Acceptance speech by Gravity Director Alfonso Cuarón and Producer David Heyman, winners of the Outstanding British Film category at the EE Britsh Academy Film Awards in 2014.

Posted: 16 Feb 2014

DAVID HEYMAN: Thank you. Excuse me, I have a bit of a cold but this sure as hell is going to make it better. First, thank you BAFTA. This is beyond belief. Best of all, it recognises everybody who is involved with the film. We have had the most incredible crew on this film. Unbelievable. Framestore and the team who created the visual effects, incomparable.

Of course, the film would mean absolutely nothing without our cast and the heart of the film, George Clooney and of course, as I said, the heart of the film, Sandra Bullock.

Thanks to Warner Brothers, because you have gotten us here in a major way. Sue Kroll, amazing. And of course as my fellow producer he probably wouldn’t say it himself, but we would not be here without our wonderful director, Mr Alfonso Cuarón.

ALFONSO CUARÓN: Thank you.

DAVID HEYMAN: Whoops, thank you Rose.
