How Godwin Baxter's looks were inspired by the Guinea Pig Club, with 'Poor Things' prosthetic makeup artist Josh Weston

The next guest on the show is Josh Weston, fresh off a BAFTA win in the Best Makeup and Hairstyling category for Poor Things, for which Nadia Stacey, Mark Coulier and he are also nominated at this year's Academy Awards thanks to their wonderful work.
Josh’s filmography includes a number of popular films, as he worked on the makeup and prosthetics of Elvis; Last Night in Soho; the Fantastic Beasts films and Suspiria, not to mention TV shows, like Game of Thrones or The Witcher
Josh was kind enough to talk to Szilveszter about the prosthetics we see in this unusual coming-of-age film starring Emma Stone, including a behind the scenes look at the inspirations and the application process of Willem Dafoe’s memorable appearance as Godwin Baxter.
