Reading through the acting nominations at the BAFTAs is awfully satisfying, because so, so many amazing performances that were snubbed by the Oscars got their due here. Where to even begin?

Jim Carrey (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind), Tilda Swinton (We Need to Talk About Kevin), Michael Fassbender (Shame), Javier Bardem (Skyfall), Emma Thompson (Saving Mr Banks), Jake Gyllenhaal (Nightcrawler), Idris Elba (Beasts of No Nation), Benicio Del Toro (Sicario), Amy Adams (Arrival), Taron Egerton (Rocketman), Caitriona Balfe (Belfast), Danielle Deadwyler (Till), Albrecht Schuch (All Quiet on the Western Front)... yep, there's a lot of them.

You really do love to see it.
