Papal thriller "Conclave" and immigrant epic "The Brutalist" emerge neck-and-neck at the BAFTA awards with each film picking up four coveted gongs.

But veteran British actor Fiennes, who played a cardinal in "Conclave," once again saw his hopes of winning a BAFTA gong dashed, losing out to Brody in the race for the honor.
