“The efforts for peace.” What a way to end his winning speech. Way to go Chris Nolan 💚

Christopher Nolan sweeping the season. I love this for him. It’s about damn time. I’m so glad it’s for Oppenheimer because the film just blew me away. It’s a masterpiece! 👏 👏

He won his 1st Golden Globe, First Critics Choice, First DGA and now his BAFTA, I cant wait to see him win his first Oscar. Its still crazy to me that before Oppie he had not won any of these.

Christopher nolan making a joke is like that introverted friend cracking one up

The Oscar awaits for Nolan, so happy for this moment. He deserved it for a very long time, glad that Oppenheimer was the great movie that earned him the award

I will cry when he gets his first Oscar (Hopefully he gets 2 trophies that night), what a great director and filmmaker.

When he gets his first Oscar, you guys will hear me screaming the house down with joy, even if you are in another country!

Watched it last night on Peacock. Masterful work from every department. A perfect film. And an important one.

Congrats Christopher. Well deserved. UCL alumnus!

I feel like for the first time in 25 or so years the award season is getting it right. Grats Nolan!

I have been watching Chris' back catalogue - the most haunting, to me personally, Dunkirk, the most satisfying The Batman Trilogy - closest we'll ever come the Frank Miller's vision/version
