Here Are All the Nominations for the 2021 BAFTAs

The British Academy of Film and Television Awards (BAFTAs) have recently released the 2021 list of nominees. Like the Oscars and the Golden Globes, the BAFTAs have historically had a distinct lack of diversity with last year's nominees having been all-white and resulting in a number of boycotts of the awards show. This year's nominations list, however, has a bit of...colour.
