Edward Berger won best director, whilst the Netflix First World War drama also collected best film not in the English language, adapted screenplay, sound, original score and cinematography.

In his speech, Berger praised un-nominated lead actor Felix Kammerer, saying: “without your performance, we wouldn’t have had a single nomination”.

The event was held tonight (February 19) at London’s Royal Festival Hall on the Southbank, with Richard E. Grant hosting the ceremony for the first time.

Despite missing out on the top prize, it was also a good night for The Banshees Of Inisherin, which claimed outstanding British film, original screenplay, plus the supporting actor prizes for Barry Keoghan (competing against co-star Brendan Gleeson) and Kerry Condon, who thanked her horses and chickens in her speech.

Austin Butler won the ultra-competitive best actor category for Elvis, which also picked up Baftas for make-up and hair, costume design and casting. Butler thanked the Presley family, saying: “I hope I made you proud”.

Cate Blanchett won best actress for her portrayal of a conductor whose life unravels in Tár, a role she described in her speech as “very dangerous and career-ending potentially”. 

As expected, Charlotte Wells won the outstanding debut prize for Aftersun, its one award of the night.

Guillermo Del Toro’s Pinocchio secured the animated film award, whilst Navalny picked up the documentary prize. In their speech, the Navalny team paid tribute to those arrested by the Putin regime.

In his opening monologue, Grant promised that “nobody on my watch gets slapped tonight”, referencing the Will Smith Oscar slap.

The ceremony took place ahead of the BBC One broadcast, but in a change from previous years went live for the final four awards. 

A moment edited out of the broadcast was when Carey Mulligan was mistakenly announced as the winner of best supporting actress by presenter Troy Kotsur, due to an error from the sign language interpreter providing voiceover for the audience.
