“OYAHYTT” from “Sorry to Bother You”“Shallow” from “A Star Is Born”“Suspirium” from “Suspiria”“The Big Unknown” from “Widows”Though as many as two songs can be nominated from a single film, many music-driven movies only submit one, so as not to split votes. That’s an approach that appeared to work for “Shallow,” from “A Star is Born,” and “All the Stars,” from “Black Panther,” but it’s worth noting that “Mary Poppins Returns” submitted two songs and, at least at this point, got both of them in. I’m tickled, too, that both the Coup and Thom Yorke made the shortlist for contributions to “Sorry to Bother You” and “Suspiria,” respectively. Should Yorke be nominated, he’ll follow in the footsteps of his Radiohead bandmate Jonny Greenwood, nominated last year for composing the score for “Phantom Thread.”Original Score“Annihilation”“Avengers: Infinity War”“The Ballad of Buster Scruggs”“Black Panther”“BlacKkKlansman”“Crazy Rich Asians”“The Death of Stalin”“Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald”“First Man”“If Beale Street Could Talk”“Isle of Dogs”“Mary Poppins Returns”“A Quiet Place”“Ready Player One”“Vice”Though I’m still steamed that Nicholas Britell’s gorgeous score for “If Beale Street Could Talk” failed to snag a Golden Globe nomination, at least the Academy hasn’t yet made the same mistake: It’s represented on the short list, alongside scores from “Black Panther” and “First Man.”Among the other shortlists announced on Monday were the following:Documentary Short Subject“Black Sheep”“End Game”“Lifeboat”“Los Comandos”“My Dead Dad’s Porno Tapes”“A Night at the Garden”
