"That’s definitely overwhelming. But definitely, the surprise is the number of nominations, a wonderful surprise.” he added.

You know, we could feel that the film was being well received, and Edward and I, we had been at quite a few screenings and Q&As, and we could see that the film found an audience and that the reception was very good, but I would’ve never imagined that we would end up with this number of nominations at the Academy Awards. Never.”
