John Carney’s Sing Street has been tipped for an Oscar nomination this year.
The film set in 1980s Ireland has been a roaring success not only in Ireland winning awards at the IFTAs, but abroad as well having won awards internationally.
“The company just re-released the movie in hopes of reviving its lacklustre box office, so maybe there will also be a push come Oscar and Globe time,” Deadline’s Awards Editor Pete Hammond wrote.
The Hollywood insider website has compiled a list of possible Oscar nominees and admitted that it deserves more recognition.
“I loved Weinsten Company’s Irish-based Sing Street from director John Carney whose previous films Once and Begin Again both gained traction in the song category,” Pete revealed.
“It deserves better than it got.”
