    BAFTA awards 2020: '1917' and 'Parasite' win big
  • The 73rd British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) awards were presented on Sunday at the Royal Albert Hall in London.

    Sam Mendes's epic war drama 1917 dominated the awards, winning in as many as seven categories, including Best film and Best director, while Bong Joon-ho's globally acclaimed Parasite grabbed two awards.

    Here are all the winners of BAFTA 2020.

    Apart from Best film and Best director, it also won awards for Best special visual effects, Best cinematography, Best production design, Best sound, and Outstanding British film.

    1917 previously grabbed Best drama and Best director at Golden Globes, and is a promising contender at upcoming Oscars ceremony.

  • Todd Phillips's comicbook-inspired psychological thriller film Joker was expected to win big at the ceremony, after securing 11 nominations, the most for any film.

    However, it ended up winning only three, including Best Actor for Joaquin Phoenix, the newly-added Best casting award, and the Best original score.

    Meanwhile, Joker has 11 nominations across categories at the 92nd Academy awards, scheduled for Monday, February 10.

  • While receiving his award for Best Actor, Phoenix said that he felt "conflicted".

    He said, "I think that we send a very clear message to people of color that you're not welcome here."

    Notably, this time BAFTA faced severe criticism for not including people of color and women in key categories.

    Similar complaints have also been made about Golden Globes and Academy awards.
