The camera followed everything, and Ang Lee couldn't help but clench his fists, this is the first award ever won by the other side of the ocean as a national Oscar, and it is a real zero breakthrough!

It's no wonder that the crew of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and the auditorium of the temple are so overjoyed by Chinese celebrities from all over the world.

Sid and the crew of "Juno" also smiled and applauded.

And such a last-class award, of course, it is impossible to give the winners too much time to speak, after Tim Yip has just thanked his parents and director Ang Lee, the symphony orchestra's music sounds, which is the signal to interrupt the speech.

Who said that everyone at the Oscars is equal, isn't this the best proof?

And after this art direction award, it was Nicolas Cage who awarded this year's Best Supporting Actress to an actress who had never heard of a movie that Sid had never heard of, and this supporting actress was bored and thanked a lot of people, and fell to Sid's yawn.

Later, Russell Crowe presented the "Best Editing" award, and Ben Stiller presented the "Best Live Action Short Film" and "Best Short Animation".

Among them, Steven Soderbergh's "Drug Network" finally got them off to a good start today with the "Best Editing Award".

Because the Best Editing Award and the Best Cinematography Award have always been closely linked to Best Picture and Best Director, the award of "Drug Network" also boosted the morale of Steven Soderbergh's right half.

After a song performance by singer Sting, today's first Best Picture finalist, "Never Compromise", was finally introduced.

The five films nominated for the Oscar for Best Picture will be presented by special celebrity guests during the regular awards ceremony, which will continue throughout the ceremony.

"Never Compromise" tells the story of Eileen, a divorced single mother who has failed in her life, and while working in a law firm, she accidentally discovers a major environmental pollution incident, which has caused a series of cancers in the residents of a small town, but behind this incident is a huge multinational group covering up their mistakes.

Such a seemingly unwinnable civil lawsuit, but a single mother Erin, who had no legal experience and did not even go to college, led the residents of the town to win, the largest civil compensation case in the history of the United States.

While the inspirational story is a little cliché, the plot is not cliché, with excerpts on the big screen showing Erin Brockwicz, played by Julia Roberts, after angrily scolding a group of lawyers at a large corporation.

When a female lawyer on the other side picked up a water cup and was about to drink water, she said, "By the way, your water is specially prepared by us, and it is all drawn from the river in the town." I don't think you mind, since you've said that the discharge from that river has no conclusive evidence that it causes cancer. ”

The lawyer on the other side was so frightened that he put down the water glass and "raised his hands to surrender".

After the introduction of "Never Compromise", Penelope Cruze presented the "Best Costume Design Award", of course, the real suspense lies in the duel between "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and "Gladiator", one of the two is the exotic style of the ancient oriental country, and the other is the style of the orthodox Roman Empire in Europe and the United States.

In the end, Penelope Cruze revealed the answer: "The winner of the Oscar is "Gladiator"!"

In the applause of the star audience, the female designer of "Gladiator" walked on the stage, which is also the first award that "Gladiator" finally won today, which seems a little long overdue for "Gladiator", which has been nominated the most before.

After that, it was not the presenters or performers who took the stage, but the current Academy Academy Dean Bob Raimi, the dean who made two nominations for Sid in the Best Short Film Award two years ago, when Ali Emmanuel made a special public relations officer two years ago.

This year is also the time when he is about to leave office, and Sid still has a good impression of this dean, who in a sense, has a "grace of knowing" to him.

Therefore, he did not hesitate to applaud his speech.

After a humorous speech, Bob Raimi stepped down.

And the next way to take the stage today is the first, well, the second important award - the Best Supporting Actor award, is Angelina Jolie in a white men's suit.

The five inductees are all from Willem Dafoe in "The Phantom of the Vampire", Jeff Bridges, who worked with Sid on "Thunder of the Earth", Albert Finney, who played opposite Julia Roberts in "Uncompromising", and Jaaquin Phoenix, who played the sinister and vicious emperor in "Gladiator".

And, of course, the most vocal of the awards, Benicio de Toro from Drug Network.

Because several other opponents, who are either older or younger, have either won the Oscar, or their acting skills are too young to take on big responsibilities, it can almost be said that Benicio de Toro of "Drug Network" was regarded by all the media as an undoubted hit before the Oscars.

And Angelina Jolie's revealed answer is: "Benicio de Toro, Drug Network!"

Thunderous applause rang out, Soderbergh's right half cheered, and Benicio walked briskly onto the stage after hugging and greeting director Soderbergh.

Today's Oscars are close to half, the previous hit "Gladiator" only won one award, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is also one, but Soderbergh's "Drug Network" won two awards in succession without moving, as for Sid's "Juno"?

Sorry, Sid hasn't opened their doors today!haha.

In the following, the "Best Sound Effects" and "Best Sound Editing", which were obviously no bright spots, and the award presenters also mocked them to their heart's content, were won by "Gladiator" and another little-known film, respectively.

After that, it is an oriental-style performance based on "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", which is also the first pure oriental-style performance program in the history of the Oscars, which is a large-scale performance program that combines traditional Chinese culture with Peking Opera, martial arts, and dance.

There is nothing new in this performance itself, but after incorporating too many things, Sid always feels a little nondescript, but the flying dance of Hanging Weiya looks quite innovative.

After that, Julia Roberts, the biggest favorite of this year's Oscars, took the stage to present the "Best Cinematography Award", because this is also an important technical award related to Best Director and Best Picture, so many people are quite concerned.
