BAFTA Movie Award Winners - THE ARTIST Takes Home Seven

Here's the full list of award winners for this years British Academy Film Awards, presented by the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA). The Artist ended up taking home seven awards including Best Film, Best Actor, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, Best Cinematography, Best Original Music and Best Costume Design. This really isn't that surprising, I have a feeling this movie will end up sweeping the Oscars as well. It's also not surprising that Meryl Streep took home the award for Best Actress. It always seems like she's always surprised when she wins, but the rest of us all know it's coming. Maybe she's just acting surprised. Then of course Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy won a couple of awards, unfortunately Gary Oldman didn't win Best Actor.

Here’s the full list of nominations with the winners bolded.
