The longlist of nominees for the 2012 Orange British Academy Film Awards, better known as the BAFTAs, have been announced. The awards are always significant as an indicator of what will possibly end up on the 84th Academy Awards.
There were no major surprises in terms of the films nominated, with Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy and My Week with Marilyn leading the pack with 16 mentions each. The Artist, which has been the favourite in almost every other awards ceremony to date, still received 13 mentions. Of course, this won’t mean they get that many nominations when the final list is released on 17 January 2012.
The longlist was arrived upon from Round One voting of the Orange British Academy, and they note that Documentary, Outstanding British Film and Film Not in the English Language are Chapter votes in Rounds One and Two of voting. The asterisks below indicate that there was a tie in the Chapter vote in Supporting Actress, six individuals are flagged in this category.
The BAFTA ceremony will take place on 17 February 2012.
