The last five Oscars for Makeup and Hairstyling (MUAHS) have gone to remarkable transformations into legendary figures: “The Eyes of Tammy Faye,” “Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom,” “Bombshell,” “Vice,” and “Darkest Hour.” This season, the trend continues with Ana de Armas as Marilyn Monroe in Andrew Dominik’s impressionistic deconstruction, “Blonde” (Netflix), and Austin Butler as Elvis Presley in Baz Luhrmann’s delirious biopic, “Elvis” (Warner Bros.). Even more impressive are the innovative digital prosthetics behind Brendan Fraser’s 600-pound English teacher in Darren Aronofsky’s compassionate “The Whale” (A24) and the unrecognizable Colin Farrell as Oswald “Oz” Cobblepot (a.k.a the Penguin) in Matt Reeves’ noirish “The Batman” (Warner Bros.). They are joined by other outstanding work devoted to showbiz, social change, and superheroics.
