It takes literally hundreds of people to make a successful film, even if the only things you notice are one or two actors. The costumer and stylist make us believe that the actor is in a certain time period, a certain socioeconomic class or perhaps even a different species.
COSTUME DESIGN NOMINEES
"Anna Karenina" - Jaqueline Durran
"Les Miserables" - Paco Delgado
"Lincoln" - Joanna Johnston
"Mirror Mirror" - Eiko Ishioka
"Snow White and the Huntsman" - Colleen Atwood
Each film is exquisitely and intricately adorned. However, the sheer smorgasbord of delicacies that were draped upon Ms. Knightly were a costuming dream.
My Favorite -"Anna Karenina"
My Oscar Prdiction - "Anna Karenina"
MAKEUP AND HAIRSTYLING NOMINEES
"Hitchcock" - Howard Berger, Peter Montagna and Martin Samuel
"The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" - Peter Swords King, Rick Findlater and Tami Lane
"Les Miserables" - Lisa Westscott and Julie Darnell
This is one of those categories that if they were separate, my vote would be different. Hitchcock was a marvel of makeup for Anthony Hopkins, Les Miserables was a wonder of hairstyles and lean sick faces. However, its hard for me to choose against Hobbits and Dwarves in the make up department.
My Favorite - "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey"
My Oscar Prediction - "Les Miserables"
