BAFTA Awards 2022: The awards ceremony took place on Sunday (March 13th, 2022), and The Power of the Dog was named best picture. Jane Campion, a filmmaker from New Zealand, was named best director for "The Power of Dog." She became the third woman to win the prize in its seven-decade history of awards. In 2021, the awards ceremony was conducted online, in which only the presenters and the hosts were available in person. This year, the award ceremony took place at London's Royal Albert Hall. The show was opened by the British Film Academy chairman, Krishnendu Majumdar, and hosted by Australian actor-comedian Rebel Wilson.
The show came up with the glitz, with 85-year-old diva Shirley Bassey and a live orchestra performing "Diamonds Are Forever" to mark the 60th anniversary of the James Bond films, which are Britain's most successful movie export. From 11 nominations, Denis Villeneuve’s Dune, a space epic set on a desert planet, took five trophies. Check below for the complete list of winners.
