80th Oscars: the winners
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences held the 80th Oscars ceremony last night (long after my bedtime).
The winners for Best Makeup were:
La Môme / La Vie en Rose
Didier Lavergne and Jan Archibald.
Great result; as I said in an earlier posting, I was cheering for La Môme — and for Marion Cotillard who inhabited Piaf’s personna. It’s just a shame that the nomination rules did not allow the work of David White and Altered States FX on Marion’s prosthetics to be recognised as well. I’d have voted for the other acting award winners too, and the Best Picture and Best Director winners. I’m glad Juno got something too — and justifiably well done at the Spirit Awards.
The full list of winners and nominees is on the Oscars website.
