    Eric Fellner, co-chairman of Working Title, which produced The Darkest Hour, also worked on two other nominated films, Baby Driver and Victoria & Abdul.

    He spoke to BBC Radio 5live.

    Quote Message

    The biggest studio movies used to be the ones that got the most recognition; now you’re seeing an awful lot of independent cinema… It’s films like Darkest Hour and Shape of Water or some of these independent movies that tend to be the most vocal at awards ceremonies…

    Oscars 2018: And they're off....

    British production company Magic Light has been nominated for best animated short film for its adaptation of Revolting Rhymes by Roald Dahl.

    Martin Pope told Radio 5live: "We're absolutely over the moon, it's thrilling...so exciting."

    Pope, who is also behind animations including The Gruffalo and Room on the Broom, is no stranger to the Oscars, having been nominated twice before.

    "It's amazing to see a film we've laboured over for many years recognised by the American academy - which is fantastic," he said.

    "It's a tough competition but, in the end, to be in amongst these other nominees is incredible and we're delighted to be there."

  6. Radiohead's Jonny Greenwood FINALLY joins Oscar nomineespublished at 15:36 Greenwich Mean Time 23 January 2018

    Jonny Greenwood

    Back in 2008, Jonny Greeenwood was disqualified from the Oscars' best soundtrack category.

    It turned out that the Radiohead star's stunning, spectral score for There Will Be Blood wasn't eligible, because the film contained 46 minutes of additional music that already existed.

    It didn't matter that this music, including pieces by Brahms and Estonian composer Arvo Part, wasn't on the official soundtrack CD. According to the Oscars, they were in the movie, and so Greenwood was booted out.

    Well, that oversight has been corrected in this year's nominations, with Greenwood's score for Phantom Thread officially making it into the shortlist.

    He's not the only indie hero to crop up in this year's nominees. Sufjan Stevens' beautiful, haunting love theme for Call Me By Your Name is up for best song.

    His competition in that category comes from hip-hop royalty Common and Mary J Blige - nominated for Marshall and Mudbound respectively.

    Common already has an Oscar to his name - for Glory, his song from the civil rights movie Selma - but he's not the only Oscar-winner in the category.

    Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, who won best original song for La La Land's City Of Stars last year, are nominated again for This Is Me from The Greatest Showman.

    And husband-and-wife team Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez, who wrote Frozen's Let It Go, are recognised for Remember Me, from Pixar animation Coco.

    Get Out received four nominations: best film, best director, best original screenplay, and best actor for Daniel Kaluuya.

    Jordan Peele, who directed the film, responded with a gif from the film showing Kaluuya - wide-eyed and tears running down his face.

    He then tweeted: "I just spoke to Daniel. You know when you’re on the phone trying to disguise the sound of an ugly cry? I failed at that."

    He then thanked the fans attributing the film's success to them...

    We recently had the honour of speaking to Greta Gerwig - nominated for best director for Lady Bird, only the fifth woman to be recognised in that category.

    Ahead of the Oscar nominations, she said: "I would be thrilled if - and I'm not just saying this - any women were nominated. And there's a slew of great female directors this year. There's a lot of women who contributed a lot to cinema this year, and I would like to see one of them on that list."

    Well, you are, Greta, you are! Congratulations!

    So, we've already seen one little hiccup: the full nomination list released early. Oh, and Tiffany Haddish tripping over her words announcing the nominations.

    C'mon guys, Missouri and Kaluuya ARE difficult words to pronounce.

    So how will the Academy avoid the fiasco from last year, which initially saw La La Land named as best film, instead of Moonlight?

    Well, you'll be glad to hear there are some new rules in town, including better co-ordination between the stage manager and the actors presenting the awards.

    A new person has also been added to the process to ensure tighter control measures.

    And the people responsible for 2017's gaffe will be nowhere near the ceremony.

    Read more about it in Newsround's handy guide.

    Roger Deakins has garnered his 14th nomination in the best cinematographer category for Blade Runner 2049. The British director of photography has been unlucky the other 13 times, but - you never know - perhaps 2018 will be his year..?

    ...since she's the first person EVER to be recognised in both the acting and music categories. The 47-year-old is nominated as the best supporting actress for her role as Florence Jackson in Mudbound and for the best original song, Mighty River, from the same film.

    Sure - no (more) drama.
