9 January 2015

Film4 films have received 10 nominations in this year’s BAFTA’s, including nominations for both Yann Demange’s ’71 and Jonathan Glazer’s Under the Skin in the Outstanding British Film category. Mike Leigh’s critically-acclaimed and most commercially successful film to date, Mr. Turner, receives four nominations.

 

The nominations cement Film4’s position as a key force in the British film industry. In addition, the acknowledgement of debut directors Yann Demange (’71), Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard (20,000 Days on Earth) and star of '71 and Starred Up, Jack O'Connell, who features in the Rising Star category, further highlights our commitment to finding and nurturing British talent.
