1197 Witness Moment
Led by the staff, Lan Li quickly walked to a standby room at the end of the hallway, where the burgundy and gold interior decoration was in the same vein as this year's stage design, with a large display screen in front of it and a camera with a red light on the opposite side.
All the details indicate the reason and the purpose, here is the waiting room for the nominees as well as the award presenters.
At the awards ceremony, in order to avoid accidents, award presenters and nominees often wait in advance, and the organizing committee in order to make tidbits, but also in order to improve the party, so a special waiting room has been opened up to record the tidbits behind the stage, and at the same time, some unexpected situations can be dealt with in time.
Then there's the so-called unexpected.
The penultimate award was the Best Actor award. As the nominee and award presenter, Lan Li has no time to rush back to his position at this time, so the live broadcast waiting room is the best choice, Lan Li can still appear on the camera elegantly and calmly, and will not be absent from the critical moment of announcing the award.
In fact, this year's battle for the best actor lacks enough suspense and sparks.
The five nominees are: Daniel Day-Lewis for "Lincoln", Lanley Hall for "Detached", Jaaquin Phoenix for "The Master", Bradley Cooper for "The Happiness Line Behind the Clouds", and Hugh Jackman for "Les Miserables".
Jackman, the quality of the work and the thickness of the performance have not reached enough height, and the shortlisting is a surprise; Bradley, the comedy performance is still not convincing, and the first nomination of the idol is more of a commendation; Lan Li, who just won the award last year and is very young, the overall momentum of the work is drowned in the entire awards season, far from reaching the height of the re-award.
In other words, from start to finish, the awards season is a Daniel Day Lewis vs. Joaquin Phoenix contest.
Interestingly, Daniel and Jackie are both thorns, they rarely or refuse to participate in the college's public relations, at most only ceremonial attendance, which also weakens the power of the public relations war to the greatest extent, and all the focus is on the individual strength of the actors and the overall evaluation of the work, which rarely returns to the essence of the award.
In the competition of works, the momentum of the "master" is far inferior to that of "Lincoln", and in the professional competition, Jackie is far behind Daniel.
As a result, this year's awards ceremony has been stripped of suspense a long time ago, and everyone is waiting for Daniel Day Lewis to reach the top again, and the entire awards season has witnessed Daniel's sweep of thousands of troops, riding the dust, and sprinting all the way to the little golden man, once he reaches the top again this year, then Daniel will become the first actor in history to win the Oscar three times.
This is history. Unquestionable history.
So, despite the lack of suspense, despite the lack of spark, the organizing committee put Best Actor in the finale - before the Best Picture award, even behind the two more intense awards for Best Director and Best Actress, because it is very likely that this will be the moment when Meryl Streep presents Daniel Day Lewis with the award to go down in history.
Standing in the live broadcast waiting room, Lan Li's mood was also extremely calm, and even faintly excited. It is truly a wonderful thing to witness the birth of history.
On stage, Meryl had already completed her cross-talk, and then introduced the nominee's video playback, first Jackie, then Bradley, then Daniel, then Jackman, and finally Lanli.
In the final scene of "detachment", in the midst of a barren ruin, Henry recites Poe's poems, full of devastation and vicissitudes, despair and pain come up little by little, and the poetic sorrow is like a mist lingering around his fingertips, and the world is in ruins.
When the video finished playing, as is customary, the camera switched to Lan Li's body.
Lan Li stood gracefully in place, nodding politely to the camera, but then there was an unbelievable applause in the Dolby Theater, which swept over and over, even mixed with whistles and cheers, and the shouts were almost comparable to Daniel's.
Such an unexpected situation made Lan Li's eyes show a trace of surprise, obviously did not expect such a warm reaction, but then he showed a bright smile generously, and bowed his head slightly gentlemanly and decently, expressing his gratitude and respect.
Confident and calm response, but with a restrained low-key, it is indeed like a spring breeze.
Then, the camera switched to Meryl's body again, and five split screens appeared on the big screen, relaying the reactions of the five candidates in real time, in the expectant sight, Meryl opened the envelope, pulled out the card, and showed an elusive smile on her face, which seemed to create suspense in an instant, but it was punctured in a blink of an eye-
"The winner of the 85th Academy Award for Best Actor is...... Daniel Day-Lewis, 'Lincoln'. ”
History was born again.
After witnessing the youngest actor winner in film history last year, this year witnessed the first actor in film history to be crowned three times, and the history of the Oscars is moving forward step by step.
At the first time, Lan Li gave warm applause and expressed his high respect!
When people talk about the greatest actor in film history, the debate is bound to be endless, everyone has their own choice, but there is no doubt that Daniel is certainly one of them, and the three Oscar winners are the best praise, although they have not reached the top of the three major European film festivals, but this still does not detract from Daniel's greatness.
Since 1985 with "My Beautiful Laundromat" really entered the public eye, Daniel has starred in a total of 14 works, an average of less than one work a year, but all of them are excellent, except for 2009's "Nine" failed to meet expectations, all other works have been well received, five Oscar shortlisted, tonight for the third time won the Golden Man.
As far as Lan Li is concerned, the most impressive is always "blood is coming", and the most outstanding performance is "in the name of his father", Daniel has dedicated a wonderful and shocking acting beyond methodology and expressionism, as an actor, his low production also gives each character his own soul, which is undoubtedly awe-inspiring.
Tonight's award, Daniel deserves it.
Obviously, Lan Li was not the only one who had such thoughts, and all the audience in the entire Dolby Theater collectively stood up and applauded, and the sound of the mountains and seas reverberated for a long time, and the black pressure of a surging wave pushed the high/tide of tonight's awards ceremony to a new level.
No words, no whistles, no shouts, just applause, the most pure, direct and sincere applause, mighty and constantly whirling, compared to a little golden man, this moment of applause in silence, is a more brilliant and more significant affirmation, this is from all peers of respect, irreplaceable, can not measure.
Under the scorching and boiling gaze, Daniel calmly and calmly stepped onto the stage and took his third Little Golden Man trophy from Meryl's hand.
Someone once discussed whether the acting awards of the three major European film festivals are heavier, or the acting awards of the Oscars are heavier. The final conclusion is the latter.
Cause?
Not because of the judging system, but because of the focus of the entire platform.
Among the three major European film festivals, any film that makes it to the main competition is the result of careful selection, and each work is bound to have something to be recognized, and the original intention of the film festival is to show these excellent works of art to a wider audience, and naturally, the jury's attention is more focused on the works.
Unfortunately, there is only one top prize, which makes it impossible to miss a few pearls every year.
In order to make up for such a miss, the director award or actor award may be awarded to other outstanding works in the form of "compensation", of course, this does not mean that the director or actor is not good enough, just that the jury of the film festival is more based on the overall height of the work to judge.
Therefore, almost every year, on top of the three major European film festival awards, the performance awards may be unpopular.
In the Oscars, the nomination stage is a clear division of labor, the actors can only vote for the performance department, the screenwriter can only vote for the script department, and the major awards of the technical classification are even more so, which means that each department itself is recognized from the professional field, stripping away the comprehensive consideration of the work itself, and selecting purely from the level of professional skills.
When it comes to the award voting stage, different departments can cross-vote, but despite this, most actors will also avoid relatively professional technical awards, lest they don't know how to pretend to understand, but make jokes.
Correspondingly, the final attribution of the four major Oscar acting awards also reflects the recognition of professional skills.
From another point of view, it is precisely because of this voting system that the weight of Best Picture has been more prominent, and it can be called the most heavyweight award in the entire Oscars.
On the whole, even though the Oscars have become a game of college public relations, the authority is still guaranteed, especially in various professional items, it still occupies a place in the industry, and even in the acting department, it is more important than the three major European film festivals.
Of course, this is a matter of opinion. The acting awards at the three major European film festivals are still among the highest awards in the industry.
Now, Daniel has officially been crowned Oscar winner for the third time, becoming the first actor in his long history to reach such heights, which reminds people of four-time coronated actress Katharine Hepburn. Tonight, they witnessed the birth of history and became witnesses and participants in history, and the feeling is really indescribable.
