For those around here (almost all of us) who have been rooting for Duncan Jones’ Moon, today is a day for a bit of celebration. Jones led off today’s ceremony for the British Academy of Film and Television Awards (BAFTA) with a win for Outstanding Debut with his first film, the excellent cerebral piece of sci-fi that it was. Reports say that Jones was very emotional in accepting his award, completing a run that began last year at the Sundance Film Festival. Below you will find both his emotional speech and his post-speech interview:
As for the rest of the awards, The Hurt Locker continued its awards season dominance, taking home six awards, including Best Film. Fish Tank — which features one of the year’s best performances from Michael Fassbender — won the Outstanding British Film award, with Colin Firth (A Single Man) and Carey Mulligan (An Education) taking home best actor and actress awards, respectively. The rest is all very predictable, following suit with the American guild awards. Mark Boal and the Up in the Air duo taking the screenplay awards, with Christoph Waltz and Mo’Nique winning best supporting awards.
