batmanand 0 Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 More awards potential. The BAFTAs (British film awards) have just announced their nominees. Here's the relevant one:The Anthony Asquith Award for achievement in film musicBrokeback Mountain - Gustavo SantaolallaThe Constant Gardener - Alberto IglesiasMemoirs of a Geisha - John WilliamsMrs Henderson Presents - George FentonWalk The Line - T Bone BurnettThis looks like a promisingly rubbish list, apart from good ol' Johnny. Hence I have a good feeling about this.Could this be a JW sweep year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deimos 0 Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Alberto Iglesias is a famous Spanish film scores composer. Lately he has been writing for Almodovar. In fact I recall seeing his name on the list of that world soundtrack awards last year, with Bad Education. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Breathmask 480 Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Walk the Line is a movie about music, meaning the nomination may not have been received purely on the score's merits (see the Fame debacle). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morlock 9 Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 I am almost certain he is not, though I have been wrong before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Penna 2,082 Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 The BAFTAs suck. Â Roll on Oscar night.The feeling is mutual Weird I know coming from a Brit, but I'm always apprehensive at finding their score nominations. I mean last year the Motorcycle Diaries won, and this year I only recognise JW and George Fenton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incanus 5,519 Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 I am happy Williams got nominated and I have to admit that besides him I only know George Fenton from that list of nominees. I think Williams deserves this award as well (he should get the Oscar) but it might be that one of these unfamiliar composer's will snatch it. BAFTA awards seem to go to the most unlikely person imaginable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Skywalker 1,284 Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 is antonio iglesias related to enrique iglesias? thought i'd pop that in...No.But Julio Iglesias is the father of Enrique.But this must be common knowledge... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
