The 2024 BAFTA Awards ceremony, held at the emblematic Royal Festival Hall in London, has brought together the best of the film industry, both British and international, on a night in which Oppenheimer has swept the main categories of these prestigious awards .
Among the highlights of the night, Emma Stone won the Best Actress award for her role in the film Poor Creatures. The rivalry in this category was intense, but Stone has managed to prevail thanks to her exceptional performance as a revived young woman who has to start from scratch in a time with little equality.
The awarding of the award to Stone was one of the highlights of the ceremony, especially due to the interaction between her and Ryan Gosling, with whom she shared the lead role in the award-winning La La Land.
Upon being announced as the winner, Gosling was one of the first to stand up and applaud. Furthermore, in a gesture that makes clear all the affection they have for each other, the actor winked at Stone when she was heading to the stage to collect the award. This moment has driven social media crazy and has quickly gone viral.
Margot Robbie also appears in the same image, who was also nominated for best leading actress for Barbie - she is not nominated at the Oscars -. Thus, the Australian has witnessed firsthand how her co-star dedicates a moment of affection to Stone while she digests her defeat with a smile.
Once on stage, the actress took advantage of her moment not only to thank her for the recognition, but also to pay an emotional tribute to Krista, her mother. In this way, Stone expressed how her mother supported her in the possibility of achieving her dreams and devoting herself to acting: "she made me believe in the crazy idea that I could do something like that."
