Why was Antonio Sanchez' Birdman score disqualified for an Oscar?
Quoted post

#152014-12-28 21:43This is one of the most impressive and innovative scores in a film to date. The interpretation of emotion on a drum set at this depth only demonstrated how deeply connected the composer was with the film, and the drumming was pure genius. Limiting a film score to conventional composition/orchestration format should not be part of the criteria for consideration in the Oscars. Daring to break the rules for the sake of creativity only demonstrated the uniqueness of the film and an advancement in film production as a whole. |

#21 Re:2014-12-28 23:43:08Thanks so much for the comment and your signature! One small correction: Fortunately, eligibility for an Oscar for a film score is not limited to conventional orchestral content. What makes the Academy excuse so infuriating is that there is no such criteria to eliminate Antonio's score and they did it anyway. |
