For Oscars followers, the term “makeup Oscar,” not to be confused with the actual award for Best Makeup and Hairstyling, is a phenomenon that affects the best actors around. Whether it’s John Wayne for True Grit or Leonardo DiCaprio for The Revenant, beloved stars tend to win for an inferior performance after years of appalling snubs. The most egregious case of a makeup Oscar lies with Al Pacino‘s Best Actor Oscar for playing the hot-tempered blind army officer, Frank Slade in Scent of a Woman. Not only is this performance nowhere near Pacino’s best, it wasn’t even his best Oscar-nominated performance in 1992, as that honor belongs to Glengarry Glen Ross.
