13 Feb – The 70th British Academy Film Awards (BAFTA) has recently wrapped up in London and with that comes the news that "La La Land" has once again dominated a major film awards ceremony.
Nominated for 11 out of the 26 competing categories, the musical film was able to bag five wins in total.
Ryan Gosling failed to win in the Best Actor category but Emma Stone once again took home the Best Actress award. The movie also won in the Best Director and Best Film categories.
Meanwhile, Tom Holland, the 20-year-old lead actor of the upcoming "Spider-Man: Homecoming", was awarded the Rising Star Award.
