Joker and The Irishman lead the list of 2020 BAFTA nominations, snagging eleven and ten nominations respectively. Scorsese's three-hour epic received a nod in almost every major category, where the relentlessly dark Joker surprisingly swept up as well, considering its middling critical reception. Saoirse Ronan received a well-deserved nod for her portrayal of the beloved Jo March in Little Women, joining Scarlett Johansson, Charlize Theron, Jessie Buckley and Renée Zellweger in the Best Actress category.
In less surprising happenings, the nominations are severely lacking in diversity and the BAFTAs are, yet again, sticking to tradition. The acting categories contain all-white nominees, despite tour-de-forces in Bong Joon-ho's Parasite. The biggest snub of all is perhaps Greta Gerwig, who was shut out of both Golden Globe and BAFTA nominations for her directorial work in Little Women, to an all-male lineup.
