OUTSTANDING ORIGINAL SCORE

Daniel Hart for A Ghost Story
OnehtrixPoint Never for Good Time
Jonny Greenwood for Phantom Thread
Michael Giacchino for War for the Planet of the Apes
Carter Burwell for Wonderstruck

AND THE WINNER IS:


DANIEL HART FOR A GHOST STORY

This is the first win and second nomination for Daniel Hart. He was previously nominated for Ain't Them Bodies Saints (2013).

I saw the film about the half way point of the year and the score really made it's stamp in my mind that I never forgot Hart's work and even when other great scoring was done I always returned to this piece of music. A Ghost Story as a concept is pretty simple where we follow a ghost watching life continue on without him and because of this there are multiple scenes of silence where we only heart underscore of characters alone not fully aware of the ghost watching over them. Hart and Lowrey have now formed a tight bond as collaborators and I look forward to future collaborations between the pair.
