BAFTAs 2022: Jane Campion wins for Power of the Dog, Kodi Smit-McPhee misses out as Lady Gaga stuns

Lady Gaga stunned the BAFTAs with a plunging gown as Australian actor Kodi Smit-McPhee missed out on two gongs. See the full winners list.

Australian actor Kodi Smit-McPhee missed out on both the awards he was nominated for, but New Zealand’s Jane Campion won one of her two categories at the BAFTA film awards in London.

Campion won best Director for The Power of the Dog, firming up her favouritism for the same category at the Oscars after also winning at the Directors Guild awards on Sunday. She missed out in the Adapted Screenplay category.

Smit-McPhee lost in the Supporting Actor category and the Rising Star category. The supporting category was won by CODA‘s Troy Kotsur, the first deaf actor to win a BAFTA.

Smit-McPhee was Australia’s only hope for an acting gong at the awards after he was nominated in the Supporting Actor category for his performance in Jane Campion’s tale of toxic masculinity in the early 20th century American West, The Power of the Dog.

Smith-McPhee, who has already won a Golden Globe and is up for an Oscar later this month, was also nominated for the publicly voted EE Rising Star Award.

Campion was up for the Best Film, Best Director, and Best Adapted Screenplay awards for the film. (She was nominated for the same three awards in 1994 for The Piano but didn’t win.)

The ceremony, hosted by Aussie Rebel Wilson, is the award’s first in-person event since the start of the pandemic.

Stars showed their support for Ukraine at the event. Benedict Cumberbatch was among those wearing a badge or bow with the colours of the country’s flag, which he said was “about standing in solidarity”.

Sci-fi epic Dune and Campion’s The Power of the Dog lead nominations at the London ceremony with 11 and eight nods respectively.

They were vying with homegrown-favourite Kenneth Branagh’s semi-autobiographical Belfast, Adam McKay’s end-of-world comedy Don’t Look Up, and Paul Thomas Anderson’s 1970s nostalgia-driven Licorice Pizza for the best film prize.

Belfast received a total of six nominations for its coming-of-age account of Northern Ireland religious tensions in 1969, while Daniel Craig’s final outing as James Bond in No Time to Die has five, as does Licorice Pizza and Steven Spielberg’s West Side Story remake.

Showbiz icon Shirley Bassey, 85, who has sung three Bond movie themes, opened the ceremony with a celebration of 60 years of the mega-franchise.
