The nominations seemed a little light on the original song & makeup below. The number of nods are not surprising for a few of these films, but I would have thought that if a movie had nominations for writing, or best picture, or directing, that those same nods would have potentially garnered some actors getting their own nods off that work. But that’s just me wondering out-loud about the celebrated processes at work behind the scenes of Hollywood.
