The Power Of The Dog won top honours at the Bafta film awards, where sci-fi blockbuster Dune also collected a string of gongs. Will Smith and Joanna Scanlan were named winners of the top acting prizes, while No Time To Die actress Lashana Lynch was crowned EE rising star.

Belfast, Sir Kenneth Branagh's autobiographical film about his childhood during the Troubles, won outstanding British film. The star-studded ceremony at the Royal Albert Hall was hosted by Pitch Perfect actress Rebel Wilson, who made risque jokes about the Duke of York, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, the gender pay gap, her flop film Cats and her recent weight loss. She also gave the middle finger to Russian leader Vladimir Putin.

The Power Of The Dog, Jane Campion's brooding western, was named best film at the ceremony, while Campion won best director. She was absent from the proceedings, with the best film prize collected by producer Tanya Seghatchian, who said: "Our only regret is the great Jane cannot be standing here.

"Jane, we are all standing on your shoulders tonight, you are a visionary whose trail has blazed through the last 30 years of cinema."

Smith, who also missed the ceremony, was lauded for his role as Richard Williams, the father of tennis superstars Venus and Serena Williams, in King Richard, while Scanlan was celebrated for her leading actress role in After Love.

Oscar frontrunners Troy Kotsur and Ariana DeBose scooped prizes in the supporting categories at the ceremony. Deaf star Kotsur, who was named best supporting actor for family drama Coda, spoke on stage with his interpreter and made a joke pitch for his next role.

DeBose picked up the supporting actress prize for her turn as Anita in the remake of West Side Story while Lynch collected the EE rising star award, the only Bafta prize voted for by the public, from last year's winner Bukky Bakray.
