20th Costume Designers Guild Awards Winners

On February 20th winners were announced in the platinum anniversary gala hosted by Gina Rodriguez which celebrated special honorees Guillermo del Toro, Joanna Johnston, Maggie Schpak and Kerry Washington as well as the winners of the seven competitive award categories.

Additionally John Mollo was posthumously inducted into the Guild's Hall of Fame by Mark Hamill, who paid tribute to the iconic designer known for his work on the first two installments of the Star Wars films, among others.

Maggie Schpak, expert jeweler/metalworker, received the Distinguished Service Award from the CDG President, Salvador Perez. The award honors individuals whose specialties and talents contribute to the craft and art of Costume Design.

Guillermo del Toro was awarded the Distinguished Collaborator Award which honors individuals who demonstrate unwavering support of Costume Design and creative partnerships with Costume Designers. Actor Doug Jones and Oscar-nominated Costume Designer Luis Sequeira, both from del Toro’s 13-time Oscar-nominated film The Shape of Water, presented del Toro with the award.

Kerry Washington was presented with the Spotlight Award, which honors an actor whose talent and career personify an enduring commitment to excellence, including a special awareness of the role and importance of Costume Design. Eva Longoria, and Scandal Costume Designer, Lyn Paolo, made the special presentation to Washington.

Joanna Johnston was honored with the Career Achievement Award recognizing her extraordinary body of work and lasting impact on filmmaking. Producer, Kathleen Kennedy presented Johnston with her award, with a surprise appearance by Sally Field, who worked with Johnston on Forrest Gump and Lincoln.

To the surprise of many, favorite Oscar category winner did NOT got a guild honor and yes, this time I have to agree that Phantom Thread has spectacular costume designer work, while the other films in the Period Film category pale when comparison.  Strongly believe that even Murder on the Orient Express has better costume design than winner.  Sigh.  Imagine Academy voters will not behave the same as guild voters.

If one winner deserves costume design recognition for magnificent work in film's very different scenarios is Wonder Woman, congrats. 

Winners are in  *BLUE.  To check winners in all categories go official site here.

#Oscars2018 Makeup and Hairstyling Shortlist

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced yesterday that seven (7) films remain in competition in the Makeup and Hairstyling category for the 90th Academy Awards. On Saturday, January 6, 2018, all members of the Academy’s Makeup Artists and Hairstylists Branch will be invited to view 10-minute excerpts from each of the seven shortlisted films. Following the screenings, members will vote to nominate three films for final Oscar consideration. Seems that this year there were not many films that qualified for this category and as far as what is happening up-to-today, this category is the first that will not have five nominations. But what puzzles me most is the reason why behind NOT including films like The Shape of Water, Blade Runner 2049 or even Star Wars: The Last Jedi.  Perhaps is because now lines between VFX and makeup blur, especially for us viewers and for those who are trying to guess something in current awards season. The films are listed below in alphabeti...

43rd Annual Los Angeles Film Critics Association Awards Winners

The so-called " most powerful " group of American critics voted their 2017 awards and top award went to Luca Guadagnino's Call Me by Your Name which is a surprise in the sense that film in America was the object of negative reviews, especially those related to film story being about " gay statutory rape " (sic). Sigh. Then, under group standards believe voting was "fast" as only took five-and-a-half hours and I recall voting for longer than six hours, lol.  Still was too-long for me to follow live. Most interesting were the awards given to female actors as it's great to see outstanding Sally Hawkins being honored as she has had many-many great performances along her career and Laurie Metcalf being recognized for her work in the big screen. No doubt that group liked Guadagnino's film but thanks to them Guillermo del Toro's latest film has been put in the awards race.  Notorious is how once again the west coast film critics honors differ from...

90th Academy Awards Foreign Language Films Submissions

10/6/17 Update - AMPAS surprised many of us with what we can call an early release of the submitted and accepted films to the foreign language film category as usually takes them 10 days or more to announce the complete list. But more interesting is the amount of countries that had films accepted, a new record (!) with 92 submitting films this year, which are seven (7) more countries/films than last year's 85. There are too many great films in list and too-many films, period. Hopefully new "simplified" process will allow more films to be seen by more people, but believe is just a hope as know that films with strong promotion will have better chances than those without it. Already have received several invitations to private screenings in LA and yes are for films from the great filmmakers as this year list has several master filmmakers like Haneke, Akin, Ostlund, Martel, Roskam, Holland, Lelio, Bartas, Trier, and Zvyagintsev plus perhaps lesser known but already collec...
