The 73rd British Academy Film Awards took place in the UK this weekend. The best performances and movies were nominated at the BAFTA. While all eyes were on who will take home a BAFTA award this year and find a spot on the BAFTA 2020 winners' list, an unfortunate red carpet moment caught everyone's eye. Photos from the red carpet reveal The Irishman star Al Pacino tripped and fell on moments before he could pose for the cameras at the event. 

The 79-year-old actor was sporting an all-black suit with a tint of color. He completed the look with a pair of sunglasses. The actor was seen making his way into the event when he lost balance and tripped. He was pictured holding on to the people around him as he tried to get back on his feet. Pacino was accompanied by his girlfriend Meital Dohan. She quickly rushed to his side and helped him to retain his balance. Fortunately, Pacino suffered no injuries.
