The When Will They Win? Thread

[malcolm1980]

I thought this would be a great idea for a thread. So I thought I'd make a thread for people who currently have the most nominations in most categories without a win BUT who are still alive and are still working so we can speculate and monitor when they'll finally win their Oscar.

BEST PICTURE: Kathleen Kennedy - 8 nominations (won the Thalberg)
BEST DIRECTOR: Peter Weir - 4 nominations* (hasn't made a film in 10 years but I don't think he officially retired, correct me if I'm wrong.)
BEST ACTING (male): (three-way tie) Ed Harris, Willem Dafoe and Bradley Cooper - 4 nominations. (Cooper has additional producing and writing nominations also without wins.)
BEST ACTING (female): Glenn Close - 8 nominations
BEST SCREENPLAY (both Original & Adapted): (tie) Mike Leigh and Paul Thomas Anderson - 5 nominations.
BEST CINEMATOGRAPHY: (tie) Caleb Deschanel and Bruno Delbonnel - 6 nominations.
BEST FILM EDITING: (tie) Hank Corwin and Jay Cassidy - 3 nominations
BEST PRODUCTION DESIGN: (tie) Sarah Greenwood and Nathan Crowley - 6 nominations
BEST COSTUME DESIGN: Jacqueline West - 4 nominations
BEST SONG: Diane Warren - 13 nominations
BEST SCORE: Thomas Newman - 14 nominations
BEST SOUND: Greg P. Russell - 16 nominations
BEST VISUAL EFFECTS: Dan Sudick - 12 nominations
BEST MAKEUP & HAIRSTYLING: Edouard F. Henriques, Love Larson, and Eva von Bahr - 3 nominations
BEST INTERNATIONAL FEATURE: Israel - 10 nominations
BEST ANIMATED FEATURE: (five-way tie) Ron Clements, Travis Knight, Dean DeBlois, Chris Sanders and Tomm Moore - 3 nominations
BEST DOCUMENTARY FEATURE: Wim Wenders - 3 nominations.

So who among them will be the first to win?

Definitely cool, thanks!

Quote:BEST SCORE: Thomas Newman - 14 nominations

I've somehow missed that he's never won.

Glenn would have probably won this year had Paramount not stalled Sunset Boulevard when it was ready to go into production the summer of 2020. Anyway. I have to say her. For my (precarious) sanity.

Thomas Newman not having won yet is fucking ridiculous.
