Hitchcock
Nominees: Howard Berger, Peter Montagna, and Martin Samuel
Oscar History: Special make-up effects artist Howard Berger won an Oscar for The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe; this is the first Oscar nomination for special make-up effects artist Peter Montagna. Hair department head Martin Samuel has two previous Oscar nominations: for Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2004) and Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End (2008).
What Berger said: ''The big thing is, it's not a likeness makeup, it's a portrait makeup. If the studio said, 'We want an exact copy of Hitchcock on Anthony Hopkins,' I would [have said], 'That can't happen.' I was doing a makeup on one of the world's most well-known actors, Anthony Hopkins, as one of the world's most known directors, Alfred Hitchcock.'' (Read more here.)
