Ignored by Oscars?
Zero Oscar nominations...
I thought it would get one for Sound Editing at least and maybe for cinematography...
It is really a shame that it didn't get recognized for sound when so many critics who reviewed the movie made a point of praising it on this point. That normally just doesn't happen. And this movie depended on sound more than most because there is literally no musical soundtrack.
What they did with the visuals was also praiseworthy since so much was done with closeups and no master shots. But the achievement there was in the edit room. Aronofsky commented a few times that the lack of masters meant editing the film together was extremely hard.
Yes... The editing is noteworthy as well...
