At the 69th British Academy Film Awards, some of Hollywood’s biggest stars descended on London’s Royal Opera House to find out who is going home with a gong this year.
And after being nominated in numerous categories, The Revenant won a total of five awards, making it the night’s biggest success story.
Leonardo DiCaprio won Best Actor, his first BAFTA win, making it even more likely that he will win an Oscar later this month.
After winning a Golden Globe for her performance, Kate Winslet was recognized again for her role in Steve Jobs, winning the award for Supporting Actress, beating out Alicia Vikander, Rooney Mara, Julie Walters and Jennifer Jason Leigh.
With the event taking place on Valentine’s Day, love was definitely in the air as many actresses opted for red dresses at the awards ceremony, although Cate Blanchett, Alicia Vickander and our very own Kate Winslet kept it classic in black numbers.
How To Be Single star Rebel Wilson opted for a tailored two-piece before taking the stage to present Best Supporting Actor and deliver a humorous speech that poked fun at the Oscars in the variety series.
