The only film to capture more than a pair of awards at this year’s British Academy Awards was La La Land, which took home five awards. It didn’t dominate these awards as much as many feel it will do at the Oscars. Emma Stone may have just won her ticket to her first Oscar win for La La Land, which a high profile win today. Dev Patel may have put a dent in Mahershala Ali’s crowning as Best Supporting Actor, but Patel is British and they do sometimes have a predilection for hometown players at BAFTA. Where many feel that La La Land will triumph at the Oscars, it went home empty-handed. Best Film Editing, Best Production Design, and Best Sound all went other directions. That doesn’t mean they won’t be awarded at the Oscars, but it does make one question whether La La Land is as certain w inner as once believed.
