London: One Battle After Another" and "Sinners" led the shortlist Tuesday of films competing at Britain's BAFTA awards next month, ahead of the Oscars in mid-March in which both also dominate the nominations.
"One Battle After Another", an offbeat thriller set against a wild backdrop of radical violence, immigration raids and white supremacists, earned 14 BAFTA nods, including for the coveted best film award.
Vampire period music-infused horror film "Sinners" followed close behind with 13 and will also vie for best film, less than a week after it smashed the all-time Oscars record for nominations with 16 selections.
"One Battle After Another" enters the Oscars best film race in second place after it garnered 13 nods in the Academy shortlist for the March 15 awards to be held in Hollywood.
The BAFTAs, the highlight of the annual British film calendar, will be held in London on February 22, three weeks before the Oscars.
