Precursor: 29th Cinema Audio Society Nominations (2021)
All five of these nominees are on the Academy’s shortlist, so we don’t get any real peak into what could happen other than the inclusion of No Time to Die over The Matrix Resurrections and The Power of the Dog over Belfast. Considering the Jane Campion’s film is a relatively quiet one that doesn’t have…

Precursor: 36th Society of Cinematographers Nominations (2021)
Two of the year’s numerous black-and-white films made the list as did three expected color features. Belfast was the title I was least sure would be included, but the film managed to eke out a nomination over popular Janusz Kaminski for West Side Story. Cyrano, The Green Knight, Licorice Pizza, and Passing were most injured…

Precursor: 69th Motion Picture Sound Editors Nominations (2021)
With Sound Editing now a part of the Sound award, we look to these for signs of weakness rather than a definitive precursor since the Sound Mixing category is the more familiar component of the new category. Of the Sound shortlisted films, it’s rather surprising that three of the four top nominees are there, but…

Precursor: 26th Art Directors Guild Nominations (2021)
Major contenders missing from this list include three really big ones: Cyrano, Belfast, and House of Gucci as well as three minor ones: The Last Duel, Last Night in Soho, and The Power of the Dog. This will definitely help the campaigns for The French Dispatch, Licorice Pizza, and The Green Knight. The Nominations Best…
