Significantly this year both the BAFTA for best actor and actress have gone to performers past 70. Again Frances MacDormand not getting awarded for Nomadland would have been too much of a cop-out. Just because she is no stranger to awards, it doesn’t follow that she should be put on the backseat. Ms MacDormand is spectacularly authentic in Nomadland. I didn’t catch a single false note in her portrayal.
The Indian presence at the BAFTA awards was strong this year. Besides Adarsh Gourav , Irrfan and Rishi Kapoor were honoured. Priyanka Chopra regaled her fans on the red carpet in a dangerously risqué dress.
