Surprised they didn’t instruct Bradley to rub his hands together and grin menacingly

The fact they felt that a nose prosthetic was necessary to portray the character was already yikes

Jesus fucking christ that’s a bad idea why would anyone think to do this?

Did they steal the prosthetic from a production of Cyrano de Bergerac?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

They did, "for a great nose indicates a great man."

(They didn't really and it's extremely sus)

i dont think people should use prosthetics to look like real people in biopics, period. it's a dumbass idea even when there aren't racist connotations.

Johnny Depp looking ridiculous in Black Mass because of all 3 people who were grading that film on his likeness to Whitey Bulger.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

I always think back to that one Nixon biopic as an example of a believable portrayal having a lot less to do with if an actor looks like the real life person and more to do with their acting skills. I can't remember which Nixon movie it was, actor might have been John Goodman or something, but they nailed Nixon's affect and mannerisms perfectly.

Leo spent a lifetime doing tropes smdh

The angles of the pictures are different, so the real guys may be closer to Bradley's than this comparison shows. It looks like Bradley's could still be a bit larger

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Agreed, the right picture is a fairly misleading angle, depending on what pictures makeup was working with, it might be slightly larger, but it's not that crazy

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

not really worth litigating about the accuracy---like it probably is in fact close, and its unlikely intended as caricature in a biopic i imagine is laudatory.

the problem is the decision to do it all while being aware of the trope & the fact many other things about the film's depiction will be inaccurate. if there was an overwhelming artistic reason to have the player look so much like the real guy a different actor(s) shouldve been cast.and if Cooper was so good at acting like him, if he was the perfect casting choice--- he wouldnt need extra illusion to sell it

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

It's significantly pointier

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

holy shit that prosthetic is LONG. what the fuck were the makeup crew thinking? if hollywood was actually controlled by a jewish cabal like nazis claim there's no fucking way they'd allow this

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

Did wardrobe mix up the fake noses on that day or something wtf

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (2 children)

You guys need to look at other pictures of Bernstein he had a bigger nose, I dont think this is that bad

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

My issue isn't with the size, it's with the pointiness. Also the fact that they felt the need to slap a cheap bird beak style prosthetic on Bradley Cooper when Bradley Cooper still only slightly resembles him.

I don't think it was necessarily intentional, but it's just a baffling decision.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

The prosthetic goes out way too far. Actual Bernstein:

I tried to find a comparable profile shot from Maestro, but they seem to be avoiding showing his direct profile, I couldn't find one in the trailer

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

Yet he still did it.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Did they give that same nose to Danny Devito when he was penguin?!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Didn't know Nick Mullen also did make up work
