  • Title: La La Land leads the way at this years BAFTA nominations
  • Date: 10th January 2017
  • Summary: LONDON, ENGLAND, UK (JANUARY 10, 2017) (REUTERS) (SOUNDBITE) (English) BAFTA CHIEF EXECUTIVE, AMANDA BERRY, SAYING: "There's a really interesting mix in the acting nominations this year because you've got your first time nominees going up against very experienced and multi-nominated actors. So if you're looking at the leading actor category you have Ryan Gosling and Casey Affleck getting their first BAFTA nominations. Erm I had to double check that because I thought 'surely Ryan Gosling's been nominated before?' And then you have Meryl Streep in the leading actress category. This is her fifteenth nomination." BAFTA AWARD (SOUNDBITE) (English) ACTOR, DOMINIC COOPER, SAYING: "I think as always people have appreciated what's produced here. It's an incredible level of quality and experience and diverse talent in every department and I think that always, especially on these occasions you've got more diverse films from this country than ever before I think."
