of the
:30:56. > :31:00.screenplay, it is Gus who took the screenplay and made it into the
:31:01. > :31:04.Butism film about love and sensitivity that it is and to you,
:31:05. > :31:05.Gus, thank you for doing that. Thank you very much.
:31:06. > :31:11.APPLAUSE We must now immediately trigger
:31:12. > :31:14.Article 50 so we can leave the last award and get on with the next,
:31:15. > :31:17.which is for Supporting Actress. And who better to present it

:31:53. > :31:59.so kind. My school was so kind and when it
:32:00. > :32:03.came it drama, theatre, I played almost exclusively female parts. I
:32:04. > :32:10.should say female roles. It sounds better. I played almost exclusively
:32:11. > :32:17.female roles and that's why I've always felt a great solidarity with
:32:18. > :32:22.actresses because basically I was one for quite a long time and it is
:32:23. > :32:26.a great honour tonight for revealing the nominees in the category of Best
:32:27. > :32:35.Supporting Actress. Here they are: It's not easy for me to admit
:32:36. > :32:37.that I've been standing I've been right here
:32:38. > :32:42.with this, right. I gave 18 years of my life to stand
:32:43. > :32:47.in the same spot as you! Don't you think I ever
:32:48. > :32:49.wanted other things? Don't you think I had
:32:50. > :32:51.dreams and hopes? What about my life?
:32:52. > :32:58.What about me? Don't you think I ever
:32:59. > :33:08.wanted other things? It's not...
:33:09. > :33:12.Let me finish. That bitch over there
:33:13. > :33:37.ain't no kin of you. If you can't deal with it any more,
:33:38. > :34:02.I can't tell you any more. I've got to go back inside,
:34:03. > :34:05.do you understand? I don't want to speak
:34:06. > :34:08.to you any more. And one day you'll
:34:09. > :34:29.tell me all about it. You'll tell me everything,
:34:30. > :35:43.who you are, everything. And to all the other wonderful
:35:44. > :35:54.nominees Naomie, Nicole, whom am I forgetting, shit, I'm so sorry, and
:35:55. > :35:59.my shell. August Wilson, you know my father groomed horses at the
:36:00. > :36:04.racetrack and he had a fifth grade education and he was a janitor
:36:05. > :36:10.towards the end of his life when he died at cancer, at a MacDonalds. And
:36:11. > :36:14.the reason why I say that is when he took his last breath one of the most
:36:15. > :36:24.devastating things that went through my mind is - did his life matter?
:36:25. > :36:30.And August answers that question so brilliantly because what he did is
:36:31. > :36:35.he said that our lives mattered as African-Americans. The horse
:36:36. > :36:41.groomer, the sanitation worker. The people who grew up under the heavy
:36:42. > :36:48.brute of Jim Crowe. APPLAUSE
:36:49. > :36:56.The people who did not make it into history books, but they have a story
:36:57. > :37:05.and those stories deserve to be told. Because they lived. And, so,
:37:06. > :37:17.thank you August, thank you Denzel Washington. Thank you for honouring
:37:18. > :37:21.actors and not the sky, because sometimes you know we're sacrificed

:38:41. > :38:54.dinosaurs from many other eras. Please welcome Bryce Dallas
:38:55. > :39:04.Howard and Riz Ahmed. For me, the true gift
:39:05. > :39:06.of the Animated Film is that they have absolutely no
:39:07. > :39:09.boundaries to creativity or vision. Whatever the writer or director can
:39:10. > :39:12.dream up, the hugely talented animators can deliver -
:39:13. > :39:14.and this creates an environment where imagination
:39:15. > :39:21.truly can run wild. And I don't trust cartoons because
:39:22. > :39:32.nothing's real. Oh, here are the nominations:
:39:33. > :39:34.How are you going to find your parents?
:39:35. > :39:39.I'm a bit new to the memory thing so I can't say for sure
:39:40. > :39:41.but something tells me they were mostly blue
:39:42. > :39:42.with maybe yellow. That sounds right.
:39:43. > :39:49.I'm pretty sure I'm going to know them when I see them.
:39:50. > :40:06.So, no matter what type of animal you are, from the biggest
:40:07. > :40:09.elephant to our first fox, I implore you, try, try to make
:40:10. > :40:23.Just tell me of our quest and I'll quickly demonstrate my
:40:24. > :40:30.You've got my attention. I promise I won't even blink.
:40:31. > :40:39.I actually don't think I even can blink. Do I have eyelids?
:40:40. > :41:27.Wow. I'm not going to lie. I did not see this coming. You know this film
:41:28. > :41:31.was a whole hearted labour of love, over five years in the making and
:41:32. > :41:37.over the course we tried to get to a a dissolution of childhood. I came
:41:38. > :41:42.across a quote by a great film-maker who said "Every boy wants either a
:41:43. > :41:47.train set or to make a martial arts movie." I never had a train set so I
:41:48. > :41:52.made a movie. Hopefully one that showcases the power of family,
:41:53. > :41:58.imagination and love and above all else, empathy. I believe Hal David
:41:59. > :42:02.and Burt Bacharach when they said "What the world needs now is love,
:42:03. > :42:05.sweet love." But there is another thing there is just too little of
:42:06. > :42:10.and it is empathy, which is what this film is about. So that's why
:42:11. > :42:19.this award means a lot to me and our entire crew. Thanks to the academy
:42:20. > :42:25.for awarding us and to the studio and to my producer, I love you and
:42:26. > :42:29.to our entire cast and crew. You are the best. This was about family. To
:42:30. > :42:34.our familiar lanes loved ones, I love you. Mum and dad, I love you.
:42:35. > :42:43.My world, my partner in crime, my dream team, I love all of you. And
:42:44. > :42:46.tonight with this exquisite shiny metal cudgle non-hand, I'm pretty
:42:47. > :42:56.fond of you guys, too. So, cheers, thank you.
:42:57. > :42:59.On we trot now to Special Visual Effects and to present it,
:43:00. > :43:01.I have issued an executive order for two outstanding actors who,
:43:02. > :43:04.having appeared in Star Wars: The Force Awakens and The Hobbit,
:43:05. > :43:06.respectively, will both have spent plenty of time working
:43:07. > :43:13.with various peculiar, hairy little creatures.
:43:14. > :43:17.Please welcome the English Rose that is Daisy Ridley and the Welsh
:43:18. > :43:31.For me the true magic of Special Visual Effects
:43:32. > :43:33.is creating something that simply couldn't be conjured
:43:34. > :43:39.Yeah, funny you should say that Daisy,
:43:40. > :43:43.'conjuring' right now as I've forgotten the envelope.
:43:44. > :43:45.Well, luckily enough I can sort that, I've got
:43:46. > :44:11.Not bad. Upstaged, much. OK, let's have a look at the

:45:56. > :46:01.academy and the UK in general for allowing us in the country. We

:46:07. > :46:13.Kipling, a good story we had to work from, and if I can introduce the
:46:14. > :46:22.people most responsible, besides Disney, these three geniuses behind

:46:28. > :46:33.800 artists at MPC film who filmed every blade of grass and tuft of

:09:41. > :09:45.contributed to that. But all of us at Curzon
:09:46. > :09:48.are concerned about the future. But if, after Brexit,
:09:49. > :09:58.the essential EU support we receive stops, or is not replaced,
:09:59. > :10:01.then the risks we take with films
:10:02. > :10:05.that exist outside of the mainstream will become
:10:06. > :10:09.much harder and all But whatever the outcome
:10:10. > :10:13.of Brexit you can rest assured that we will
:10:14. > :10:16.continue to seek out challenging new films
:10:17. > :10:19.with bold, diverse and authentic voices; striving
:10:20. > :10:25.to find news ways of engaging with audiences
:10:26. > :10:27.and screening unforgettable films
:10:28. > :10:28.in great new cinemas and on And finally - and I know she's
:10:29. > :10:34.going to kill me for this - I want to
:10:35. > :10:37.thank my wife Wendy. You have been my rock and it is only

:11:24. > :11:42.and welcome, Thandie Newton. Thank you. It is a privilege to be
:11:43. > :11:50.presenting this award tonight. It has been said that a screenplay is
:11:51. > :11:55.not in itself a work of art, it's an invitation to collaborate on the
:11:56. > :11:58.creation of a work of heart. Tonight's five nominees issued that

:12:01. > :12:10.the fruits of their labour. All right, I remember you,
:12:11. > :12:13.I was a little curt that night. All right, I was an ass-hole, I can
:12:14. > :12:16.admit that. But requesting I ran from a serious
:12:17. > :12:21.musician, it is too far. My Lord, did you just
:12:22. > :12:23.say a serious musician? Because I have an audition next
:12:24. > :12:35.week, I am playing serious You could do that anyway,

:15:03. > :15:07.never thought I'd be standing on stage at the Albert Hall. I just
:15:08. > :15:13.want to thank everyone, really, everyone in the room. Thank you,
:15:14. > :15:20.Bafta, so much. Thank you studio Canal, thank you Amazon. I'm very
:15:21. > :15:23.proud to be hit, representing the nominees for original screenplay and
:15:24. > :15:31.all of the screenwriters we have had who have made wonderful films.
:15:32. > :15:35.Screenwriters are in a wonderful position because screenwriters alone
:15:36. > :15:40.understand the thrill of watching an actor become a character that you
:15:41. > :15:46.only imagined. My cast in Manchester By The Sea is among the finest I've
:15:47. > :15:52.ever worked with. It's among the finest casts I've ever seen in a
:15:53. > :15:57.film. Casey, Lucas Hedges, I can't tell you what an honour it is to
:15:58. > :16:00.have worked with you. I'm a single out Casey for one of the most
:16:01. > :16:08.brilliant performances I've ever seen. I'd like to thank my
:16:09. > :16:15.producers, Kimberly Stuart, Chris more. We tried to make a film about
:16:16. > :16:19.looking grief and sorrow in the face and we found that, when you do that,
:16:20. > :16:26.you find love and duty coming with it. Wherever in the world you find
:16:27. > :16:31.loss and sadness, you find love and strength as well. If I may indulge
:16:32. > :16:35.in a personal anecdote, the morning after the presidential election in
:16:36. > :16:40.the United States, my daughter woke up in tears, she didn't want to go
:16:41. > :16:44.to school. My wife insisted that she go. She said, there are children at
:16:45. > :16:49.school who might be frightened and you could help them. She turned 15
:16:50. > :16:52.two weeks ago. She's been to five protests and demonstrations in that
:16:53. > :17:01.time. I'm very proud of her. APPLAUSE
:17:02. > :17:09.I'm very grateful to my wife, I love her very much. Nelly Lonergan, if
:17:10. > :17:11.you are watching this in New York, are you, too. Thank you all very
:17:12. > :17:17.much. -- I love you, too. To present the next award

:17:24. > :17:27.none, we sent out the invitation. So please welcome,
:17:28. > :17:45.the gifted Penelope Cruz. Let's take a look at
:17:46. > :17:56.the nominees for Leading Actor. To her, they were the most
:17:57. > :18:21.dangerous fairy tales ever invented, designed to elicit
:18:22. > :18:24.blind obedience, and strike fear Clearly there anything worse
:18:25. > :18:32.than death would be the knowledge that her rotting flesh will be

:18:38. > :18:53.out on the stairs. And then the furnace blew,
:18:54. > :18:58.they could not get back in again. And I want to know if they knew it
:18:59. > :19:14.was happening. I hear what you are saying,
:19:15. > :19:35.but I don't think That is what you're saying,
:19:36. > :20:38.but that is not what The room looks very different from
:20:39. > :20:46.here. My heart is beating. It's an exciting moment. These clips that we
:20:47. > :20:54.see of the actors are always such moments of heightened emotion, and
:20:55. > :20:59.that so often celebrated. I think it's because they are the hardest to
:21:00. > :21:09.understand in our lives, and the reason that I act is because, when I
:21:10. > :21:15.was a young kid, my mother would take me to meetings for children of
:21:16. > :21:19.alcoholics and there would be lots of kids there and they'd re-enact
:21:20. > :21:26.the person at their home who they were trying to understand. And it
:21:27. > :21:31.was acting, and acting as sort of been there for me ever since. It's a
:21:32. > :21:41.privilege to get to do it for a living. So, if you were wondering,
:21:42. > :21:47.that's why I act. That said, if I had an ounce of the talent of these
:21:48. > :21:54.composers or animators or the acrobats and we saw earlier, I would
:21:55. > :21:59.probably be doing that. But the reason I'm here right now tonight is
:22:00. > :22:07.because of Kenneth Lonergan and his sublime screenplay. It really
:22:08. > :22:15.dignifies everyday lives and their rules with great compassion. I will
:22:16. > :22:21.never be able to express my gratitude to him. And I accept this
:22:22. > :22:27.as a representative of the entire cast, Michelle and Kyle, because
:22:28. > :22:32.that's really how it works. We are all together. This is an honour I
:22:33. > :22:39.will never forget. And cute the academy. Thank you very much. --
:22:40. > :22:48.thank you to the academy. Thank you so much.
:22:49. > :22:51.Gliding on now with all the grace of a generously moisturised kipper,
:22:52. > :22:55.we come to the award for Director in honour of David Lean.
:22:56. > :22:57.And to enlighten you as to the recipient,
:22:58. > :23:03.a giant of the acting profession, in fact, a big friendly giant.
:23:04. > :23:05.Well, actually, he's a big, friendly, prodigiously talented,
:23:06. > :23:36.Please welcome the utterly untouchable, Sir Mark Rylance.
:23:37. > :23:43.Good evening. All of our work in film, whether you are an actor,
:23:44. > :23:46.designer, producer, whatever you do, all of that is channelled and
:23:47. > :23:52.communicated to the audience through the consciousness of the director.
:23:53. > :23:57.They have the interesting job of holding the audience in their mind
:23:58. > :24:03.and heart. They must ask the question, what does an audience need
:24:04. > :24:08.to know? What do they need to feel? How do they need to know that? How
:24:09. > :24:13.do they need to feel it? Perhaps most interestingly, when do they
:24:14. > :24:18.need to know it and feel it is Tremarco I don't know how you feel
:24:19. > :24:23.these days, but I certainly feel that so many stories in society that
:24:24. > :24:26.I took for granted are being challenged, stories I learned from
:24:27. > :24:32.my grandparents and parents, such as the kindness -- be kind to
:24:33. > :24:37.strangers, love other people more than yourself. Stories I learned
:24:38. > :24:41.from films like It's A Wonderful Life, that people are more important
:24:42. > :24:46.than money, that love is the greatest thing you can experience.
:24:47. > :24:49.In a time when these stories are being challenged, I can think of no
:24:50. > :24:53.time that a film director is more needed in society. These five
:24:54. > :24:55.directors have made wonderful films and have been nominated tonight for
:24:56. > :25:12.a Bafta. Let's look at their work. Sitting there with
:25:13. > :25:35.your name tag on your chest, Anne, in front of a sick man
:25:36. > :25:42.offering jobs I can't take anyway. Wasting my time,
:25:43. > :25:46.your employer's time, my time, all it does is humiliate
:25:47. > :25:51.me, grind me down. How do you give up
:25:52. > :26:25.on becoming an artist? Because I'm too cynical
:26:26. > :26:28.to be an artist. I think that to be really,
:26:29. > :26:32.really good you have to come from someplace inside that
:26:33. > :26:35.I'm not sure I have. # It's another day
:26:36. > :27:41.of sun, sun, sun, sun Congratulations. Thank you. Thank
:27:42. > :27:49.you so much. Thank you to the academy. This is an incredible
:27:50. > :27:52.honour. One of the biggest pleasures to actually being here tonight is to
:27:53. > :28:02.be with and to sit with some of the people I made the movie with, tom
:28:03. > :28:10.cat Mike Ross, Selina, Mary, David, my producers, Fred, Jordan, Mark.
:28:11. > :28:13.It's just an honour to make a movie with you and to get to celebrate
:28:14. > :28:19.this with you. I also want to give a special shout out to my friend,
:28:20. > :28:28.former roommate, collaborator of, I think, 12 plus years, Justin, for
:28:29. > :28:32.inspiring me and inspiring all of us with the most beautiful music I
:28:33. > :28:44.could imagine. I want to thank Lions gate UK for all of your work and
:28:45. > :28:46.finally I want to thank Olivia, my love, for inspiring me everyday.
:28:47. > :28:52.Thank you, so, so much. The next award is made
:28:53. > :28:54.up of two parts. Leading and Actress,
:28:55. > :28:56.and in temporary charge of it, a sublime actor who recently
:28:57. > :28:58.smuggled a suitcase of fantastic beasts in to America,
:28:59. > :29:00.and in so doing, inadvertently as I'm sure many of tonight's
:29:01. > :29:06.nominees will have done I give you, the stupendous,
:29:07. > :29:26.Eddie Redmayne. For me, it's impossible to separate
:29:27. > :29:39.the wonderful performances made by each of the truly exceptional
:29:40. > :29:45.talents nominated in the Leading I'm utterly thrilled I don't have to
:29:46. > :29:52.you make the choice. Let us take a look.
:29:53. > :29:54.Death has been my constant companion for almost 50 years.
:29:55. > :29:57.I've been living day-to-day with my body, never
:29:58. > :30:09.knowing whether my mind will desert me.
:30:10. > :30:11.But I have fought, and I have fought and I have fought.
:30:12. > :30:21.Believe it or not, I know something that is going to
:30:22. > :30:27.I cannot explain how I know, I just do.
:30:28. > :30:29.And when I told your daddy he got really mad.
:30:30. > :30:44.The same thing happens every time, I get
:30:45. > :30:46.interrupted because someone wants to get a sandwich.
:30:47. > :30:49.Or I am crying and they start laughing.
:30:50. > :30:55.Or there are people sitting in the waiting room,
:30:56. > :31:03.like me, but prettier and better because maybe I'm not good enough.
:31:04. > :31:05.You think you will control everything, that you have the world
:31:06. > :31:10.Even ridiculous, and I let myself believe it.
:31:11. > :31:12.This parade, who is it really for, Jack?
:31:13. > :31:21.One more campaign stop along the way to the grave.
:31:22. > :31:23.When I saw that woman kissing someone else...
:31:24. > :32:18.Um, oh, well. Thank you so much for this. This is just an unbelievable
:32:19. > :32:23.honour and thank you to Bafta. At the risk of sounding a little
:32:24. > :32:26.redundant between us and Damien, one of the greatest parts about tonight
:32:27. > :32:31.is sitting with all of these incredible people that made this
:32:32. > :32:38.film. We became such a family. So thank you to them on, to Tom, David,
:32:39. > :32:44.sap sandy, Mary, and Justin and Mandy Moore and Gillian and Mike and
:32:45. > :32:48.the list goes on and on, our producers, Fred, Jordan, mark and
:32:49. > :32:50.Ryan who el vats everything he touches and Damien for this
:32:51. > :32:55.incredible opportunity. Thank you so much. This was one of the greatest
:32:56. > :33:02.working experiences of my life and such a joy. And I don't know if you
:33:03. > :33:09.realise this but right now this and country and the US and the world
:33:10. > :33:14.seems to be going through a bit of a time, just a bit and in a time
:33:15. > :33:20.that's so divisive, I think it's really special that we were all able
:33:21. > :33:25.to come together tonight, thanks to Bafta, to celebrate the positive,
:33:26. > :33:31.the positive - I'm losing my words, I'm sorry, this happens. The
:33:32. > :33:36.positive gift of creativity and how it can transcend borders and how it
:33:37. > :33:40.can help people to feel a little less alone. I'm very grateful to be

:39:19. > :39:23.a lot of time with each other over the last couple of weeks, months,
:39:24. > :39:27.and it has been a pleasure getting to know many of you. There is love
:39:28. > :39:32.in the community and I think it is our responsibility as creators to

:39:48. > :39:52.bolder and in technicolour. I think film, when it is at its best and
:39:53. > :39:55.most inspiring, reveals the fundamental human truth, that there
:39:56. > :39:59.is more tying us together than tearing us apart. Lastly, ladies and
:40:00. > :40:03.gentlemen, what we tried to do and what the all the films that you have
:40:04. > :40:10.honoured to try to do, is demonstrate the great power of art,

:41:48. > :42:08.about his remarkable career, Thank you, your Royal Highness.
:42:09. > :42:12.Ladies and gentlemen, it is a great honour to be here to talk about a
:42:13. > :42:16.comedy genius. Oh, that's very kind of you, Simon,
:42:17. > :42:22.but tonight is about Mel Brooks. Legend, icon, innovator,
:42:23. > :42:33.and here's something you may not have heard -
:42:34. > :42:42.Jewish. Very, very Jewish. You think you
:42:43. > :42:49.know someone. Mel has won every award known
:42:50. > :42:52.to man, with the possible exception of the Latin Grammy,
:42:53. > :42:55.and I'm sure if he put his mind to it he could salsa his
:42:56. > :42:57.way to that one too. A comic genius who singlehandedly
:42:58. > :43:00.raised flatulence to an art form. He's brilliantly spoofed
:43:01. > :43:02.show business, westerns, horror films, Hitchcock films,
:43:03. > :43:03.silent films, and even This is the man who gave us singing
:43:04. > :43:13.and dancing Nazis - hey, He gave us Hitler on ice,
:43:14. > :43:17.Hitler on dry land, He's definitely got a thing
:43:18. > :43:27.about Hitler. But that's the thing
:43:28. > :43:31.with Hitler, they never tell Back to Mel - this man has
:43:32. > :43:40.influenced generations of comedians and writers with his work
:43:41. > :43:43.on the television classic Your Show Of Shows and his 2000 Year
:43:44. > :43:46.Old Man recordings with Carl Reiner. No, that was Sir Alexander
:43:47. > :43:57.Fleming from Scotland. But could Sir Alexander
:43:58. > :43:59.Fleming do a spit take? I'm pretty sure, if we gave Mel
:44:00. > :44:06.a lab coat, test tubes and the right chemicals,
:44:07. > :44:08.he could come up with something just Jewish pencilin. Chicken soup.
:44:09. > :44:16.Absolutely. Always worked for me. Because there is also
:44:17. > :44:19.a serious side to Mel Brooks. He has been the producer
:44:20. > :44:21.of many wonderful films, such as The Elephant Man,
:44:22. > :44:24.Frances and The Fly, to name a few. He also went on to conquer Broadway
:44:25. > :44:27.in 2001 with his musical version of The Producers that won the most
:44:28. > :44:30.Tony Awards in theatrical history, a record even
:44:31. > :44:31.Hamilton couldn't beat. Cheer up, folks. It's like you have
:44:32. > :44:44.been at an awards show all night. The Producers was a life-changing
:44:45. > :44:47.experience and one of the major high Thank you, Mel, for giving me
:44:48. > :44:51.the opportunity to play the one and only Max Bialystock
:44:52. > :45:06.and for being such a great For me, it was a print of Young
:45:07. > :45:12.Frankenstein that meet me a Mel Brooks fan at age nine. Years later,
:45:13. > :45:15.that was the film that resonated as the key inspiration, a shining
:45:16. > :45:21.example of how comedy can be in love with what it is signing up.
:45:22. > :45:24.And, now that Mel has finally reached the ripe old age of 2000,
:45:25. > :45:27.and he doesn't look a day over 1500, folks, it's fitting that
:45:28. > :45:29.Bafta are honouring him with their Fellowship.
:45:30. > :45:33.Let's remind ourselves of his remarkable and extraordinary career.
:45:34. > :45:36.For what you are about to see next, we must enter quietly,
:45:37. > :45:53.I have one question, Doctor Frankenstein.
:45:54. > :46:00.It's very fascinating, I'm afraid I'm going to have to hurt you.
:46:01. > :46:26.Springtime for Hitler, a gay romp with Adolf and Eva.
:46:27. > :46:53.You will never know how much this project excites me.
:46:54. > :47:07.Master, how can you feel that anyone would betray you?
:47:08. > :47:09.You who we will follow until our death.
:47:10. > :47:25.I see your Schwartz is as big as mine.
:47:26. > :47:30.Igor, would you give me help with the bags?
:47:31. > :47:34.You take the blonde, I'll take the one with a turban.
:47:35. > :47:42.And now, let's end this meeting on a high note.
:47:43. > :48:36.Please welcome to the stage, Mel Brooks.
:48:37. > :49:01.I think it's... The Bafta... I think Bafta has made on the Ringley good
:49:02. > :49:07.choices tonight, especially me. -- on the Ringley good choices. But, I
:49:08. > :49:16.want to tell you, to choose an American, why didn't I say it? I
:49:17. > :49:24.want to thank Harvey Weinstein for having nothing to do with this award
:49:25. > :49:30.tonight. Thanks for nothing. I want to apologise to the Duke and Duchess
:49:31. > :49:45.and Prince Philip for the American Revolution. We were young.
:49:46. > :49:54.Seriously, let me confide a little truth that occurred less than 40
:49:55. > :50:05.hours ago. I went to the airport. They asked for my passport. I forgot
:50:06. > :50:11.it. Really. And, er, it wasn't because of old age. I personally can
:50:12. > :50:19.tell you, I've seen Stephen Fry makes three appearances before the
:50:20. > :50:25.show began. I know... And, if I have any rewards for tonight, I would
:50:26. > :50:34.love to meet the girl in the blue dress that came down from the
:50:35. > :50:48.ceiling. I'm still alive. But, seriously, folks,... Er, having an
:50:49. > :50:58.American here is very moving, and getting this a special honour,
:50:59. > :51:05.having been given to people like Hitchcock and Olivier and
:51:06. > :51:15.Pressburger and Powell, you know, champions and idols of my life, is a
:51:16. > :51:23.singular and August honour, and I am very grateful. This is one of the
:51:24. > :51:30.awards that you will not see an eBay, I promise you. EBay has all
:51:31. > :51:36.the others, but not this one. Not this one. Anyway, I thank you from
:51:37. > :51:43.the bottom of my heart. It's... It's been wonderful to be here. Thank
:51:44. > :51:52.you. Oh, by the way, by the way, just a thought, the reason I forgot
:51:53. > :51:56.my passport is because I don't think of England, seriously, I don't think
:51:57. > :52:01.of this place as a foreign country. I think of it is like a vast
:52:02. > :52:06.Brooklyn that just speaks better. That's all. Anyway, less you, thank
:52:07. > :52:27.you, that's all. -- bless you. Ladies and gentlemen, we were here
:52:28. > :52:37.the night that Mel Brooks came to London. No one can ever take that
:52:38. > :52:42.away from us. In closing, I was trying to think, when looking at
:52:43. > :52:47.many films that seem to rise to the top this year, and how pleasing
:52:48. > :52:50.there is such a spread of awards for them, do they have anything in
:52:51. > :52:54.common, some connection between them, and I could only see how
:52:55. > :53:00.different they were. Then I remembered a story David Niven used
:53:01. > :53:04.to tell about a dinner he was at the playwright and screenwriter Charles
:53:05. > :53:08.MacArthur and Charlie Chaplin. MacArthur said Charlie Chaplin, I've
:53:09. > :53:13.got a scene and I want a grand and pompous lady to slip on a banana
:53:14. > :53:19.skin. I get a laugh from such a low-key setup? Do I show the banana
:53:20. > :53:25.skin and then the lady, do I show them together? How do I do it? Can I
:53:26. > :53:28.get a laugh? Charlie Chaplin said, is simple. You showed the lady
:53:29. > :53:34.walking down the street is that you the banana skin. You see the lady
:53:35. > :53:37.and banana skin in the same shot. Then the lady stepped over the
:53:38. > :53:41.banana skin and disappears down a manhole. And I think that's the
:53:42. > :53:50.point about the films that when hold us. They defy expectation and
:53:51. > :53:57.formula. They step over the banana skin and down the manhole. I can
:53:58. > :54:02.only quote the line from Mel Brooks, drive me off this picture. That's
:54:03. > :54:05.it, from EE British Academy Film Awards, thank you and good night.
:54:06. > :54:12.Thank you so much. J Roy Helland and Florence Foster
:54:13. > :54:28.Jenkins! Thank you, Meryl. You keep coming up
:54:29. > :54:43.with interesting characters that are so much fun to put together. La La
:54:44. > :54:47.Land. Thank you to everybody who made the movie and thanks to the
:54:48. > :54:51.academy. This is a very cool druggie, by the way. It's beautiful.
:54:52. > :55:10.-- cool trophy. Jackie. Thank you for all the talented
:55:11. > :55:16.people who supported and accompanied me in this adventure, and thank you
:55:17. > :55:24.of course to Natalie Portman who gave life and grace to these
:55:25. > :55:35.costumes. Thank you. The Bafta is awarded to Arrival.
:55:36. > :55:43.The story of the sound of Arrival is a bit, like the film, it ended up
:55:44. > :55:58.being an international collaboration. A love story.
:55:59. > :56:06.Today is an amazing day. I hope it's like changing. -- life changing.
:56:07. > :56:28.Home. Being British, our heart is love.
:56:29. > :56:31.Our soul is compassion. And I think that we need that to be reflected
:56:32. > :56:47.within our government, so thank you for this. I really appreciate it.
:56:48. > :56:55.Hacksaw Ridge. Unfortunately John can't be here so we will ensure he
:56:56. > :57:05.receives this award. Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them.
:57:06. > :57:11.I'm proud to be collecting this award on behalf of Stuart Greg, who
:57:12. > :57:17.unfortunately can't be here. This incredible and devotion and hard
:57:18. > :57:29.work of so many talented people, the seemingly impossible was achieved.
:57:30. > :57:34.The Bafta goes to 13. That isn't the problem in and of itself. It's a
:57:35. > :57:42.reflection of a much larger, brutal system of racial and social control
:57:43. > :57:45.known as mass incarceration. My name is Lisa and I had the honour of
:57:46. > :57:53.working with the director to produce 13th. She is so heartbroken not be
:57:54. > :58:02.here, but please know how important this specific award is to her and to
:58:03. > :58:12.all of us. And the Bafta goes to... Son of salt.
:58:13. > :58:21.I'd like to thank the lead actor of the film, and it was a great
:58:22. > :58:30.opportunity to meet the British public. Thank you very much. And
:58:31. > :58:43.thanks to the academy. Linus Sandgren for La La Land.
:58:44. > :59:41.This is overwhelming and extremely generous of you.
:59:42. > :59:42.CROWD CLAMOURS Karen!
:59:43. > :59:45.Hey, Julie. JULIE LAUGHS
