BAFTA Nominations: Music
The British Academy Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) Award nominations for Music are:
The CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON
* Alexandre Desplat
The DARK KNIGHT
* Hans Zimmer
* James Newton Howard
MAMMA MIA!
* Benny Andersson
* Björn Ulvaeus
SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE
* A. R. Rahman
WALL-E
* Thomas Newman
For those that know me, there will be no surprise that I am not cheering for Mamma Mia!. The music is entertaining, or it was back in the day and the film and stage production were a huge hit in the UK. However, as fun as it might be, it doesn't fit in the category for best film music. Dark Knight is another film that I feel ought to be given the pass in terms of music. I hope to see Benjamin Button this next weekend and will probably take in both Wall-E and Slumdog again just to refresh myself with the music.
