Academy Award Fraud

Isn't it common practice for composers to recycle their scores?

In fact, one of the cues on the Babel soundtrack also appears on The Insider soundtrack - the name isn't even changed.

I agree that it's BS, but it's hardly a surprise.

Are the rules for score qualification posted anywhere?

Never mind, found the rules myself.

This guy says part of the score was also reused from his Oscar-winning score last year for Brokeback Mountain.
