The Hollywood Film Academy today reveals the final nominations for this year’s ceremony, in which the composer Alberto Iglesias can also surprise with the BSO of ‘Madres paralleles’, the film by Pedro Almodóvar
The die is cast. In a few minutes we will know if ‘The Good Boss’, the latest film by Fernando León de Aranoa, chosen to represent Spain at the 94th edition of the Hollywood Oscars in the category of best international film, is still in the race to win the precious statuette. And it is that starting at 2:18 p.m., the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences in Hollywood reveals the final nominations for the ceremony that will take place on March 27.
This is the second time that the Film Academy has chosen a film by the filmmaker from Madrid to compete in the Hollywood awards. The first and only time that a film by León de Aranoa had been selected for the Oscars was with ‘Mondays in the Sun’, a work from almost 20 years ago also starring Bardem.
Spanish cinema has also managed to place itself among the first shortlisted for the original music category for the soundtrack of ‘Madres paralleles’, Pedro Almodóvar’s latest film, directed by composer Alberto Iglesias. The soundtrack by the San Sebastian composer was recently nominated for a Golden Globe, which it ultimately failed to win.
