10 Oscar nominees you don't know you know
Behind the scenes, but not out of the spotlight
One of the special things about Oscar night is the combination of A-list glitz and glamour with the people who make Tinseltown work behind the scenes. In the hours before we learn what won best picture, the world watches as editors, composers and costume designers take the stage.
Hollywood’s biggest night of self-congratulation is also the night when the less-celebrated masters of the art form get their due. But just because you don’t recognize their names or faces, doesn’t mean you aren’t familiar with their work. Take a look at 10 nominees who you might be surprised to know you already know. —S.
