Dallas Buyers Club Had a $5 Million Budget but Spent Only $250 on Makeup
The makeup team for Dallas Buyers Club proved that you don’t need a big budget to achieve incredible results. With an incredibly low $250 dedicated to the makeup budget, the film’s makeup artists were able to deliver award-winning work that even snagged an Oscar for Makeup and Hairstyling!
And that’s not all that’s mindblowing about the behind-the-scenes of this film. Matthew McConaughey’s transformation for his role as an AIDS patient was quite worrisome. The dedicated actor lost a staggering 47 pounds to fully immerse himself in the role, proving his unwavering commitment to his craft.
