Les Misérables Earns Four BAFTA Awards Including a Win for Anne Hathaway

The Les Misérables film didn’t exactly sweep the British Academy of Film and Television Arts Awards on Feburary 10, but it did pick up a few trophies, including a Best Supporting Actress win for Anne Hathaway. The movie musical, directed by Tom Hooper, also took home awards for Best Make-Up and Hair, Best Production Design and Best Sound.

Argo took the top prize for Best Film, and Amour star Emmanuelle Riva earned the trophy for Best Actress, beating out Zero Dark Thirty’s Jessica Chastain. Chastain ended her run in The Heiress on Broadway a day early to attend the awards. The Best Actor trophy went to Lincoln's Daniel Day Lewis, leaving Les Miz star Hugh Jackman going home empty-handed. 

In addition to Les Miz, Hathaway’s film and TV credits include Rachel Getting Married, The Dark Knight Rises, The Devil Wears Prada, Becoming Jane, Brokeback Mountain and The Princess Diaries.
