100 BAFTA Moments - Salvatore Cascio Wins the Supporting Actor Award

4 December 2014

66 days to go - 11 year old Salvatore Cascio wins for his performance in Cinema Paradiso 

In 1991, Salvatore Cascio won the Supporting Actor award for his performance in Cinema Paradiso (1988). At the tender age of 11, Cascio is one of the youngest BAFTA winners ever. 

However, he isn't the youngest overall. That title goes to Cherry Campbell, who recently won the Performer award at the British Academy Children's Awards.  At just nine years old, she is the youngest BAFTA recipient ever!
