Good News! 12 Years A Slave Wins At The BAFTA'S

                                12 Years a Slave Night - H 2013
Hollywood turned out in force for this year’s EE British Academy Film Awards, which saw Steve McQueen’s 12 Years a Slave walk away with the night’s top prize for best film.
McQueen said after the film’s win that he was looking forward to the Oscars simply because it was a gathering and celebration of filmmaking “and these awards are the only chance I get to meet with filmmakers.” When accepting the night’s top award, McQueen noted that there are “21 million people in slavery now as we sit here. I just hope there will not be another 120 years of ambivalence that allows another filmmaker to make a film like this. I am so happy for them. THR.
