“Conclave” and “Emilia Pérez” lead this year’s BAFTA Film Awards nominations, heading up a diverse mix of talent and titles in a competition where, for the first time in years, there’s no clear favorite in any of the major categories.

Papal thriller “Conclave” leads the race for the British Academy Film Awards, with nominations in 12 categories, just ahead of the genre-busting musical “Emilia Perez" with 11.

Saoirse Ronan and Hugh Grant make surprise appearances on the shortlist, ahead of the awards ceremony next month.
