No Oscar for 'Aviator' score

23 January 2005 - 10:59 AM

Howard Shore's score for The Aviator will not be eligible for an Oscar, Daily Variety said Thursday.

The paper said the score, which has a won Golden Globe and been nominated for a British Academy of Films and Television Arts award, is one of several that have been disqualified for Oscar consideration by the academy's music branch executive committee. The academy has tougher restrictions on disqualification than other organizations that hand out movie awards.

The academy recently sent out a list of 81 eligible scores to voting members of the music branch. Besides The Aviator, the list also excluded Craig Armstrong's score for Ray, Harry Gregson-Williams' music for Shrek 2, James Newton Howard's music for Collateral and director Clint Eastwood's score for Million Dollar Baby.

Academy officials would not comment on the record, but sources told Variety Shore's music was disqualified under a rule prohibiting scores diluted by the use of tracked or pre-existing music. Shore's music in The Aviator accounts for no more than one-third of all the music in the film.

Eastwood's score failed to qualify because paperwork was submitted too late.
