The film is seen as a successor to the likes of Parasite in moving from acclaim at Cannes, where it took three prizes, to a substantial showing at the Oscars, where it is up for four awards including best picture and best director. The awards were decided by the 7,000 members of the British Film Academy, which has undergone a considerable behind-the-scenes overhaul since the backlash to the lack of diversity in its shortlists two years ago. A raft of 220 new rules and regulations were brought in, including quotas for film-makers and the compulsory viewing by voters of at least 15 randomly selected titles in contention. Prince Andrew’s evening at Pizza Express in Woking also merited a mention, as did Oprah Winfrey’s TV interview with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, the drama and tension of which Wilson praised. DeBose paid tribute to the film’s casting director, Cindy Tolan, who earlier in the evening triumphed in her category. This was blurred out in the pre-watershed TV broadcast, which Wilson had previously vowed would not prevent her from delivering as risque a ceremony as possible.

‘The Power of the Dog’ Wins Best Film at Wide-Open BAFTAs (unknown)

Jane Campion won the best director prize at Britain's Academy Awards for that tense western in an evening that saw a host of surprise winners.

At that award ceremony, Campion garnered attention when asked by Variety about disparaging comments that the actor Sam Elliott made about her movie, including questioning the “allusions to homosexuality” in the film. Campion also won best director — the third woman to take the prize in the award’s history — increasing her momentum ahead of this year’s Academy Awards.

Jane Campion rejects Sam Elliott's 'Power of the Dog' rant (Los Angeles Times)

'Power of the Dog' director Jane Campion called actor Sam Elliott's demeaning remarks about the Oscar-nominated western 'a little bit sexist.'

“I consider myself a creator. And the West is a mythic space, and there’s a lot of room on the range.” In a red-carpet interview with Variety at Saturday’s Directors Guild of America Awards, Campion rejected Elliott’s scathing take on the acclaimed Netflix film. Elliott — who made a name for himself acting in westerns — drew sharp criticism earlier this month for complaining about “The Power of the Dog” and its “allusions to homosexuality” on comic Marc Maron’s podcast. He’s an actor. “The Power of the Dog” writer and director Jane Campion has responded to actor Sam Elliott’s derogatory comments about her Oscar-nominated western drama.
