Precursor: 62nd Sound Editors Guild Nominations (2014)

The Sound Editors have spoken and we have heard them. Birdman is doing incredibly well with this guild, topping every other film with three nominations, getting into both the Sound Effects and Dialogue categories. Only Unbroken was able to duplicate that feat. It’s quite possible that both films (which also showed up with the Cinema Audio Society are going to get Oscar noms as a result. The most interesting selection of the day was Still Alice, a film that has only been talked about as a film to get Julianne Moore her first Oscar, has now been nominated for a different guild. That won’t mean much to anyone since it’s not getting Oscar nominated in Sound Editing, but it’s an interesting little tidbit either way.
