Oscar Noms!

Achievement in costume design: The Aviator (Sandy Powell — Orlando, Wings of the Dove, Shakespeare in Love, Far From Heaven), Finding Neverland (Alexandra Byrne — Phantom of the Opera, Elizabeth, Persuasion), A Series of Unfortunate Events (Colleen Atwood — Sleepy Hollow, Little Women), Ray (Sharen Davis — Devil in a Blue Dress), Troy (Bob Ringwood — Alien 3 & Resurrection, AI, Star Trek Nemesis, Dune). ooooo, tough call for me between The Aviator and Finding Neverland (with Series of Unfortunate Events coming in third). Troy?

Also of interest! Art direction: The Aviator, Finding Neverland, A Series of Unfortunate Events, Phantom of the Opera, A Very Long Engagement.

I’m thrilled to see that Kate Winslet (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind) and Cate Blanchett (The Aviator) were nominated, both because they are fabulous actresses but also because they are sure to wear something smashing. And Clive Owen was nominated for Closer. Yum.
