Some people say that time is rushing, if a white horse passes by, it will happen suddenly, and some people say that time is too slow, and every minute and second is torment.

But the time was just right for John.

During this time, he took advantage of the fact that "Forrest Gump" had not yet started, and in addition to laughing and playing with the two little guys every day, he hid in the study the rest of the time to create movie interludes.

There are a total of 34 interludes in "Forrest Gump", except for the vast majority of classic tracks from various eras in the United States, only a few are original, among which the opening music "Forrest Gump Suite" can be said to be a classic, as long as the melody sounds, it will naturally remind people of the white feathers fluttering in the wind in the movie "Forrest Gump".

The whole piece is both soft and soothing, but also high-pitched and passionate, just like the ups and downs of life, there are times when flowers are blooming, and there are times when they are dull.

After the song was written, John continued to hand over the original song to RCA Records, and the quality of the famous record company was still relatively bad. As for those classic tracks, Nancy first bought the rights and then handed them over to RCA Records to produce together, so that John didn't have to worry about the soundtrack of Forrest Gump, and he could concentrate on filming.

The 64th Academy Awards are starting to announce the nominees. Dani pushed open the door to the study, walked over to John, and said.

"Let's get started! John put down his pen and his mouth was deflated.

This year's best picture is "The Silence of the Lambs"

The most recent director is Jonathan Demy

Best Actor is Anthony Hopkins

Best Actress is Jodie Foster

……

If necessary, John can recite all the Academy Award-winning films and people, probably because he has a good memory because of the rebirth, but that sometimes makes it less fun.

It's like reading a comic book from Detective Colan, if someone tells you in advance who the murderer is, would you still be interested in reading it?

"Boss, you're so hard to forget that "Stealing Love" is in the Academy Awards for Best Song this year? Don't you want to want to see if your composition has been nominated?" Dani gave John a big roll of the eye.

"Oh......" After Dani's reminder, John remembered as if there was such a thing.

The selection of "Stealing Love" for Best Song at the Academy Awards is mainly run by New Line Films and ICM, and he, the songwriter, has nothing to do, so he naturally forgot about it.

The list of nominations for this year's Academy Awards was announced at the Samuel Goldwin Theater in Beverly Hills, by Academy President Carl Molden and actress Kathleen Turner.

"Boss, do you have confidence in the nomination?" said Dani on the living room couch, watching the TV with great interest, waiting for Carl Molden and Katherine Turner to announce the nominees.

"It's alright!" John replied blankly, staring at the TV. "Unless the old guys at the academy collectively change their style, a nomination for Best Song won't run away. ”

John is really not interested in such a small award, and the Academy Awards can interest him in the best director's little golden man, and the others can be ignored.

At 8:38 a.m., the nominees were officially announced, and Academy President Carl Molden and actress Kathleen Turner took to the stage.

John looked at the now 37-year-old Catherine Turner and suddenly remembered the scene in 2000 when the actress appeared naked in the stage play "The Graduate", and the horizontal flesh of more than 80 kilograms is still very spicy to this day.

This year's Academy Awards are still those people and those films as John remembers, the only difference is that there is an extra song "When You Believe" from "Stealing Love" in the Best Song nomination.

"Boss, do you think we can take away the Academy Award for Best Song?" asked Dani as she looked sideways at John, who felt that her boss's "When You Believe" melody was beautiful and had a big chance of winning.

John thought for a moment and gave a more reasonable answer. After all, Beauty and the Beast from Beauty and the Beast is also very good. ”

The song "Beauty and the Beast" is not inferior to "When You Believe" in "Stealing Love" in terms of melody and singer level, and the best song of this year's Academy Awards in history is "Beauty and the Beast", so John is not absolutely sure about winning the award.

"No......" Dani retorted, apparently disagreeing with John's statement. "Boss! I think we have a bigger chance of winning than Beauty and the Beast. ”

"Your confidence!" John turned to look at Dani.

Dani smirked. "I've looked up all the creators who could win the Academy Award for Best Song this year, and if I'm not mistaken, the creator of the theme song for Beauty and the Beast should be Howard Ashman, who is now deceased. ”

The Academy Awards are not the Nobel Prizes, and the deceased are still eligible to win. ”

"Of course I do. But Howard Ashman died of AIDS. Dani's eyes glowed as if she had discovered a new world, and her delicate little face made a look of "you understand" to John.

John carefully recalled some events at the 64th Academy Awards, and it didn't take long for him to remember a news that the Academy Awards had moved the Best Song award to a composer who died of AIDS for the first time, and it was supposed to be this Howard Ashman.

If this is the case, then "Stealing Love" is indeed bigger than "Beauty and the Beast", and "Beauty and the Beast" did not meet any strong competitors in the previous life, so even if Howard Ashman died of AIDS, he could win the Academy Award for Best Song in the end.

But this life is different, and now the two songs "When You Believe" and "Beauty and the Beast" can be said to be equal, and the conservative old men in the academy are more likely to choose "Stealing Love" in this case.

Thinking of this, John hurriedly said. Tell Nancy not to forget to tell the old men at the college that Howard Ashman is a man who died of AIDS. ”

Although the old men of the academy are in the emerging arts, their thinking is still very conservative, and there is even some discrimination, of course, these can only be thought about in their hearts, and they cannot be shouted out openly, after all, the United States is a "democratic and free" country, and it is absolutely not allowed to openly discriminate against this and that, even if you want to discriminate in your heart, there is no need to fight against the law.
