The only Icelander to earn an Oscar, Guđnadóttir discusses how she chooses projects, from 'Joker' to 'Tár,' & why this score was so fun.
The Big Picture Director and star Kenneth Branagh is back for another Agatha Christie mystery in A Haunting in Venice, throwing a supernatural spin on the starry whodunit. In order to capture the eerie atmosphere of a haunted Italian palazzo, Branagh enlisted the craft of Academy Award-winning composer Hildur Guđnadóttir, who spoke with Collider’s Steve Weintraub about her process and how it compared to her work on the Joaquin Phoenix-led Joker, which earned her Iceland’s first-ever Oscar.
COLLIDER: You've done a lot of great music. If someone has never heard anything you've done, what is the first thing you'd like them to listen to and why? GUĐNADÓTTIR: [Laughs] That's a good question. Well, I stopped drinking, funnily enough, a couple of years before the Oscars, so I was sober during the Oscars and have been ever since. So, no, I have not paid for my own drink because I haven't been drinking.GUĐNADÓTTIR: No, it's wonderful in Iceland because we're such a tiny culture. We're such a tiny population. Of course, when someone has success outside of Iceland it's so beautiful.
Then, of course, it's a question of whether or not I feel like I can bring anything of value or interest to the story or the project because I need to feel that my contribution is bringing something interesting or elevating to the project.
