Am Sonntagabend des 10. Februar 2019 räumte in der Royal Albert Hall in London vor allem einer ab; der mexikanische Filmemacher Alfonso Cuaron mit seinem Drama ‚Roma‘. Bei den BAFTAs, den British Academy Film Awards, wurde der Film mit vier Trophäen in den Kategorien bester Film, beste Regie, bester fremdsprachiger Film und beste Kinematographie ausgezeichnet. Die Kontroverse, ob ein Film gleichzeitig in den Kategorien „Bester Film“ und „Bester fremdsprachiger Film“ vertreten sein soll, wird sich bei den kommenden Oscars fortsetzen. Dort wird der Film (in den gleichen Kategorien) ebenfalls als großer Favorit gehandelt.
Die meisten Auszeichnungen kann mit sieben an der Zahl aber ‚The Favourite‘ von
Yorgos Lanthimos für sich beanspruchen. Der Historienfilm wurde unter anderem als bester Britischer Film und mit dem besten Original-Drehbuch ausgezeichnet. Zudem erhielt Hauptdarstellerin Olivia Colman als Königin Anne und Rachel Weisz als beste Nebendarstellerin einen BAFTA.
