Makeup and Hairstylists Guild nominates ‘Lone Ranger,’ ‘American Hustle,’ ‘Bad Grandpa’

The Makeup and Hairstylists Guild has not presented awards in nearly a decade. This year, however, IATSE Local 706 is dusting off the trophies and jumping back into the kudos circuit.

All of the films that made the bake-off stage with the Academy are represented with nominations. So very little has been done to narrow things down, though you could take note of the fact that “The Lone Ranger” is the only film to manage two nominations.

I think we’re likely to see “American Hustle” in play and I feel pretty good about “Bad Grandpa,” but it’s a toss-up for me on the last spot. Could be the BAFTA-nominated “The Great Gatsby,” could be the obviously respected (at least in this department) “The Lone Ranger.” I may well tweak these predictions as well.

Check out the full list of nominees in an array of categories below, and as ever, keep track of the ups and downs of the season via The Circuit.
