'The Revenant' Wins Best Film at 2016 BAFTA Awards
"The Revenant" took home five trophies yesterday at the 2016 BAFTA Awards, making the Oscar race even tighter and more unpredictable.
The movie won Best Film, Best Actor for Leonardo DiCaprio, Best Director for Alejandro Alejandro G. Iñárritu, Best Cinematography for Emmanuel Lubezki, and Best Sound. This was Lubezki's third win in a row.
DiCaprio continues to cement his near-lock to win the coveted Academy Award missing from his mantle, as did Brie Larson, who won Best Actress for "Room." Mark Rylance and Kate Winslet took the prizes in the supporting categories.
Aside from "The Revenant," "Mad Max: Fury Road" was the night's big winner with four awards:
Costume Design, Makeup and Hair, Production Design, and Editing.
