The 43rd British Academy Film Awards, more commonly known as the BAFTAs, took place on 11 March 1990 at the SEC Centre in Glasgow, Scotland, honouring the best national and foreign films of 1989. Presented by the British Academy of Film and Television Arts, accolades were handed out for the best feature-length film and documentaries of any nationality that were screened at British cinemas in 1989.

Peter Weir's Dead Poets Society won the award for Best Film. Kenneth Branagh and Pauline Collins took home Best Actor and Actress, whilst Ray McAnally and Michelle Pfeiffer won in the supporting categories.

The ceremony was hosted by Magnus Magnusson and his daughter Sally Magnusson. Originally from Iceland, Magnusson was the first non-British host of the awards.
