The Academy has narrowed the potential Best Makeup & Hairstyling nominees down to seven finalists. Only three of these will make it through and I suspect that Mad Max, The Revenant and Mr. Holmes may end up the nominees, though Black Mass and 100-Year-Old Man could also be contenders. 7 FEATURES ADVANCE IN RACE FOR…

Tied for the most nominations, Spotlight finally gets the bounty it has been denied so far this year and Mad Max: Fury Road continues to do well. Often one of the best precursors to the Academy Awards, Phoenix has changed their nominations to only list 3 in many categories, which doesn’t help prognosticators much. Still,…

More good news for Mad Max: Fury Road, which secured another Best Picture prize along with Best Director, Best Editing and Best Visual Effects. Leonardo DiCaprio makes another appearance at the top of a list as does Brie Larson who hasn’t gotten that much attention lately. It’s clear this group loved genre pics with Mad…

The Revenant had a smashing day at the Dallas-Fort Worth Film Critics Association taking four awards, but coming in second behind Spotlight which won two. Dallas-Fort Worth is the only group that announce ranked lists of most categories. The only real surprise was The Revenant topping The Hateful Eight for Music Score and even that…
