VARIETY OSCAR CONTENDERS
Wow, a real honor to be listed in this article for Best Score for Midnight Special. Thank you Kristopher Tarpley and Jenelle Riley!
“David Wingo’s collaborations with director Jeff Nichols have gone sorely underpraised over the years. What he worked up for “Midnight Special” was another subtle mixture, but one that nailed the requisite atmosphere. It was also a nice ode to the lo-fi genre films that served as an inspiration for the film, the kind of soundtrack you might expect to hear pulsing at a drive-in theater.”
