Chapter 1159 - Successive Awards
Amy Adams exhaled softly, exhaling the emotions inside her body and calming herself down. However, as an Oscar-winning resentful woman, as an actor who missed the Golden Man five times, it is really difficult for her to calm down completely.
When Amy Adams spoke, with a distinct trill, "Thank you so much! I'm so happy! After the ceremony, watching the video of the ceremony, I will definitely skip this paragraph, I know that I am now like an incoherent fool." I would like to thank all the members of Angel of Justice, Prem Gill from Summit Entertainment, Cynthia Schwartz, our PR Cynthia Schwartz, and Siqin Gaova for playing with her, I had a great time playing with her. and Jiao Junyan, who plays Meiru, and many other actors, they are all very good. Of course, the most important and greatest person is director Zhang Ran, who not only wrote great scripts, but also made me the best actor. I've really made my dream come true now. I love standing here! It's really amazing! Finally, I want to thank my husband, my mother, my children, I love you guys!"
Zhang Ran was applauding, Zhang Jingchu was applauding, and everyone at the scene was applauding. Amy Adams has been nominated six times, her acting skills are impeccable, and she portrayed Weitling vividly in "Angel of Justice" this time, and the whole performance is extremely moving, this award is well deserved.
After Amy Adams won the first statuette for Angel of Justice, rival La La Land soon opened. "La La Land" easily defeated other opponents and took away the trophy with excellent cinematography. It's not that the photography of "Angel of Justice" is not as good as "La La Land", but that Zhao Fei has already won two Oscars, and it is impossible for him to easily let him win the third time.
By this time, the three popular films of this year's Oscars, "Angel of Justice", "La La Land" and "Moonlight" are all one trophy, and everyone is going hand in hand.
After the Iranian film "The Salesman" won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, a car belonging to the future appeared on the stage, which was the sci-fi car in the movie "Back to the Future". Actor Seth Rogen and Back to the Future actor Michael Fox got out of the car and walked to the middle of the stage with the list of winners.
With a bang, Zhang Ran sat up straight, and the smile on his face couldn't help but stiffen a little. Zhang Jingchu, Amy Adams, and all the members of the "Angel of Justice" crew all reacted in the same way, and they all sat up straight with serious expressions.
This is not only the case with the "Angel of Justice" crew, but also with the "La La Land" crew and the "Moonlight Boy" crew, all holding their breath and staring, their eyes like hooks, tightly hooking the list of winners in Michael Fox's hands.
Next up is the Best Editing Award, which can have a significant impact on the award for Best Picture. If it can win the Best Editing Award, then the winning film is in the leading position in the race for Best Picture.
"We're going to win the Best Editing award, and when it comes to the impact of the film, I think we owe too much to the editor, and all the finalists tonight have to rely on editing to get the best results. The films nominated for the Best Editing Award are......"
""Advent" Joe Walker, "La La Land" Tom Cross, "Hacksaw Ridge" John Gilbert, "Moonlight Boy" Nat Saunders, "Angel of Justice" Zhou Xinxia!"
At the same time as the narration sounds, clips from five movies appear on the big screen one after another. Every time the narrator announces the name of a movie, there is applause from the audience. When the picture of "Angel of Justice" appeared, the applause of the audience was undoubtedly the most enthusiastic.
In the center of the stage, Michael Fox opens the envelope and hands it to Seth Rogan. Seth Rogan, who took the envelope, took out the list of winners and read, "Angel of Justice Zhou Xinxia! This is the fourth time she has been nominated and the second time she has won the award!"
"Angel of Justice" won the best editing In many people's expectations, "Angel of Justice" has three main lines, the story switches back and forth in different time and space, and the editing requirements are very high, but "Angel of Justice" has a very high degree of completion, and there is no abruptness at all. The whole movie shows an amazing level of editing.
Zhou Xinxia once won the Oscar for the excellent editing of "One Person's Lights", and then "Future Apocalypse" and "Scorching Sun" were also nominated. She received the trophy from Michael Fox and said with a big smile, "It's very easy to be Zhang Ran's editor because he has done everything in the storyboard and 3D storyboard, and he just needs to cut it according to his intentions." He himself is also a very good editor, but he didn't go into battle himself, but left it to me to edit. Well, actually, I just want to continue to work with him so that I can have a chance to come back to the Oscars. ”
The audience burst into laughter, and Zhang Ran was also laughing. Zhou Xinxia continued, "Seriously, although this award is an editing award, it is also inseparable from the efforts of everyone in the crew. If you don't have good acting, good cinematography, and good art, no matter how good the editing technique is, it's useless. So, I would like to thank everyone on the cast for their efforts, and thank everyone who cared about and supported this film. Finally, I would like to thank my family. Thank you!"
After "Angel of Justice" won the best editing, "La La Land" began to explode. won the Best Cinematography award first, followed by Best Original Song and Best Original Score, and won four awards in succession. However, in the competition for Best Original Screenplay, "La La Land" lost to "Manchester by the Sea". After losing the best editing and the best original screenplay, "La La Land" is almost certainly out of the race for best picture.
Just then, Scarlett Johansson, the presenter of the Best Adapted Screenplay award, appeared on stage. With a red envelope in her hand, she stood in the center of the stage and said in her slightly hoarse voice, "The films shortlisted for Best Adapted Screenplay this year all bring these stories to life by adding cinematic magic." If the best adapted screenplay has ......"
Clips of the nominated films appear on the big screen, while voiceovers play "'Arrival' Eric Heisel, based on Ted Kang's "The Story of Your Life", "Angel of Justice" Zhang Ran, based on "The Weitling Diaries," "Rabe's Diary," and "Zhang Chunru," "Moonlight" Barry Jenkins, based on Tarrell McCartney's stage play, "The Fence" August Wilson, based on the stage play of the same name, "The Lion" Luke Davis, based on Salo Blairley's The Long Way Home". ”
Every time a clip of a movie is not played, there will be a round of applause. And when the clip of Zhang Chunru's speech at Yale University in "Angel of Justice" was played at the end, the applause at the scene was like a bomber flying at an altitude of several hundred meters, making the entire theater tremble slightly.
"The final winner is ......" Scarlett Johansson opened the envelope in her hand and took out the letter paper inside.
Zhang Ran looked very calm, with a shallow smile on his face, as if the ownership of this award could not cause any waves in his heart, but this was all pretended. At this time, Zhang Ran's hands were already clenched, and his nails were almost embedded in the flesh.
Barry Jenkins, the director and screenwriter of "Moonlight," was trembling slightly with nervousness, and his head was even starting to sweat. He knows very well that this award is the contest between "Angel of Justice" and "Moonlight Boy". What's more important is that "Angel of Justice" already has the best editing in hand, and the best adapted screenplay award will be locked in the best film.
In a house in Urbana, Urbana, Illinois, Zhang Chunru's father and mother sat in front of the TV, looking at Scarlett Johansson on the screen, their eyes were full of anticipation; in Ryan Town, New York, at Dr. Shao Ziping's house, Dr. Shao Ziping, his wife and children sat in front of the TV, staring nervously at the big screen; in the suburbs of Los Angeles, Ding Yuan sat in the living room, looking at the envelope in Scarlett Johansson's hand, and said lightly, "Chunru, bless the Angel of Justice!"
Equally nervous were Chinese viewers and moviegoers who sat in front of computers and televisions watching live broadcasts. Dozens of seconds ago, fans and fans were still brushing the barrage, but at the moment, the screen was empty, and no one spoke. If it weren't for Scarlett Johansson moving on the screen, many people would have thought that there was something wrong with the network.
And at this very time!
Scarlett Johansson smiled heartily after seeing the final result, looked up at Zhang Ran who was sitting in the first row, and said, "Zhang Ran, Angel of Justice!"
At this moment, the entire Kodak Grand Theater was boiling! Zhang Chunru's parents, Dr. Shao Ziping, Ding Yuan, and all the Chinese in North America who paid attention to "Angel of Justice" all stood up and waved their arms high! At this moment, in China, countless Zhang Ran fans and netizens began to swipe the screen, and the pictures of various video websites were instantly engulfed by barrage, as if there was a locust plague, and layers of text crossed the screen, covering the picture tightly.
Zhang Ran's face was flushed with excitement, as if someone was missing a fire in his heart, oozing heat from the inside out, and there was fire flashing in his eyes. "Moonlight Boy" and "La La Land" did not have an editing award or a screenplay award, while "Angel of Justice" won the Best Editing and Best Adapted Screenplay awards, and the Best Picture award was stable!
The members of the crew of "Angel of Justice" all stood up, just like seeing a pervert who didn't wear a piece of Fan Binbin, they screamed excitedly, they suddenly pounced on Zhang Ran, hugged Zhang Ran tightly, and then clapped their hands loudly.
Barry Jenkins, the director of "Moonlight Boy", and the producer all sighed slightly, lost the best editing, and lost the best adapted screenplay award, it can be said that in the competition for best picture, "Moonlight Boy" has been out, and the best picture is "Angel of Justice".
As for the screenwriters of the other three films, although they have some regrets, this result has long been expected by them. For them, being nominated at the same time as "Angel of Justice" is already a huge honor.
In the warm applause of the guests, Zhang Ran walked on the stage proudly and walked towards Scarlett Johansson, who was holding the trophy. Scarlett Johansson saw Zhang Ran coming, opened her arms, gave him a strong hug, and sent congratulations, "Director, congratulations! The award that "Future Apocalypse" didn't win at the beginning finally got it back this time!"
Whether it is "One Man's Lights" or "Future Apocalypse", they all threw out other films, but in the end they missed out on Best Picture, and this time, Best Picture finally arrived.
Zhang Ran's whole person looked very relaxed, "To be honest, I feel deserved to receive this award." It's not how well my script is written, it's the heroes in the story, their deeds are so moving. There are many characters in the movie, if their stories are taken out separately, they can be written into an epic. If the whole story is ten, then I might only write three. For me, the heroes in the story are the ones I want to thank the most. If it weren't for them not leaving so many stories, then I couldn't be standing here. That's all I have to say. Thank you!"
