Welcome to the 88th Academy Awards from the Dolby Theater in Hollywood, where the film industry’s best and whitest gather for the annual celebration of motion picture achievements. It’s been a tight race this year, with several contests still too close to call.
The Revenant is the favourite to win best picture heading into the ceremony, with 12 nominations, however don’t be surprised if Mad Max: Fury Road, The Big Short, or Spotlight spring a surprise.
The backdrop to this evening’s proceedings – along with the foreground and everything above it, below it, to the left and to the right of it – has been dominated by the #OscarsSoWhite outrage, which erupted back in January when, for the second year in a row, all 20 acting nominees were white.
The ensuing maelstrom triggered jerky knees in the Academy, which has moved to alter its composition and the way it does business going forward.
Time will tell. Meanwhile...

Oscar Week concluded on Saturday with the final event – the Makeup and Hairstyling symposium.
The Academy celebrated the artists nominated for the Makeup and Hairstyling award in the 10th annual event spotlighting this category, which celebrated its 35th anniversary this year.
The makeup artists and hairstylists nominated for Mad Max: Fury Road, The 100-year-old-man Who Climbed Out The Window And Disappeared and The Revenant joined makeup artist and former Academy governor Leonard Engelman to discuss their work on the three films, and presented photographs and displays to demonstrate their craft.
Watch the entire event below.

“Mad Max: Fury Road” cemented it’s front-runner status for Best Makeup & Hairstyling at the Oscars with two wins from the guild last week. These kudos snubbed the other two Oscar nominees: “The Revenant” and “The 100-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out a Window and Disappeared.” Last year the guild, which took a ten-year hiatus between 2003-2013, gave two prizes to the eventual Oscar winner, “The Grand Budapest Hotel.” This year is unique in that all of the teams are first-time nominees. Let’s take a closer look at the category to see who has the best chance at winning. -Break- Subscribe to Gold Derby Breaking News Alerts & Experts’ Latest Oscar Predictions “Mad Max: Fury Road": Lesley Vanderwalt, Elka Wardega, Damian Martin This trio created the kind of wild, extravagant makeup that has been the cornerstone of this category since it was introduced in 1981.

For costume designer Jenny Beavan and the makeup & hairstyling team of Lesley Vanderwalt, Elka Wardega, and Damian Martin, the journey of "Mad Max: Fury Road" was all about figuring out a day in the life of the wasteland survivors: Max (Tom Hardy), Furiosa (Charlize Theron), Immortan Joe (Hugh Keays-Byrne) and his wives, and the War Boys. Beavan looked at George Miller's graphic novel and early concepts, which had an S&M look, and made the costume design more masculine. She also found inspiration in Namibia, where they shot Miller's post-apocalyptic return. The African ethos of recycling and re-purposing became important to the aesthetic, where dressing for necessity took precedence. And Miller stressed finding beauty in the ordinary objects that get thrown away.

Kieran, here. The three films nominated for Best Makeup and Hairstyling at the Oscars this are an interesting bunch. The Academy had a lot of options to choose from and it almost feels miraculous that they didn’t default nominate things like The Danish Girl or Black Mass, which (questions of merit aside) are practically begging the viewer to notice the makeup work in both cases. Even if they’re not yours, it’s a respectable crop of nominees. An aside: if we’re going to get five original song nominees every year no matter what, why only three nominees in this category? Curious…

Previous Work: A lot of features with both George Miller and Baz Luhrmann, but as supervisors (makeup supervisors don’t get nominated, so they weren’t cited when Moulin Rouge! was nominated in 2001)

What a lovely day to win an Oscar! The Academy Awards announced their nominees this morning, and Mad Max: Fury Road came in second for most nominations behind The Revenant. It’s a nice change from the typical epic dramas that always get nominated every year, and now the road to the Oscars will be a furious one. In fact, it’s the first action movie to ever be nominated for Best Picture. I only hope if George Miller wins Best Director, he’ll spray his teeth silver up on stage while accepting the award. Here are the nominations Mad Max has received:
Best Picture Best Director (George Miller) Best Film Editing (Margaret Sixel) Best Cinematography (John Seale) Best Costume Design (Jenny Beavan) Best Makeup and Hairstyling (Lesley Vanderwalt, Elka Wardega and Damian Martin) Best Production Design (Colin Gibson, Lisa Thompson) Best Sound Editing (Mark Mangini and David White) Best Sound Mixing (Chris Jenkins,...

We.ve now all had a few hours to digest the 88th Academy Award nominations, and probably the most pleasantly surprising recognition came in the shape of the 10 nominations for Mad Max: Fury Road. Rather than just being in the below-the-lines categories (often populated by summer blockbusters), George Miller's movie also got nominations for Best Picture and Best Director. Impressive. But how many Academy Awards could Mad Max: Fury Road actually pick up next month? Well, to start off, let.s have a look at each of the Oscar nominations that Mad Max: Fury Road picked up. Best Picture Best Director (George Miller) Cinematography (John Seale) Costume Design (Jenny Beaven) Film Editing (Margaret Sixel) Makeup And Hairstyling (Lesley Vanderwalt, Elka Wardega, and Damian Martin) Production Design (Colin Gibson .
