“Oppenheimer” Dominates 77th BAFTA Awards with Seven Wins, Including Best Picture and Best Director

Oppenheimer’s epic film about an atomic bomb maker won seven awards, including best picture, best director and best actor, at the 77th BAFTA Awards on Sunday.

Christopher Nolan won the Best Director award for the movie “Oppenheimer,” and star Cillian Murphy won the Best Actor award for his role as J. Robert Oppenheimer, the father of the atomic bomb.

“Oppenheimer” was nominated for 13 awards, but it missed the record of nine awards, which was set half a century ago by “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.”

“Oppenheimer” won the Best Picture race against “Poor Things,” “Killers,” “The Flower Moon,” “Anatomy of a Fall,” and “The Holdovers.”

“Oppenheimer” also won awards for editing, cinematography, and soundtrack, in addition to the best supporting actor award for Robert Downey Jr.

“Oppenheimer” faced stiff competition in what was widely seen as a banner year for cinema and an active awards season at the end of the actors’ and writers’ strikes that shut down Hollywood for months.

Emma Stone won the Best Actress award for her role in the movie “Poor Things,” which also won many artistic and design awards at awards equivalent to the Oscars in Britain.

The Best Supporting Actress award went to Daven Joy Randolph for her role as a boarding school cook in “The Holdovers,” and she said she felt “a responsibility that I do not take lightly” to tell the stories of underrepresented people like her character, Mary.

The Holocaust drama The Zone of Interest – a British production filmed in Poland and starring a largely German cast – also won best British film and best non-English language film, for the first time.

The film about the Ukrainian war, “20 Days in Mariupol,” produced by the Associated Press and the “Frontline” program of the “PBS” network, won the award for best documentary.
