The scarring on his face allegedly used a brand new kind of latex make-up that is extremely flexible, and which the actor can't feel on his/her face.Sabin wrote:Can somebody tell me the extent to which Heath Ledger was made up past smudged face paint?
"Young men make wars and the virtues of war are the virtues of young men: courage and hope for the future. Then old men make the peace, and the vices of peace are the vices of old men: mistrust and caution." -- Alec Guinness (Lawrence of Arabia)
I have to agree with that. PSH's decline as Caden Cotard was realistically mirrored in his makeup. And Samantha Morton morphed from a twenty-something receptionist to a senior citizen so effortlessly, it was like watching time-lapse photography.Sabin wrote:'Synecdoche, New York' brilliantly aged its cast.
Jennifer Jason Leigh looked like an old French by the end of the film.
"The mantle of spinsterhood was definitely in her shoulders. She was twenty five and looked it."

That's only the Davy Jones makeup and doesn't count everybody else's. I don't know how much of Davy Jones' makeup was digitally manipulated for the purpose of movement but I can only imagine a substantial amount, while ALL of Nicole Kidman's makeup was manipulated on her nose in 'The Hours'.
It could happen. Even though the first 'Hellboy' somehow managed to escape nomination in 2004, I think Guillermo Del Toro's movies are going to be a mainstay from now on. 'Synecdoche, New York' brilliantly aged its cast. I haven't seen 'Narnia' but there's no reason to believe it won't happen.

They did, however, list Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest as a finalist and gave At World's End a nomination, despite all the CGI manipulation. They also gave Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith a nomination as well.
