AFT Awards: Best Original Score

This is the eleventh category of the 14th Annual AFT Film Awards to be announced. The AFT Awards are my own personal choices for the best in film of each year and the best in television of each season. The AFT Film Awards include the traditional Oscar categories and a number of additional specific honors. I’ve embedded a sample track from each finalist and nominee for your listening pleasure. Click here to see previous years of this category.

Finalists:
Weathering with You
Soul
News of the World
Mank
Minari


The winner:
Nomadland (Ludovico Einaudi) may not have had original music composed specifically for the film, but it was beautiful, haunting, and perfectly suited.

Other nominees:
Wendy (Dan Romer and Benh Zeitlin)
Tenet (Ludwig Göransson)
Ammonite (Dustin O'Halloran and Volker Bertelmann) 
Summerland (Volker Bertelmann)
