When Di Caprio saw him doing the humming while preparing for the scene, he suggested to McConaughey to do it in the scene. McConaughey explained (video below) explained the humming was not in the script originally, but is something the actor does to relax his voice and prepare for acting. In The Wolf of Wall Street, the two actors appear together in a scene where McConaughey’s character is beating his chest and humming (video above). Leonardo Di Caprio and Matthew McConaughey are nominated for the Best Actor Oscar-Di Caprio for his performance in Martin Scorsese’s The Wolf of Wall Street, and McConaughey for Dallas Buyers Club. Matthew McConaughey and Leonardo Di Caprio in The Wolf of Wall Street Anwar appears happy and nonchalant about the fact he has killed more than 1,000 people.

Amy Adams is nominated for Best Actress, one of American Hustle’s 10 nominations. All of them are somehow altering their image, in a way not “being real.” While Sydney is saying “This is who I am,” the camera shows her from behind, thus still not revealing her true identity. She is wearing hair curlers in the scene-a repeated element throughout the film, as Christian Bale’s character is wearing a wig, and Bradley Cooper’s character is curling his hair too. She is so used to her fake British personality though, that as she is saying “I am done with her,” her “r” slips into the British pronunciation. Says Amy Adams’ character (Sydney Prosser) in a scene from American Hustle where she reveals she is not British and was faking her British accent. With the Oscars 2014 starting in just a few hours, here is a brief overview of some of this year’s best quotes from the nominated movies. Amy Adams in American Hustle Amy Adams in American Hustle
