Chapter 744: A Dream Come True
Four technical awards were awarded, and the crowd, including Ronan, deeply felt the atmosphere called pork portion.
Under normal circumstances, films that can get multiple nominations will always have a small golden man's harvest, and the Oscars are quite humane in some ways.
A situation like "The Shawshank Redemption" has not been common for the Oscars in the past two or three decades.
It can only be said that this film is not recognized by the Hollywood industry in terms of subject matter.
Halfway through the awards ceremony, "The Aviator" temporarily became the biggest winner, and the four golden figures of best cinematography, best costume design, best art direction and best sound effects have already fallen into their hands.
Facing the other three popular films of "Crash", "Million Dollar Baby" and "When Happiness Knocks on the Door", "The Aviator" is far ahead by a huge margin of 4-0.
In Martin Scorsese's eyes, Hollywood's legendary entertainment mogul and aviator Howard Hughes is no different from the human minotaur in Greek mythology: cursed by heaven and imprisoned in the middle of a labyrinth.
Judging from the past Oscars, this seems to be a portrayal of his own fate.
Martin Scorsese has directed such outstanding works as "Raging Bull", "Goodfellas", "Gangs of New York", "Taxi Driver", etc., and has been nominated for multiple Academy Awards, and has repeatedly missed the coveted Best Director or Best Picture awards.
Sharing the cake and pork is not only reflected in a certain film project, but also between companies.
"Eavesdropping Storm" has just won a Best Foreign Language Film for Relativity Entertainment, and "The Emperor Penguin Diary" has lost the best documentary.
The winner of the best documentary was the Indian film "Born in a Brothel".
Losing this award, Ronan breathed a sigh of relief.
This is not the era of big studios, the Oscars will not let multiple films of one company take away too many awards at the same time, and the biggest goal of Relativity Entertainment has always been those two of the four major awards.
"Need I comfort you?" Will Smith whispered.
"No need. Ronan's voice was low: "For The Emperor Penguin Diaries, the best documentary is just the icing on the cake. β
The documentary grossed tens of millions of dollars at the North American box office alone.
Moreover, it has not been listed offline.
Unlike "Fahrenheit 911," which relies on gimmicks to attract people, "The Emperor Penguin Diaries" is completely content-oriented, which can be called a typical example of successful commercial documentaries.
This year's Oscars are still black to the end, and the most heavyweight performance time is reserved for black singer BeyoncΓ©.
Awards are awarded one by one, some people are happy, and some people are naturally disappointed.
This year's Oscars did not have the situation of "The Lord of the Rings" last year, who competed with each other, the competition was fierce and average, and the defeat could not be as faceless as "The Shawshank Redemption", and the winning could not win the same all-round popularity as "The Return of the King".
Then, Relativity Entertainment received the second Golden Man of the night.
Paul Haggis got Best Original Screenplay!
This award is very important, and in most cases, the film that wins Best Picture will win one of the Best Editing or Best Screenplay awards.
Similarly, Paul Haggis won the Best Original Screenplay, which means that he completely missed the Best Director award.
The first time I was nominated for an Oscar, I got a heavyweight consolation prize, what more bike do you want?
It's really like pork, and "Million Dollar Baby" became the winner of the Best Editing Award.
Some things are really so coincidental that people are suspicious, after the selection results come out, are only the two responsible persons of PricewaterhouseCoopers really know?
But the basic credibility of the Oscars is still there.
Today, it's not to the point where even the most important award results can be mistaken.
The more the awards went to the end, the more important the awards were, and Cate Blanchett won the Best Supporting Actress statuette.
"The Aviator" seems to have a comeback.
However, anyone with a discerning eye can roughly guess that this is precisely the nostalgia of the old men of the academy for the so-called golden age.
Because Cate Blanchett's character is called Katharine Hepburn.
You know, Katharine Hepburn just passed away in 2003.
It's not so much a Cate Blanchett victory as it is the afterglow of Katharine Hepburn's death.
In Hollywood, dead stars are always more appealing than living stars, even Katharine Hepburn, who has the title of "box office poison".
This is the label that many Hollywood producers put on Katharine Hepburn, and Martin Scorsese also said this in an interview with the film's release.
In the golden age of Hollywood, there is still a difference between the criteria for judging movie stars in this era of complete commercialization.
Therefore, every box office superstar is not treated well by the old men of the academy.
On the contrary, independent film actors like Hillary Swank have always been more popular at the Oscars.
After "Boys Don't Cry", this actress, who has an average appearance and is very in line with the college's so-called image of a good actor, once again stood on the podium of the Oscar for Best Actress with "Million Dollar Baby".
Hilary Swank, the girl who grew up living in a trailer in a dilapidated parking lot, can be said to be the quintessential Hollywood dream girl, and she is the super lucky one in ten thousand.
Once again, Hillary Swank's dream has come true.
As for how much has been paid behind the scenes, only Hillary Swank herself knows.
The competition for Best Actress this year is extremely fierce, with Hilary Swank competing with Annette Bening and Kate Winslet, among others.
With Cate Blanchell's role, it is enough to apply for Best Actress, and it may be very possible to get a nomination.
But with the success of Catherine Zeta-Jones and Scarlett Johansson ahead, the Australian big devil took a lesson and automatically demoted himself to Best Supporting Actress, and finally won the Golden Man.
Oscar, operation has long become the most critical factor in winning the award.
Hilary Swank turned backstage and Charlize Theron stepped onto the Oscar stage to the beat of the music.
As last year's Best Actress, the award to be presented by South African Diamond is naturally ...... Best Actor.
The camera swept over here, and Ronan could see that under Will Smith's graceful smile, there was some nervousness. γ
This year's situation is too good, if he doesn't win Best Actor this year, Will Smith may have to wait indefinitely.
"We have a big advantage. Ronan saw the camera camera move away and whispered, "Are you ready to go on stage to accept the award?"
Will Smith licked his slightly dry lips and said, "I'm worried that I won't be able to go up." β
Ronan was heartless: "Then wait another time." β
These words choked Will Smith speechless.
He glanced at Ronan and didn't want to talk to this guy anymore.
Ronan stopped looking at Will Smith and his eyes fell on Charlize Theron on stage.
Charlize Theron, who is dressed in clothes, can be called a woman of the perfect level, tall and broad-shouldered, and definitely the best clothes rack.
It's also a good material to be a natural action type actor.
Tall, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, the action scenes are extremely believable to film, just like Sigourney Weaver in "Alien" and Linda Hamilton in "Terminator 2", it is normal to fight several men and monsters, and it will not make people feel abrupt.
Charlize Theron belongs to the enhanced version of these two, after all, it is more in line with the popular aesthetic.
"This year's Oscars are taking place at a time of no ordinary time, with a lot of people fighting for their legal rights, and the whole of Hollywood is helping them. β
As a member of Hollywood, Charlize Theron is equally familiar with selling characters: "It's also a cause that all women work for in the same way, and I think of a lot of women who have worked hard like me for many years, and for a long time they don't see hope, and then they give up." But I think we have to insist that this is not a story that people keep talking about, it's a social reality that keeps making progress!"
I don't know if this passage is a string of words, or Charlize Theron prepared it herself, even if she prepared it, it must be approved by the Oscar organizing committee.
Ronan sees another picture in Hollywood, where women's sports are on the rise.
An equally large force of political correctness is rapidly emerging in Hollywood.
Charlize Theron had already opened the envelope, looked down, and said with a smile: "Tonight's Best Actor is Will Smith from When Happiness Knocks on the Door!"
Not surprisingly, the award was a big hit.
With the current social situation, it is also expected!
Once again, applause resounded at the Kodak Theater, and many black actors stood up and applauded, then waved their arms and motioned for those around them to stand up in greeting.
On this special occasion, in the face of a special crowd, the Kodak Theater stood up and gave the warmest applause.
Will Smith hugged everyone in the crew, and finally hugged Ronan hard: "Thank you, Ronan, without you, there would be no today." β
Ronan patted him lightly on the back: "Now is your moment." β
Will Smith walked onto the stage amid a storm of applause and took the little gold man sent by Charlize Theron.
This is a victory for Will Smith and a victory for Relativity Entertainment!
Since the establishment of Relativity Entertainment, it has been the first time to get involved in the four major Oscar awards!
The Oscars, the situation of the hot must die is just a special case with a small probability, and this edition is no exception, everything is as predicted before the awards ceremony.
As Hollywood's hardest right, Clint Eastwood still won the Best Director award even if the social environment was unfavorable.
This also has to do with Clint Eastwood's style of acting, the old cowboy's stubbornness, which has always been reflected in doing things, rarely speaking.
Despite being a Californian, Clint Eastwood is more of a Texas redneck.
The awards ceremony came to the end**, "Crash" lifted the trophy for Best Picture, and Relativity Entertainment also became the biggest winner tonight!
