With the BAFTAs over for another year, it’s time to look back on the lists of nominees and personal favourites and wonder ‘why didn’t they win?!’ (I’m certainly doing so this morning in terms of Lupita Nyong’o). To accompany the list of Best Film contenders, British artist La Boca released five stunning posters, managing to sum up each film with a mix of bold colours and simple iconography.
My favourite is definitely the one for Paul Greengrass’ CAPTAIN PHILLIPS, but the harrowing scarred violin for 12 YEARS A SLAVE is a close second. I absolutely loved CAPTAIN PHILLIPS and was pleasantly surprised to see Barkhad Abdi win Best Supporting Actor – very well deserved!
Check out the posters below and let us know your favourite. Originally printed in the 2014 BAFTA Awards brochure, you can buy prints here. You can view the full list of winners here.
AMERICAN HUSTLE – David O. Russell
CAPTAIN PHILLIPS – Paul Greengrass
And the winner is…
12 YEARS A SLAVE – Steve McQueen

Considering Jazmine grew up watching CARRY ON SCREAMING, THE LION KING and JURASSIC PARK on repeat for weeks on end, it made sense for her to study film at London South Bank University. It’s also a good thing that her course requires a lot of sitting down because she’s very accident-prone. When she’s not examining her bruises, she likes pretending that she doesn’t live in Southend-On-Sea and spends hours mindlessly blogging. Favourite films include BLUE VALENTINE, ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND and TOY STORY 2.
