These MTLers are nominated for Oscars

Jean-Marc Vallée’s Dallas Buyers Club

The Oscar nominees were announced this morning and there are a couple of local contenders. Jean-Marc Vallée’s (C.R.A.Z.Y.) Dallas Buyers Club raked in six nominations including Best Picture, Lead Actor, Supporting Actor, Editing, Make-up and Writing (Original Screenplay). Also of note is Will Butler (Arcade Fire) and Owen Pallett’s nomination for original music in Spike Jonze’s Her. The film’s soundtrack also includes two instrumental versions of songs from Arcade Fire’s Reflektor, namely “Porno” and “Supersymmetry.” The latter was written specifically for the film.
