Episode #72
Show Notes
Time again for our annual Academy Award episode, appreciating the five films nominated in the Best Original Score category, and the competitors for movies released in 2024 are an inventive and varied lot. The five are The Brutalist, Emilia Pérez, Conclave, The Wild Robot, and of course the Broadway-inflected stylings of Wicked. That’s a crazy range of moods and approaches—and we include one zany curveball in the form of an obscure Euro-disco hit from one of the Best Picture nominees.
