The Bafta/LA Britannia awards were also held last night, which saw Sean Locke Danny Boyle receive a directing award from host Stephen Fry...

Robert De Niro received the Stanley Kubrick award for excellence in film, Kirk Douglas was awarded a trophy for his worldwide contribution to filmed entertainment and actor Colin Firth was honoured with a humanitarian award.

Emily Blunt was named British artist of the year and said of her award:

"To be honoured with something that's so emblematic of where I'm from is really exciting."

Robert De Niro, a man of few words said he was "happy" to be at the even in LA and Boyle added his aeward was "lovely".

Also at the event, Benicio Del Toro, couple Freida Pinto and Dev Patel, Clare Danes and Minnie Driver, who didn't win anything...

 

  • Benicio del Toro has really dirtied his CV for his brilliant depiction of Che, right in the fucking faces of the reactionary ultra-conservatives in Hollywood. Good on yer pal, don't get a sore arse sitting around for the LA plum jobs, though...

  • BAFTA LA? And we needed this because the BAFTAs and the Oscars (not to mention the Globes, Emmys, Tonys and every other circle jerk) aren't enough?

  • Picture 3 - Kirk Douglas. Nooooo! He looks as if he's in pain. He probably thinks he's dead.

  • I can't believe pretty girl Pinto is going out with Dev Patel. I know looks aren't important except they are. If his face is that hang-down, what must his cock look like?

  • Minnie Driver looks a bit like David Coulthard - in a nice way
