Red Carpet glamour at Britain's BAFTA Awards

Stars from around the world attended the British Academy of Film and Television Arts Awards 2008 (BAFTA) at London's Royal Opera house, Sunday, February 10.


The awards assumed added significance this year because the Hollywood writer's strike stripped the Golden Globes, which traditionally rank next to the Oscars, to a mere press event.

Those present at the awards ceremony included Keira Knightly, Sienna Miller, Jessica Biel, Kate Hudson, Eva Green, Emily Blunt, Victoria Silvestedt, Tilda Swinton, Rosamund Pike, Natassia Malthe and Natascha McElhone among others.

Daniel Day-Lewis was named Best Actor for his role in There Will Be Blood, and French actress Marion Cotillard took the Best Actress award home for La Vie En Rose, in which she played singer Edith Piaf.

Atonement, which had been nominated in 14 categories, was named the best film but managed just one more award in the Production Design category.
