How can it be possible as "The Artist" by L. Bource got a temp track from "Vertigo" and won an Academy Award ???
Very simple - one track as opposed to an original score with original music that ran throughout the entire film - in other words, the Vertigo track did not detract one iota from the original and very long score. The Richter piece is really ALL that anyone remembers from Arrival - whole different ball of potatoes.
And as I said in the OTHER thread about this topic: Blame the director, producer, studio - shame on them all for not trusting the composer and for thinking they're better by using some existing piece of music that others have already used because they are all cowards, basically. Hitchcock didn't temp Vertigo or Psycho or any of the Herrmann films. He TRUSTED his composer and got original, wonderful scores.

Yeah, in a brave new world, that'd be great.
There are quite a few composers (Jerry Goldsmith was among them) who hated temp tracks, and yeah, we would have a lot more original and inspired film music if producers and directors and studio managers wouldn't always fall in love with their temp track selections.
