Chapter 80: Ah Tang begins

After several heavyweight directors appeared on the TV screen one by one, several of this year's hot big stars also appeared one by one - Denzel Washington, Russell Crowe, Amy Adams, Nicole Kidman, Rachel Weisz.

Although the cameraman's camera roams between the seats, most of the people applaud while actually looking up at the screen in the upper left of the stage.

Because outside the lens, there will be star pictures taken by photographers, and the live broadcast room is also particular about switching pictures.

Whether it is the popular fried chicken that has risen recently, or the veteran who has returned to the stage, being able to give a close-up before the official opening of the Oscars is definitely more effective than any publicity, and it can also see the coffee position and popularity of the stars present.

So, I really can't help but let everyone present remember it.

Of course, even if you don't remember it, maybe other photographers and live studio directors like you?

Sid, who had already started chatting with Jeremy next to him, was captured in the picture with Jeremy again, and Sid had to smile while pointing at Jeremy beside him with an exaggerated expression.

And Jeremy is

The two played on the spot

After greeting the veteran conductors and orchestra who played live, the thick curtain was raised, and the announcer should be raised from time to time: "Everyone, welcome Tom Cruise, who opened the remarks for us. ”

Dressed in a black suit, the handsome Tom walked out with a smile amid the applause of the live symphony orchestra and celebrity audience, his pace was not slow, even Sid couldn't help but secretly applaud.

Although Tom Tom has always been unpopular at the Oscars, this year, in order to show the factor of bridging and unity, the academy actually directly let this well-deserved Hollywood faΓ§ade to open, which is indeed a very wise move.

"When the brilliant director Billy White was asked, 'What can be done to make a film last in the hearts of the audience?' and his answer was simple, 'Magic!'"

"We're here today, or at home to watch this year's awards ceremony, because we all have a feeling for the film, and this little bit of magic has embellished our lives. ”

"You always remember where you are, the movie theater you went to, the popcorn you ate, the people you went with. ”

"In 1968, my family and I were living in Ottawa, Canada, and I saw Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey. ”

In fact, the opening of the Oscars rarely pretends to be a face, especially since the beginning of the new millennium, the viewing tastes led by rebellious young audiences have begun to change the previous style.

But this year's Oscars, opened by Tom Cruise, and they also talked about serious topics like "2001: A Space Odyssey", which can't help but make people feel that this year is different after 911.

"I can't help but think, what is life, what is space, what is existence?"

"At that time, I was only 6 years old. ”

Well, the text written by the screenwriters of the awards ceremony for Tom still has to be inadvertently funny.

To the chuckle of the audience, Tom Cruise continued, "Although I was young, I was quite an astronaut!"

Another burst of laughter, it seems that although the clouds of 911 are still there, the entertainment of Oscar and Hollywood has begun to hold back the power of the desolation in their hearts.

"My family moved a lot, and I watched Jaws in Louisville, Kentucky, and then Apocalypse Now in New Jersey, and Bull in Pennsylvania, and I knew I really wanted to be an actor. ”

"The vocals go up and down, and the movies have always given me comfort. ”

"What happened last September changed us, and an actor friend asked me, 'What are we doing? Is it important that we, what we do?'

Sure enough, although Sid did not participate in the Oscar rehearsal, a serious topic like 911 is really a boulder that is impossible to avoid, not to mention that it has only been 6 months since September last year.

"Let's ...... on this night To spread the joy and magic that cinema brings to us, I dare say, this joy is more intense than ever!"

Although Tom's speech was written by the screenwriter, it was indeed unusual and meaningful to be at the scene, in front of an almost global audience.

As soon as his words fell, Sid couldn't help but applaud, and all the audience who acted with him, at this moment, whether it was celebrities, or people behind the scenes, or the real 'ordinary audience' upstairs, they couldn't help but applaud strongly, but no one spoke.

As the saying goes, whether a nation has a future or not depends on the reaction of the people and elites when it encounters a crisis.

But in fact, after Sid returned to the second and came into contact with him, he found that these Yankees, who seemed to advocate "chaotic" freedom, had strong discipline in their bones.

"A scene, a gesture, or even eye contact between two characters can transcend boundaries, break down barriers, dispel prejudices, or simply make us laugh. ”

"Let's all come together and feel the magic of that. But that's just my impression. ”

"Tonight, we're going to hear from you. ”

"Documentary filmmaker Morris travels across the United States to interview fans and cultural people – what does cinema mean to you?"

"So, let this gorgeous stage extend into your home, maybe even after you are on the stage...... It will also answer the question – what does cinema mean to you?"

"So sit down and let's talk about it in detail. ”

Maybe the stars already know more or less about the opening of tonight's Oscars, but for the majority of viewers in front of the TV, they really didn't expect this year's Oscars to open in such a way.

Hollywood and the Oscars seem to have washed off their gorgeous coats overnight, showing their simple and concerned side to all audiences, expressing their concern and sincerity to everyone on this special night and special time.

In the end, Tom smiled and said the classic opening line of the year: "Tonight is Oscar night!"

Then he bowed slightly and turned to step down to the applause of the audience.

The lights dimmed, the big curtain opened left and right, and a big screen was already waiting there.

An unsightly uncle with glasses in a fisherman's hat appeared, "Every time I see a good movie, it reminds me of all the good movies I have seen before." ”
