BAFTA Winners!

The usual suspects...Forest Whitaker takes Best Actor, The Queen takes Best Film and Helen Mirren, naturally, takes Best Actress. Alan Arkin took Best Supporting Actor, but he wasn't up against Murphy. Still, I'm really tempted to predict him. There has to be SOME sort of surprise. Marty lost to Greengrass :-(, but I don't think that'll happen at the Oscars. Or else I hope it won't so much that I think it won't... Here are the winners...
