There are a couple of awards given to movie crews for work
done to make the cast and set transformational, beautiful, or grotesque. There
are three films nominated for Makeup and Hairstyling: Hitchcock, The Hobbit: An
Unexpected Journey, and Les Misérables. I believe The Hobbit will win this
category as the makeup artists had to do more to the actors to make them look
like halflings. This process likely took great amounts of time. There are more
films listed as nominees under the category of Costume Design: Anna Karenina, Les Misérables, Lincoln, Mirror Mirror, and Snow
White and the Huntsman. These movies are all deserving of the Oscar in that the
costuming in each shows a painstaking attention to detail, but I believe Anna
Karenina should win the statuette. Anna Karenina has the most elaborate of the
costumes and seemingly has more frequent costume changes and therefore more
costumes were selected for its purpose.
