Eye on the BAFTA Awards

Title-film
The BAFTA Awards are being held this Sunday--for those who don't like acronyms, that's the British Academy of Film and Television Arts Awards. And why should we in America care? Well, aside from the fact it's hosted by the wonderfully clever Stephen Fry, it turns out a lot of BAFTA voters are also Academy voters. So this figures prominently into figuring out who the ever-changing front-runner for Best Actor is. Many think hometown fave Gary Oldman will score a win for "Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy," thus putting him firmly in the race. Or George Clooney could pick it up for "The Descendants," putting him back at the forefront. But if SAG Award winner Jean Dujardin takes it for "The Artist"...well, the race is probably over.

The show is airing on BBC1, but if you live in the States, you can catch highlights of the show here.

'Jersey Boys' Movie; Shatner Voyaging to Broadway

• John Logan, Tony-winning playwright, will adapt the Tony-winning Broadway musical "Jersey Boys" for the big screen. Has anyone even heard of this show? It's not like there are productions in New York, London, Las Vegas, Sydney, and two national tours. Read the story at Playbill.

• Emmy-winning actor and singer William Shatner will boldy go where he's gone before, albeit about 50 years ago. Next month, the star of "Star Trek" and "Boston Legal" will begin performing his two-hour one-man show on Broadway. Check it out at The New York Times. Someone please go dressed as a "Star Wars" Stormtrooper.
