In 2014, Jack O'Connell gave four very different performances in four very different films (that's Starred Up, 300: Rise Of An Empire, '71 and Unbroken, all in one year). The Derby actor's been on the radar of anyone interested in promising up-and-coming thesps for a while now, but O'Connell's win, for Rising Star, at last night's BAFTA ceremony confirmed what enormous talent he'd shown already at the age of just 24. Starred Up and '71 were too indie to ever get any recognition at the Oscars, while Unbroken unfortunately turned out to be no awards darling but a respectfully dreary WWII drama and biopic. This meant that O'Connell's outstanding work in all three would go unrecognised by AMPAS in 2015. Not so by BAFTA. Though the Rising Star Award is voted for by the public, the ceremony nonetheless gave O'Connell some much-deserved airtime when it was announced in front of his peers and viewers at home that his incredible year wouldn't go totally unrewarded by the mainstream.
