Song Zheng is still participating in the Golden Globe Awards ceremony for the first time, and unlike the solemnity of the Oscars that he has seen on TV, the Golden Globes are more like a grand party.

At the beginning, there was a song and dance performance with European and American characteristics, and several singers who are very popular in the United States took turns, including Canadian rock diva Avril.

After the song and dance performance, the awards ceremony officially kicked off, a black talk show actor came up and talked nonsense, and several guests present ridiculed it all over again, and everyone at the scene was also amused, of course, Song Zheng was an exception, not because his laughter was high, but because of different cultures, he really didn't know where a black buddy was living blindly on it, where the laughter was.

Foreigner's variety show gala, Song Zheng asked himself if he couldn't appreciate it, and he reluctantly pretended to be for a while, and began to observe the guests present today.

In the eyes of foreigners, Chinese almost all look the same, and in the eyes of Song Zheng, a Chinese, the appearance of these foreigners is also unrecognizable, except for those who are particularly famous, such as the middle-aged man with a beautiful little black beard sitting in front of Song Zheng's table at the moment.

Robert Downey Jr.!

In Song Zheng's view, Donnie's product is the kind of typical God who appreciates food, in this world, there are not many talented people, and there are even fewer people who have talent and work hard, and Donnie is one of the rare ones.

His father Robert Downey is a very famous director in the United States, Downey's talent should mostly come from his father, he first touched the big screen at the age of 4, and at the age of 28, he was nominated for the 65th Oscar with a documentary-like movie "Chaplin".

But unfortunately, there was another one nominated at the same time as him that year, this is called Al Pacino, his shortlisted work is called "Smell the Fragrance and Know the Woman", Song Zheng himself also likes Al Pacino very much, he has also seen this movie many times, the script is very good, and the actor's acting skills have nothing to say, and most importantly, Al Pacino should have won the award for his superb acting skills in "The Godfather" earlier, but he didn't get it at that time, so the 65th class, no matter what, this award will definitely be given to Al Pacino.

The 28-year-old Downey was at the peak of his horizontal bar at that time, and Al Pacino, who was at the peak of his horizontal bar and had the right time and place, only lost by 2 votes, which is enough to prove his talent as an actor.

The same thing continued in the '81 Oscar race for Best Supporting Actor, where Downey played an action comedy "Tropic Thunder," which the academy had never liked very much, and he played a black supporting actor, and he was shortlisted for this award, but unfortunately he ran into Heath Ledger's Joker, not to mention.

The above is enough to prove Donnie's talent, of course, his success is also inseparable from his hard work, 97 to 08 was the desperate period of Donnie's career, he went from a well-known actor, suddenly to an outdated actor who had to rely on auditions to fight for a third-class supporting role.

But he didn't give up, he created a role by role, until the 2008 "Iron Man" that made him famous again in the world, before the filming of "Iron Man", Marvel was on the verge of bankruptcy, it can be said that if this movie is made well, Marvel will survive, and if it is not filmed well, what people may see now is a company that is unrecognizable and does not know what to call after being acquired.

Downey went to audition, he had no money at the time, he was wearing a cheap suit, a simple white shirt, and he went to the audition with dozens of ways to play Tony Stark, which he had worked so hard to develop.

Later, he succeeded, the director insisted on keeping him, his salary at the time was 500,000, and even the salary for the supporting role of Xiao Luo was several times higher than him, he took the 500,000 salary, and earned Marvel nearly 600 million US dollars at the box office, and more importantly, Marvel survived, so there is Captain America, Black Widow, Hawkeye, and Thor that people see next.

It can be said that it was Downey who saved Marvel, and it is also the most stable and important cornerstone of Marvel.

The market is the most acute, and it will not make a person famous, nor will it let a person fail to achieve anything.

Downey has played countless types of roles, but the role of Iron Man is the most famous, and most audiences are familiar with him from this role, he brought Iron Man from the second dimension to the third dimension, which also led to the fact that most of the audience circled his image in their hearts to Tony Stark.

However, Downey came to the scene today, not because of "Iron Man", but because of a "Sherlock Holmes", he was nominated for Best Actor in a Musical Comedy at this year's Golden Globe Awards.

At the same table as Donnie, there was another gray-haired old man with a unique temperament who caught Song Zheng's attention: Jeff Bridges, a powerful old actor.

Those who are not familiar with Hollywood may not know much about him, but his role as "The Governor" in 1998's "Murder of Green Toes" is one of the greatest screen roles in Western film history.

Jeff Bridges has dedicated his life to Hollywood. At the age of 22, he was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for his debut film "The Last Movie", and since then he seems to have been waiting for a good role that will really make him shine.

In his previous life, Bridges waited until he was 60 years old to finally get this role, and it was "Crazy Heart", which made him shortlisted for Best Actor in a Drama today.

Using a sentence like "he's the character" to describe an actor's good performance may sound corny, but after watching "Crazy Heart", anyone will find that there is no other word to describe Jeff Bridges's naturally relaxed, but touching performance.

In his previous life, it was with the role of country singer "Bad Boy Blake" that Bridges finally won the Oscar Golden Man trophy.

"Crazy Heart" tells the story of country singer "Bad Boy Blake". He was once a smash hit, but in the blink of an eye, he is in his 50s. The back waves of the Yangtze River pushed the front waves, and Blake suddenly discovered that the fame and fortune that were at his fingertips in the past had long since disappeared with the passage of time. Frustrated, he could only use wine to kill his sorrows, look for flowers and ask willows, until the young single mother Jane walked into his life, and he saw a ray of dawn again.

As a film that advocates a return to traditional values, the film reflects the theme of getting lost and re-choosing traditional human values on the road of life.

The thirst for love and the discussion of family responsibility are actually a topic explored in many movies, but for American society, which is covered by too many romantic stories of beautiful women and handsome guys, this affirmation of traditional values has actually been a relatively serious and concerned topic.

A few years ago, comedian Adam Sandler's "Remote Control of Life" was actually a drama that explored the value of life, but unfortunately its profundity was seriously ignored under the overly comedic appearance.

And last year's youth idol film "Back to Seventeen", although it is a campus comedy theme dominated by beautiful women and handsome guys, it also promotes orthodox family values in content.

And "In the Clouds" starring George Clooney, which also belongs to the same schedule as this "Crazy Heart", is actually the same as this film in terms of content, depicting the theme of "the prodigal son turning back", a cynical senior company employee who regards feelings as child's play and finally returns to the concept of true love and family.

The launch of these films not only reflects the temptations and easily lost states faced by human beings in a highly developed commercial society, but also reflects that the desire for true love and a peaceful family life is a common value theme for human beings, both in China and abroad.

"Crazy Heart" moves slowly in a bland atmosphere, and for nearly two hours, it is only used to tell the story of a lost soul who is finally redeemed.

As a film with an inner outpouring that requires the audience to judge the value for themselves, the lack of the so-called high-tide link is also an inevitability of this kind of film.

It's not a film that relies on twists and turns to captivate audiences, and it's even nowhere near as dramatic as Love Is Simple and In the Clouds.

However, it was the ideas revealed in the film that moved the audience. Of course, Jeff Bridges's performance almost completely supports the whole film to a certain extent, this veteran actor who relied on playing the role of "Governor" in "Murder of Green Toes" and has a high reputation in the audience, relying on his perfect acting skills, makes himself and the down-and-out singer in the film completely integrated, and has a perfect expression of his stubbornness and helplessness in his career, as well as his desire and doubts about love.

In the film, after he was infected at Jane's house, he called his son who had been separated for many years and did not want to take care of him, and then the scene of crying in the bathroom, all of which vividly express the remorse of a middle-aged man who has hurt himself but has hurt others, and the awakening mentality of longing for forgiveness.

Originally, a movie like this was limited by the age of watching the movie, and it shouldn't have a good performance, but such a slightly "dull" film has created an eye-popping performance.

In the case of almost being released at the same time as "Avatar", it has maintained the miracle of being in the top ten of the North American box office list for more than ten consecutive weeks, although the total box office cannot be the same as "Avatar", but this tenacious vitality also really proves the quality of this movie.

With the actors' outstanding performances, the pleasing soundtrack of country songs, and the universally recognized theme of family love values, it is inevitable that the film will be recognized.

Although the story doesn't end with Blake's finding spring, Bridges has apparently found his own spring through Blake's story.

Song Zheng remembered that it was with his wonderful performance in this movie that Bridges finally won the Golden Globe Award and the Oscar this year, which can be regarded as a wish.

Speaking of Oscars, Jeff Bridges has never had much of an award, and when he was nominated for Best Supporting Actor in "The Last Movie" in 1972, he lost to his film partner, veteran Ben Johnson.

Nominated for the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for the second time, he met the formidable opponent of Robert De Niro in "The Godfather 2".

His third Oscar nomination for Supporting Actor was in 2001, when he lost to Benicio del Toro in Drug Network.

Bridges was also nominated for an Oscar for Best Actor, and his role in the sci-fi film "Alien Love" was good, but when he met the great Murray Abraham in "The Biography of Mozart", he regretted missing the little golden man, and he can only blame fate for always arranging these invincible opponents for him.

In this way, Jeff Bridges is now 60 years old.

Song Zheng must also admit that in the movie "Crazy Heart", Jeff Bridges's performance is very convincing, but Song Zheng does not think that he has no chance to fight.

While Song Zheng was busy observing the competitors, the main drama of the Golden Globe Awards also kicked off, and various awards were awarded one after another, and after the TV awards, it was finally the turn of the film category.

The highlight is naturally put in the back, although the Golden Globe Awards have always promoted that movies of all genres are equal here, but judging from the order of awards, this kind of slogan is pure nonsense.

is also an award in the film category, and the first to be awarded is still the musical comedy category, while the drama award is placed at the end for the finale.

Robert Downey Jr. finally won the Best Actor in a Musical Comedy with his outstanding performance in the movie "Sherlock Holmes".

When the winner of the Best Film Award, which is the heaviest musical comedy film, was announced, everyone at the scene couldn't help but be taken aback except for Song Zheng.

"The winner of the 67th Golden Globe Award for Best Musical Comedy Film was ~~~~~~~~~ "The Hangover". ”

When the award presenters read out the winner, a cheer suddenly rang out at the table in the corner of the venue, followed by a middle-aged man wearing rimless glasses and looking very gentle.

Song Zheng can imagine that when this award is awarded, how many people at the scene will have mixed feelings in their hearts.

Who would have thought that such a man who looks like Sven would make such a movie, how to describe it, there are probably only two words that are the most suitable and vulgar.

Is it really vulgar?

In Song Zheng's view, there is no distinction between vulgar and elegant movies at all, and whoever succeeds is the winner in life.

Of course, the success of a movie like "The Hangover" is indeed surprising.

If you talk about the most unexpected dark horse in the American film market in 2009, it is estimated that nine out of ten people will choose "The Hangover".

In the case of blockbusters such as "Transformers 2", "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince", "Twilight 2", and "Avatar", the performance of "The Hangover" at the box office is amazing.

While those blockbusters contributed a series of peculiar or magnificent visual spectacles, bringing unprecedented sensory enjoyment to the audience, the appearance of "The Hangover" allowed the audience to experience an ordinary pleasure and excitement in the interval of this enjoyment.

"The Hangover" doesn't cost much, but it has achieved very good box office results, and there are many reasons for this.

First of all, the way the story is told, the film as a whole is a flashback structure. I explained the situation on the wedding day, and then reverted back to two days ago to start the narrative.

During these two days, the four men went to Las Vegas for a bachelorette party, had a crazy night, woke up and faced all kinds of troubles, and finally solved them one by one. This part appears to be narrated in time, but it is also a flashback.

From four men drinking on the rooftop, jumping straight to the mess of the next morning. While the three men are searching for answers, looking for Doug, they are actually recounting what happened the night before, which is nothing more than a kind of deformed flashback. The use of such double flashbacks makes the film as a whole both layered and full of fun.

Just imagine, if this film is simply about four men coming to Las Vegas, playing crazy all night, and rushing back to the wedding, wouldn't it feel bland?

Secondly, Song Zheng believes that there is another point that is the most important, that is, the setting of suspense, although this is a comedy, the suspense in it always runs through the whole film.

The beginning of the film tells the audience that the groom was lost by his friends after the bachelorette party, what happened?

Then, after a night of crazy play, a series of problems appeared.

Why is there a tiger in the bathroom?

Why is Doug's mattress stuck in the hotel's sculptures?

Why did this group get a police car?

Why did Stu get married?

Why are they hunted down?

These "whys" are constantly being revealed, and new ones are constantly emerging, attracting the audience to watch them. The three men don't remember anything, which makes the perspective of the viewer, who is also completely unaware, overlap with the protagonists, and closely follow the plot.

Even the end of the film has a suspense, and the photo in that camera must have aroused the curiosity of many viewers, so that even if the film is over, the audience will still sit in a chair and watch the end credits.

In the end, it is the film that satisfies the psychological needs of ordinary people, and there is an impulse to go crazy in people's hearts, and the four men in the film do just that.

This aspect is epitomized in Stu's body, who is gentle on the surface, but in fact more crazy than anyone else. Especially the part where he scolds his fiancée at the end is even more happy.

They laugh wildly, scold like crazy, some vulgar, some derailed, but don't they make people a little envious and a little happy?

Therefore, the award for "The Hangover" is, in Song Zheng's view, completely deserved.

Sven Nan reluctantly stepped down with applause, and then it was time for the real highlight.
