Summary at a Glance

It was a big night for Conclave, which claimed the Best Film award having also bagged the prize for Outstanding British Film, Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Editing.

Having hosted last year’s awards show, Tennant returned for a second stint as presenter – opening the ceremony with a big musical number with some help from famous faces in the crowd such as James McAvoy and Selena Gomez.

The Brutalist won four awards including Best Actor and Best Director for Adrien Brody and Brady Corbet respectively.

Best Supporting Actress went to Zoe Saldaña for her role in Emilia Pérez, while Kieran Culkin won Best Supporting Actor for A Real Pain.

One joke that did make it into the broadcast, however, was about the politician’s hair, with Tennant calling it “the boldest architecture” in film – even more so than The Brutalist, which stars Adrien Brody as a visionary architect.
