:00:51. > :01:01.the stars will be here. We are poised and ready for action, for
:01:01. > :01:23.
:01:23. > :01:29.the biggest, most glamorous night I am joined by Eddie Redmayne. How
:01:29. > :01:33.are you? I'm good. The you are taking this in your stride. It's
:01:33. > :01:37.always a bit overwhelming but it should be an amazing night. These
:01:37. > :01:42.guys have been out for a while, they look freezing cold! It's been
:01:42. > :01:45.a great year for you. You are celebrating the success of it My
:01:45. > :01:49.Week With Marilyn and you are nominated for rising star yourself.
:01:49. > :01:53.You do this work in a vacuum and over an extended period of time,
:01:54. > :01:58.you never think anyone sees it. But suddenly at events like this you
:01:58. > :02:02.meet up with people you haven't seen for a while and as well as
:02:02. > :02:06.being a celebration of film, it feels like a nice thing to see
:02:06. > :02:11.those guys and hang out with them. It feels like the start of
:02:11. > :02:16.something brilliant. That is very kind. Loving the take on the suit
:02:16. > :02:26.tonight. This is Christopher Bailey, who runs Burberry. Be made a lovely
:02:26. > :02:27.
:02:27. > :02:32.velvet jacket. Good luck tonight, As the red carpet becomes awash
:02:32. > :02:37.with stars, we shall be taking a closer look at the five contenders
:02:37. > :02:41.for the highly coveted Best Film award. First stop, it's the best of
:02:42. > :02:47.British talent in the brilliant Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. Its
:02:47. > :02:51.leading man and Best Actor nominee, Gary Oldman, will be stopping by
:02:51. > :03:01.for a chat in the second. Right after we've taken a closer look at
:03:01. > :03:04.
:03:04. > :03:12.There is a mole right at the top of the circus. He's been there for
:03:12. > :03:16.years. You are not talking about a kind of fantasy spy. It's not James
:03:16. > :03:21.Bond, it's a completely different at the John Roll together. There
:03:21. > :03:29.are no gadgets, no gizmos, no Aston Martins. Have you got clearance for
:03:29. > :03:35.that? Well, I'm not bloody training it up outside. I know it is one of
:03:35. > :03:39.five men. All I want from you is one code name. Smiley has to figure
:03:39. > :03:47.out these people based on how he understands them. It brings out the
:03:47. > :03:54.human element. I think he's a fascinating character because of
:03:54. > :04:04.his discretion, sobriety, self- control. You don't see that
:04:04. > :04:08.
:04:08. > :04:13.He lets everything come to him up. The room temperature changes to him.
:04:13. > :04:18.He completely and utterly beguiles people into thinking he is harmless.
:04:18. > :04:22.I will do my at most. In life you wouldn't notice him. But under the
:04:22. > :04:32.microscope of the drama, you scrutinise him and you find that
:04:32. > :04:41.
:04:41. > :04:46.this man is seriously intelligent, Congratulations. It is so deserving.
:04:46. > :04:50.Thank you, it's exciting. It's great to have you back on the red
:04:50. > :04:57.carpet and great for you to be nominated. It's been a few years.
:04:57. > :05:02.Let's not put a number on it. But this role, I think I heard you say
:05:02. > :05:11.that you were surprised that you were the director's first choice -
:05:11. > :05:20.is that right? I'm always surprised. Why me? What was it about this role
:05:20. > :05:28.that you were so taken with? remember the series from 1979 and
:05:28. > :05:36.the book. It's an iconic literary character. It is a bit like an act
:05:36. > :05:43.are being asked to play Hamlet. You kind of know what it is. It was
:05:43. > :05:48.exciting but it is hard working in the shadow of Alec Guinness.
:05:48. > :05:53.you brought something of yourself to that as well. With that ensemble
:05:53. > :06:00.cast you had as part of the film, it was incredible. I know, the
:06:01. > :06:07.creme DLA creme of British acting. Six degrees of Harry Potter as well.
:06:07. > :06:11.Who is stuck behind you as well! I'm not finished with you yet. I've
:06:11. > :06:16.got to ask you about the rest of the nominees in your category. You
:06:16. > :06:22.are the only Brit. I've got a good feeling. You never know. I've got
:06:22. > :06:31.everything crossed for you, Gary. Congratulations, nice to see you.
:06:31. > :06:37.Daniel, how are you? I'm good, very good. Are you on official duties
:06:37. > :06:42.this evening? I'm at presenting the award for Best Supporting Actress.
:06:42. > :06:49.That is a great one. It is. I'm lucky enough to have worked with
:06:49. > :06:53.Carey Mulligan a few years ago, but there are no favourites. We will
:06:53. > :06:58.mention everyone else's name later on. This will be balanced later on.
:06:58. > :07:05.Have there been films that have stood out for you this year? Tinker
:07:05. > :07:11.Tailor Soldier Spy, no favourites but... I watched Moneyball the
:07:11. > :07:16.other day and thought that was awesome. I believe that is up for
:07:16. > :07:20.Best adapted screenplay as well. It's a wide and a very dear. That
:07:20. > :07:24.is what is so exciting about it. haven't managed to see nearly all
:07:24. > :07:30.of it, so that will be my big mission in my three weeks off after
:07:30. > :07:40.this is all done. Congratulations with the woman in black, it's a
:07:40. > :07:45.Let's take a look at another of the nominees in the Best Film category.
:07:45. > :07:50.A beautiful, stylised action romance between a getaway driver
:07:50. > :07:56.and a downtrodden single mum. This is Drive up. We'll be chatting to
:07:56. > :08:00.Christina Hendrix from the film in just a moment. You give me a time
:08:00. > :08:06.and a place, I'll give you a five- minute window. Anything happens in
:08:06. > :08:16.that five minutes and I'm Yours. I don't sit in, don't carry a gun. I
:08:16. > :08:16.
:08:16. > :08:22.drive it. Driver is the stunt man, as well as the getaway driver.
:08:22. > :08:27.put this kid behind the wheel, there's nothing he can't do.
:08:27. > :08:32.driver pads his bank account by getting involved in other things.
:08:32. > :08:37.You get your money, whose debt is paid. You never go near his family
:08:37. > :08:41.ever again. It turns out that this particular cava is bad for everyone.
:08:41. > :08:47.He's got to go. It leads to the unravelling of a lot of people's
:08:47. > :08:51.hopes and dreams. The driver in the film is a hard man, half machine
:08:51. > :08:57.concept. He doesn't understand the difference until he realises that
:08:57. > :09:02.he falls in love. It's through that process that the machine eventually
:09:02. > :09:06.takes over the human side. We all have theories about who he is but
:09:06. > :09:10.it's best to leave it up to the audience. It's wild, it's an
:09:10. > :09:15.experiment because you have this family drama and you have this
:09:15. > :09:22.really intense, violent, visceral revenge film. It sort of feels like
:09:22. > :09:27.a dream that turns into a nightmare. Congratulations on the recognition
:09:27. > :09:31.Drive was getting. What a film, I loved it. It is testament to the
:09:31. > :09:36.variety of films that are doing so well this year. I think so. I'm
:09:36. > :09:42.really proud to be a part of it and excited to be here to support it.
:09:42. > :09:47.Hold the lead Nicholas will wind. Keep your fingers crossed. Ryan
:09:47. > :09:52.Gosling seems to be the man of the moment. Ladies swoon at the mere
:09:52. > :09:55.mention of his name. What is you like to work with? Divine. Is an
:09:55. > :10:02.extraordinary act and a real professional. Everything you want
:10:02. > :10:06.him to be, he is. He seems to be versatile over the types of roles
:10:06. > :10:11.he can do. Yes, I think he is slowly conquering the movie
:10:11. > :10:15.business. He is taking over the world. I've got to ask what you are
:10:15. > :10:24.wearing tonight because you are gorgeous. I am wearing Vivienne
:10:24. > :10:32.Westwood. Keeping it British. How are you, Michael Fassbender?
:10:32. > :10:37.Pretty good. I was at the awards in Dublin last night. I just got here
:10:37. > :10:44.this afternoon. Ready to pick up another one? I don't know about
:10:44. > :10:52.that. I'm just happy to be here. It's an amazing group of people to
:10:52. > :10:55.be in a category with. Absolutely. It is great. I've said it before,
:10:55. > :10:59.especially the type of film, if it can encourage people to go and see
:10:59. > :11:03.it, sometimes people will be a bit put off by what people think it is,
:11:03. > :11:09.so this really helps and will hopefully encourage people to go
:11:09. > :11:15.out and watch it. Have you met George Clooney and Brad Pitt?
:11:15. > :11:21.I work with Brad Pitt, I knew him up from working with him on a film.
:11:21. > :11:27.I met George Clooney when I was out at the Golden Globes. They are
:11:27. > :11:31.great, they are at the top of what they do. Not only as actors but
:11:31. > :11:37.producers. George is a director as well. They are really good guys as
:11:37. > :11:40.well. It's nice. But he managed to do this great thing where the small,
:11:40. > :11:43.independent films you are making of the ones that are getting
:11:43. > :11:52.recognition, as well as doing the mainstream, bigger films as well.
:11:52. > :12:00.Not everyone manages to achieve that. I know, touch wood! Touch
:12:01. > :12:06.them together. The Scottish kiss! I've just been lucky. I've been
:12:06. > :12:11.surrounded by really talented people. It stacks things in your
:12:11. > :12:15.favour. It is always going to be a risk. You think, this looks
:12:15. > :12:19.interesting to me but you don't know how people will take to it.
:12:19. > :12:29.But I've been working with really good people. Good luck for tonight.
:12:29. > :12:32.
:12:32. > :12:34.Taking a breather from red carpet are rivals for a second, next stop
:12:34. > :12:40.- sisters are doing it for themselves in one of this year's
:12:40. > :12:44.best female ensembles. Leading lady pilot died this -- Viola Davis will
:12:44. > :12:49.be joining me shortly for a chat. Now let's take a look at the story
:12:49. > :12:54.behind The Help, another runner for the Best Film. They help us about
:12:54. > :12:58.these unlikely women all coming together to create change. It was a
:12:58. > :13:07.chance for me to be in a movie that illuminated a part of our history
:13:07. > :13:13.that we have a tendency to be silent about. The story mainly
:13:13. > :13:16.focuses around Skeeter or and Mini. And also Aibileen. It is hard for
:13:16. > :13:21.Aibileen to tell her stories because she's been told she is
:13:21. > :13:25.invisible. But all the sudden someone says, who are you? I want
:13:25. > :13:30.to interview you. Skeeter just graduated with a degree in
:13:30. > :13:36.journalism. Two people from very different worlds in very dangerous
:13:36. > :13:39.circumstances come together into each other's lives.
:13:39. > :13:43.Skeeter is trying to impress this publisher in New York. You said to
:13:43. > :13:49.write about what disturbs me. I'd like to write something from the
:13:49. > :13:53.point of view of The Help. I was raised by a coloured woman. We love
:13:53. > :14:01.them and they love us but they can't even use the toilets in our
:14:01. > :14:06.houses. You are fired! Mini is very vocal because she refuses to be
:14:06. > :14:10.invisible. It's a really interesting dynamic. They start an
:14:10. > :14:18.expose of sorts with all the maids of Jackson, Mississippi. I'm going
:14:18. > :14:22.to do it. We all laugh. I've got to come up with the questions, too?!
:14:22. > :14:32.It takes both of the races to work together to get back story out
:14:32. > :14:36.
:14:36. > :14:41.Congratulations on your Best Actress nomination. How much do you
:14:41. > :14:44.want to be in this film? It's a great film. I wanted to be in this
:14:44. > :14:50.film so bad. I did not want to be in the audience watching this film
:14:50. > :14:55.are thinking, gosh, I want to be a part of this. I'm so happy, I feel
:14:55. > :14:59.like I've won the lottery in every way this year. It's been a dream up.
:14:59. > :15:02.It has literally transformed my life The. And the film is getting
:15:02. > :15:05.such a great response from fans, but also in terms of awards
:15:05. > :15:11.ceremonies. It must be very fulfilling for you and the rest of
:15:11. > :15:17.the cast. Absolutely. It feels like hard work has paid off. You want
:15:17. > :15:22.the audience to respond to it, you want people to respond or your work,
:15:22. > :15:27.otherwise you are a legend in your own mind. It has been wonderful. I
:15:27. > :15:37.think it has been deserved, I really do. I agree. Have a great
:15:37. > :15:39.
:15:39. > :15:47.It must feel nice when you walk up the carpet and they are yelling
:15:47. > :15:51.your name. Yes. I thought that was your voice! I listened to your mix
:15:51. > :15:56.CD all of the time. I can't believe that. That was three years ago.
:15:56. > :16:01.beautiful gesture on your part. Thank cue. Congratulations on this
:16:01. > :16:05.role in Moneyball. It must be nice to get recognition for this role.
:16:05. > :16:11.It is incredible. To be nominated for a BAFTA and an Academy Award,
:16:11. > :16:17.it is very surreal. It shows us the Vorsah -- versatility of you as an
:16:17. > :16:22.actor. We love you in those roles. It shows you have more to offer.
:16:22. > :16:28.am just an actor. I like to play different parts. It is important to
:16:29. > :16:33.challenge yourself. What about working with someone who has years
:16:33. > :16:39.of knowledge like Brad Pitt? He must be able to suck in...
:16:39. > :16:43.doesn't know anything. He is the greatest! He is such a good
:16:43. > :16:48.producer, a good actor. He has made such cool and brave choices and I
:16:48. > :16:54.respect him so much. Congratulations. Thank you. Hoping
:16:54. > :17:04.to see you on the stage. Almost 1,000% sure I will win! Thank you
:17:04. > :17:04.
:17:05. > :17:10.Time once again to pause for a moment and take a look at another
:17:10. > :17:14.contender in the Best Film category. Funny, adorable and nominated for
:17:15. > :17:19.12 awards tonight, it is the artist. Its leading man and nominated for
:17:19. > :17:22.Best actor, Jean Dujardin, will be chatting to us in a moment,
:17:22. > :17:32.straight after we have seen this love letter to the Hollywood silent
:17:32. > :17:48.
:17:48. > :17:58.It is the story of a silent movie actor and he is a massive star. He
:17:58. > :18:01.
:18:01. > :18:10.meets a young lady. He will fold He is a joker, sometimes arrogant.
:18:10. > :18:18.A nice guy. No instinct for the future. George Valentin can't make
:18:18. > :18:24.the adaptation into talkies and resists. He hits bottom. It is the
:18:24. > :18:34.rise of the young actress who will become very famous. This girl,
:18:34. > :18:47.
:18:47. > :18:57.She has definitely got star quality, It is a love story not only for a
:18:57. > :19:11.
:19:11. > :19:20.man and woman, it is also a love Crazy, crazy. Jean Dujardin, how
:19:20. > :19:25.are you? Fine. It is cold. Come on, yes. Like France. You should be
:19:25. > :19:33.used to it. Congratulations on this film. Thank you, I'm very happy and
:19:33. > :19:37.very proud. I am proud for the artist and the film. Did you ever
:19:37. > :19:47.expect that this film would capture people's imaginations the way it
:19:47. > :19:52.
:19:52. > :19:58.has? No. It is a small movie, 35 days for the shooting. It is just a
:19:58. > :20:07.simple movie, a love story. It is unbelievable. Did you discover you
:20:07. > :20:15.have very good cheekbones after all of the expressiveness? Les! It is
:20:16. > :20:21.my face, I'm sorry. Gorgeous. beautiful. A my nose, my eyebrows.

:20:34. > :20:40.Still to come, we will take a look at our remaining Best Film
:20:40. > :20:45.contender and chatting to both stars. First, we know they can act,

:21:00. > :21:10.my dress! I am wearing a very beautiful suit that was made by

:21:21. > :21:25.
:21:25. > :21:28.million dollars. Everybody here is Red carpet glamour and it is at its
:21:28. > :21:34.finest. Speaking of which, the gorgeous Michelle Williams. How are
:21:34. > :21:43.you? A little gold. What are you wearing? A dress from age and them.
:21:43. > :21:48.Wow! I know you're a little cold. Congratulations on the nomination.
:21:48. > :21:52.An incredible role. They don't come along very often for actresses.
:21:52. > :21:57.is once-in-a-lifetime. In terms of the dedication you put into
:21:57. > :22:03.recreating it. It was like changing for you. It was. It is the hardest
:22:03. > :22:07.I have ever worked on a movie. lived it. You were reading love
:22:07. > :22:12.stories in a Marilyn voice to your girls. I did, she became a big part
:22:12. > :22:17.of our lives. How does it feel to be in a category with people like
:22:17. > :22:26.Meryl Streep? Such a thrill. I am such a fan of her. You look
:22:26. > :22:32.gorgeous, go and get warm. Good Time to take a look at the last of
:22:32. > :22:36.our contenders for the best film. With equal amount of laughs and
:22:36. > :22:42.tears, George Clooney plays a Hawaiian landowner who has to deal
:22:42. > :22:47.with male menopause and a desire -- dysfunctional family in their
:22:47. > :22:53.descendants. George will be here in person after this. I am ready now,
:22:53. > :23:03.ready to talk, ready to change. I am ready to be a real husband and a
:23:03. > :23:03.
:23:03. > :23:08.real father. Just wake up. Please, What you've been going through, it
:23:08. > :23:13.is a tough deal. Just trying to keep my head above water. It is a
:23:13. > :23:17.story about Matt King, who is a father and her husband, and is not
:23:17. > :23:26.really great at either of them. don't know what to do. You need to
:23:26. > :23:33.spend more time with her. He is now in charge of these two girls who he
:23:33. > :23:38.doesn't know very well. Shut up! Easy. Where did you learn to talk
:23:38. > :23:43.like that? It is kind of like a lot of teachers' relationships --
:23:43. > :23:47.children's relationships with their fathers. I will be a lot more civil
:23:47. > :23:51.if he's around. Don't ever do that to me again. She loves him and she
:23:51. > :24:00.knows he has a lot to offer, but she looks at him as a child. She
:24:00. > :24:08.takes on the parenting role. You don't have a clue, do you? Mum was
:24:08. > :24:14.cheating on you. I am the antithesis of Matt King. I would
:24:14. > :24:18.like to know who my life was -- wife was seeing. He is stoic and in
:24:18. > :24:26.his own world. Brian is able to pay attention to her. You might not be
:24:26. > :24:31.able to hear this right now, but she was lonely. Who are you? The
:24:31. > :24:41.anything I know for sure if you are a god damn liar. This is a story of
:24:41. > :24:51.
:24:51. > :24:59.his slow and gentle a wakening. -- Higher! How are you? Good to see
:24:59. > :25:06.you. You look very nice. So do you. Are you staying warm? Not bad, I
:25:06. > :25:10.have thermals. How are you? Good. Congratulations on this film. It
:25:10. > :25:15.doesn't rely on anything apart from great performances and great story.
:25:15. > :25:24.And bad shirts. And high trousers! I like that. Nominated for best
:25:24. > :25:33.actor. Have you got a speech? think it will probably be a Gary
:25:33. > :25:39.Oldman board Jean de Jardine. I get the sense... Brits love you. I will
