British director Steve McQueens 12 Years A Slave took home two of the biggest awards on Sunday night but it was Alfonso Cuaron’s Gravity that dominated the BAFTA, winning six of the 11 honours it was nominated for.
12 Years A Slave won BAFTA for best film and McQueen in his speech said that there were “21 million people living in slavery as we sit here now.” Chiwetel Ejiofor won the best actor for the film.
Stars showed up in style for the Red Carpet event and sizzled up the 67th annual BAFTA Film Awards.
The event, at London’s Royal Opera House in Covent Garden, was hosted by Stephen Fry with big name guests including Chiwetel Ejiofor and Gillian Anderson, Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, Tom Hanks, Steve Coogan, Sally Hawkins, Lupita Nyong’o, Daniel Bruhl, Emma Thompson, Bradley Cooper, Bruce Dern and Judi Dench. -Zeenews
