Why was Christopher Nolan from The Dark Knight

Not everyone agrees on the best degree of Batman, but people generally agree that the result of “The Dark Knight” is high in the list. If there is nothing else, it is impossible not to love these people The last 30 seconds of “I am not a hero”, “ Which is usually run in the movie whenever Batman does something specially great. Other scores in the “Dark Knight” trilogy are strong, but “Batman begins” feels unaccurable compared to its successor, and The result for “The Dark Knight Rieses” He feels as if he is trying in vain to restore the magic of the “dark knight”.

But Furas is intense and atmosphere at the atmosphere like music in the movie “The Dark Knight”, she did not win an Academy Award for Best original music, and was not nominated. like It was reported at that time“The music branch in the academy after noting that five people were attributed to composing the result. Although no one seems to know exactly the number of people allowed to participate, this was too much.”

Although Hans Zimmer and James Newton Howard are the main names associated with the result, the music editor Alex Gibson, music designer Mel Weisson and Loren Pal composer. It seems that the three of them “signed a written testimony stating that Zimer and Huard are the main composers at work,” but this was not enough to change the academy. It ended with “The Dark Knight” to eight Oscars and two of them won, but Oscar for the best original degree ended up going to Ar Rahman for “Slumdog Millionaire”. Howard cannot be very upset, at least; In the same year, he was also nominated for a “challenge” degree.

The reason behind the exclusion of “The Dark Knight” in the music category feels some benign, because it is not like the soundtrack of films really consists of a person or two people only in any case. For example, Hans Zimmer talked about how he works with a full team of people for each movie. “I never hide my collaborators.” Explanation in the 2013 interview“But as the composer, I am the main architect. This means that I am responsible for the initial idea, style, topics, performance, and devices. The big idea. But in a period of two hours, especially the way I work, you need a little help.”

He explained how his soundtrack composes with the help of “programmers, booms, assistants and additional composers … in the room with the director, editor and music editor, they become part of the process.” Zimmer talked about how to try to credit people as they work as possible, but in the end it is not practical for the album to have many names in the foreground and the center: “Sometimes it’s not possible.” Additional credit “I definitely mean that someone in another section needs to give up its balance.”

On the bright side, it is hardly similar to Zimmer or Howard unprecedented. Zimmer was nominated for an Academy Award 12 times throughout his career and won twice, the last of which was his result in the first movie “Dune” in 2022. The result of the second movie “Dune” was not very lucky.Meanwhile, Howard was nominated for an Academy Award nine times, although he has not yet won. Perhaps they did not get a chance for “The Dark Knight”, but at least the Academy allowed them more opportunities on the road.
