74th British Academy Film Awards, Opening Night, Royal Albert Hall, London
LONDON (Reuters) – “Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom”, a jazz drama set in 1920s Chicago, won two awards at the opening of the BAFTAs on Saturday, but the race for the main prizes remains open with a list of contenders that shines a spotlight on diversity.
The British Academy of Film and Television Arts ceremony is being held virtually over two nights as the COVID-19 pandemic prevents the usual celebrity-packed show with a live audience.
Saturday’s opening mainly focused on the crafts side of film-making and handed out nine awards. “Ma Rainey”, starring Viola Davis and the late Chadwick Boseman, won for costume design and makeup and hair. Hollywood throwback “Mank” won for production design.
