Sounds brilliant and very different for Burton.
That’s fantastic news. Big eyes has been dead for too long now and I always somehow hoped that Burton would step in in the end. Alexander and Karasweski are among the best screenwriters in Hollywood, we need more of their work on screen. And Waltz…what a bonus!
According to imdb (for what it’s worth), the film is already in post. I’m pretty sure it will be presented at Cannes (in competition or not).
If the movie is as good as it reads, it’ll probably be the best shots Burton and Elfman have at Oscars. Harvey Weinstein can get even mediocre/decent movies Best Picture nominations these days.
Recording today, Air Studios again.
Keith_Ames – Thanks to all at Air Studios, esp the superb musicians, for a productive pm in Lyndhurst Hall with Tim Burton recording Big Eyes soundtrack.
I’m quite positive it won’t be selected after all…because it didn’t.
But it looks like it will go for the award seasons with a release around the end of the year.
Deadline did a 2015 Oscar prediction thingy a while back and said Big Eyes is for fall, and that Adams is apparently terrific.
The film will be released on Christmas Day this year:

Oscar nomination #5 is coming.
I’m a bit bummed to see that there’s an additional composer on the IMDB page though.
I think that it will be more and more frequent…Zimmer’s way of working is so popular nowadays, and allows such a quick work if necessary, that studios are getting used to it, and give shorter and shorter delays to any composer…
Yeah, I’m kinda disappointed myself, especially since it’s supposed to be a “smaller” film and that Elfman don’t have much film projects coming on. I’m also surprised that the score is apparently already recorded while we are still more than 6 months away from the release date…
I dunno, lalaland as much as said they’re releasing Midnight Run last year. Elfman’s one of their favorites so I’m sure something is coming.
I’m not sure there is so much unreleased music on this one, I don’t remember the movie as having a lot of score, and the original album is alreaddy quite long. Still, such a LaLaLand release would make this score easily available again – that’s alreaddy a good thing.
It’s a shame that there are rights problems with Dolores Claiborne, it would really be my Grail.There was a screening last night and AwardsDaily tweeted that from what they’ve heard Adams, Waltz and Elfman have ‘assured’ nominations this year. A few people on forums who have claimed to seen it have singled Elfman’s score put positively too.
First review (kinda) has a lot of praise for Elfman.
