Horner, 61, whose other credits include the scores for «Braveheart,» «Glory» and «Legends of the Fall,» has won two Oscars, in the Best Music, Original Song category and Best Music, Original
Dramatic Score categories, both for «Titanic.»
It's not as if Amistad was completely shut out, either, picking up nominations in Supporting Actor (Hopkins), Original
Dramatic Score (one of the few years where musicals and comedies were given a separate
category), Cinematography, and Costume Design.
