BAFTA - Britischer Filmpreis 2018
February 18, 2018 - “Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri” erhielt fünf Auszeichnungen bei den BAFTA Filmpreisen in London am Sonntag, darunter Bester Film und Bester Hauptdarsteller für Frances McDormand und für eine Nebenrolle mit Sam Rockwell.
Writer-director Martin McDonagh also won for the film’s original screenplay. The U.S.-set film also won the best British film honours, qualifying on the basis of its creative team and the companies involved in producing it, many of whom are British.
Mexican director Guillermo del Toro took the directing honours for his fantasy “The Shape of Water,” Gary Oldman took the top male acting prize for his portrayal of Winston Churchill in “Darkest Hour,” and Allison Janney was honoured for her supporting turn in “I, Tonya.”
