Full List of BAFTA Winners
This just arrived via press release. The winners have also been public for a number of hours now. So the question is...is anyone going to bother watching now? What with the cat TOTALLY out of the bag?The British Academy handed out kudos this evening and top honors for Best Film predictably went to Joe Wright's "Atonement." Paul Thomas Anderson and Javier Bardem continued their dominance in the leading and supporting actor categories for "There Will Be Blood" and "No Country for Old Men" respectively, while surprises were in store for the ladies. Marion Cotillard ("La Vie en Rose") and Tilda Swinton ("Michael Clayton") were anointed, some considerable awards fuel for their respective campaigns. But balloting will close very soon.
"La Vie en Rose" was the night's biggest winner, grabbing four awards. Curiously enough, Best Film winner "Atonement" only recieved one other award, for Best Production Design, and even missed on the Best British Film Award. Explain that one to me.

The BAFTA show finished at 12 Noon Pacific Time (19.00 UK time). By 12.30 journalists were back at their desks and all the wire services had the story out, as did internet radio and all broadcast news services. Kris Tapley should realise there is another world out there and sometimes it can’t, or doesn’t want to, work to an American schedule. I think they are calling this phenomenon globalization – or something.
