Golden Globe Nominees: Best Original Score

The nominees:
ATONEMENT
EASTERN PROMISES
GRACE IS GONE
INTO THE WILD
THE KITE RUNNER

My predictions: 2/5, choosing "Jesse James", "Ratatouille" and "There Will Be Blood" over "Eastern Promises", "Grace is Gone", and "The Kite Runner".

I totally did not see "Eastern Promises" coming even though it got nominated for best score from other groups. "Grace is Gone" is nothing special, but voters wanted to recognize Clint Eastwood somehow. "Into the Wild" was a huge success in the music categories despite not getting any other nominations.

Who will win? This should be Atonement for sure, but this category is so unpredictable. I think The Kite Runner has the best shot at an upset.

  1. i think you need to rewatch Eastern Promises. I just did, and the score really makes that film. I remember it from the beginning, but man its just so great. Wtf is up with Grace is gone, i can't remember any music from that film??!!
