Revisionist war film leads radical shortlist, with The Banshees of Inisherin and Everything Everywhere All At Once each picking up 10 nominations
All Quiet on the Western Front, Edward Berger’s devastating Netflix drama about an idealistic German soldier sent to the trenches, has been named frontrunner at this year’s British Academy of Film and Television Awards.
The film is shortlisted for 14 prizes, including best film, director, supporting actor and adapted screenplay. This means it ties with Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000) as the film with the most nominations not in the English language; Ang Lee’s martial arts epic went on to win four.
