Best Original Score: The Grand Budapest Hotel vs. The Theory of Everything
In any other year, Alexandre Desplat’s terrific work in The Grand Budapest Hotel would be the frontrunner. However, Desplat’s double nomination (he is also up for The Imitation Game) means that some voters could split their support, leaving room for Golden Globe winner Jóhann Jóhannsson to potentially upset.
Jóhannsson is a first-time nominee, while Desplat earned his seventh and eight nominations this year. Desplat has also never won and is well overdue.
