Martin Scorsese's latest Oscar-nominated film is based on the 2004 book by Charles Brandt, I Heard You Paint Houses: Frank "The Irishman" Sheeran and Closing the Case on Jimmy Hoffa. The movie follows Robert De Niro's 'Frank Sheeran', a truck driver who becomes a hitman for Joe Pesci's mobster 'Russell Bufalino' and his Northeastern Pennsylvania crime family. He soon meets union leader 'Jimmy Hoffa' (Al Pacino) and another rising Teamster 'Anthony "Tony Pro" Provenzano', but over time relationships sour among the crime families and Sheeran soon has to put his skills at "painting houses" to use. The Best Picture nominee has garnered ten Oscar nominations, and is also nominated for Best Costume Design by Sandy Powell and Christopher Peterson.
Make sure you also take a closer look at the other four Academy Award nominees for Best Costume Design, including these Jojo Rabbit movie costumes, these Little Women movie costumes, these Once Upon a Time in Hollywood movie costumes and these Joker movie costumes.
Who will take home the Oscar on Sunday February 9, 2020 at the 92nd Academy Awards?
