Paul Thomas Anderson's politically charged action thriller One Battle After Another leads the race for the British Academy Film Awards, securing 14 nominations Tuesday including acting nods for five of its cast. Ryan Coogler's blues-steeped vampire epic Sinners is close behind with 13 nominations for Britain's equivalent of the Oscars, while Chloe Zhao's Shakespearean family tragedy Hamnet and Josh Safdie's ping-pong odyssey Marty Supreme have 11 apiece.
The Bafta nominations list underscores the enormous award-season love being felt for Ryan Coogler's Sinners, his subversive vampire riff on America's black experience though it isn't making history in quite the same way as it is at the Oscars, having 13 Bafta nominations, one behind Paul Thomas Anderson's league-leader One Battle After Another with 14.
