The historical drama film “Oppenheimer” has received the most nominations for the BAFTA Film Awards in London. The film, directed by Christopher Nolan, is about the making of the atomic bomb during World War Two. It has already won several prizes and is expected to win multiple awards at the BAFTAs. “Oppenheimer” dominated the Golden Globes and leads nominations for the Academy Awards as well. The film will compete for best film alongside “Poor Things,” “Killers of the Flower Moon,” “Anatomy of a Fall,” and “The Holdovers.” Cillian Murphy and Emma Stone are leading the betting odds for the leading acting categories. Da’Vine Joy Randolph is expected to win the supporting actress category for her role in “The Holdovers.” The film “Barbie” has received five nominations but was not included in the director category, which has raised some questions. The BAFTAs will take place on Sunday at London’s Royal Festival Hall.
