The BAFTA 2022 nominations have been announced, and Denis Villeneuve's sci-fi epic Dune leads the way with 11 nominations, including Best Film and Adapted Screenplay. Jane Campion's slow burn Western, The Power of the Dog, picked up eight nominations, including acting nods for Benedict Cumberbatch, Jesse Plemons, and Kodi Smit-McPhee, and Kenneth Branagh's semi-autobiographical Belfast got six nominations.
Coming of age film Licorice Pizza, musical extravaganza West Side Story, and the latest Bond flick No Time to Die also did well, with five nominations each. 2022 has been a good year for recognizing British talent, too – smaller releases like After Love and Boiling Point both picked up four nods, including recognition in the Best Film and Outstanding British Film categories, while Rebecca Hall's debut feature Passing, about two friends living very different lives in '20s New York, also achieved four nominations.
