Angelina and Loung will be going to London. BAFTA gave them the recognition they were denied at the Oscars because of eligibility concerns. The competition is much tougher than what they faced at the Globes, but FTKMF can now add a BAFTA nomination to its acclaim page. BAFTA Awards takes place Feb. 18.

Hi Emma, yes some hugely talented directors in other categories - Angelina Jolie, Bonni Cohen, Dorota Kobiela, Rungano Nyoni and Lucy Cohen - but more needs to be done to support women getting into and progressing in the industry— BAFTA (@BAFTA) January 9, 2018
The Oscar for Best Director should have Angelina Jolie's name on it, but FIRST THEY KILLED MY FATHER barely even registered. What a shame. It's brilliantly made and never steps wrong once.— MZS (@mattzollerseitz) January 9, 2018
