After the Best Costume Award, the Oscar Organizing Committee specially inserted a link for young actors to take the stage. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
When 11-year-old Haley Osmond and 13-year-old Lindsay walked onto the stage from behind, the audience applauded until they stood behind the microphone stand prepared on the right side of the stage.
The applause stopped, and Haley Osmond looked back in confusion, and Lindsay immediately rolled her eyes, and the audience immediately burst into several loud laughs.
Then Lindsay patted Haley Osmond on the shoulder, pointed to the microphone in front of him, and then Xiao Zhengtai and Lori said crisply: "Good evening!"
Haley Osmond said: "I'm excited to be here. ”
Lindsay immediately answered, "Do you know what we usually call people like you?"
Haley Osmond shook his head with an "ignorant" look: "What?"
Lindsay nodded at the audience and said, "Fresh-Meat!"
Lindsay's words made the audience burst into laughter, and Haley Osmond tilted his little head: "You mean like Hillary Swank?"
"Hahaha-" The audience laughed even more.
After the audience laughed, Haley Osmond went on to say seriously: "Not only am I proud to be one of the youngest Oscar winners, but I ......"
At this time, Lindsay "suddenly" interrupted: "By the way, when I acted in my first movie, I was also 11 years old. By the way, !"
Lindsay's seemingly unintentional childish interruption made the audience laugh.
Haley Osmond turned his head to look at Lindsay and asked, "Did that movie make it an Oscar shortlist?"
The problem of poisonous tongue, combined with the innocent expression of Heley Osmond, achieves a perfect natural black!
This immediately broke out into thunderous laughter at the scene, and the laughter was mixed with cheerful applause, Lindsay's seemingly contrived, but in fact natural performance, and Haley Osmond's performance first suppressed and then raised, so that everyone couldn't help but secretly sigh that the back waves of the Yangtze River pushed the front waves.
"We are honored to be here to introduce you to these wonderful young actors. With the crisp voices of Lindsey and Haley Osmond, the big screen was lowered and the outstanding child stars of the North American film industry began to play on it!
Starting with Shirley Temple, from black-and-white films to the color era, outstanding child stars who have performed in films that can go down in history have appeared on the screen.
Many of them are instantly recognizable to Sid, watching the hero of "Home Alone" and Drew Barrymore from "E.T." appear in the picture. Sid couldn't help but be glad that he had saved Lindsay's little girl in the first place.
After the next few technical awards that were not nominated for "Earth Thunder", today's first major award has finally kicked off.
James Cobain, who won Best Supporting Actor last year, is Bruce Lee's best friend. The silver-haired old man proudly walked onto the stage and immediately attracted warm applause from the audience.
"Oh, it's great to be able to work with so many talented, sexy and charming women or girls!" Old Man Cobain drove as soon as he opened his mouth, which made everyone angry, and of course, Old Man Cobain did not forget to make fun of Lindsay, the "little girl".
"I can have the privilege of being close to one of them and awarding her the Golden Man for Best Supporting Actress. The following are the actresses nominated for Best Supporting Actress - "The Sixth Sense" Toni Clayter ......"
On the separated big screen, real-time images of the five candidates, including Lindsay, appeared on it, and in addition to Lindsay, the only person Sid really knew was Angelina Jolie, who was still very young at this time.
And Julie's display clip is a scene conversation between her and Winona. As for Lindsay, it happens to be the scene where she bargains with the shopkeeper - "I admire your tireless efforts. Whitebeard's shopkeeper smirked, "But you should know that I'm irresponsible about it. ”
"You're the custodian. Lindsay sat across from her and said with a calm smile, "If you opened a bank and the bank was robbed." You can't tell savers to go with the flow. ”
"Don't compare yourself to me, this world is already annoying. The shopkeeper pouted and said, "Secondly, you have overvalued the horse, at least two hundred dollars." How old are you?"
"I'm telling you," Lindsay leaned forward, "fiercely," and said, "My estimate is definitely low, and Judy is a good quality racehorse stallion." I've seen her jump over an eighth-level fence with a very heavy rider. I'm fourteen!"
After introducing each of the five candidates, Mr. Cobain quipped, "Do you know what you can't do? You can't lie about your age, Lindsay Lohan." ”
Well, because Lindsay is only 13 years old this year, she played a 14-year-old violent Lori in "Earth Thunder". It's really a "false declaration of age". The audience couldn't help but laugh.
Then Old Man Cobain opened the envelope and read: "The Oscar winner is—"
Sid felt Lindsay slam her hand on her hands, sweat pouring from her palms.
"Angelina Jolie!"
In a cheer that shook her eardrums, Julie, with long black hair, walked onto the stage with tears in her eyes.
Lindsay let go of Sid's hand and smiled and applauded, Sid turned his head to look at Nizi and touched her long hair before turning his head to applaud the winner.
The next awards, although they are not in series, but slowly, the crew of "Earth Thunder" found that the crew around them were read their names one by one, and they were ecstatic to step on the Oscar stage.
Best Sound Editing went to The Matrix, Best Art Direction went to Sleeping Hollow, and Best Cinematography went to American Beauty.
It wasn't until the second half of this year's Oscars that Kevin Spacey took the stage to present the Best Adapted Screenplay Award, "Thank you, it's up to me to present the Best Adapted Screenplay, I'm lucky enough to share this moment with my beautiful partner, but the whole world knows that she will have a new work coming out at any time." ”
"I can't ask her to climb the stairs unless she gets an Oscar, and she'll even climb up on her own hands. Kevin Spacey played with dry humor, making fun of his partner Annette Bening in "American Beauty" with a blank face. This caused a burst of laughter from the audience.
"So, Anne (Benin), even though you just sit there and watch me present the Oscars, I have to give it my all without you. The films nominated for the Best Adapted Screenplay Award are—"
Amid the laughter of the stars at the scene, there was a burst of applause in the auditorium as clips of the film, the text of the script, and the real-time camera avatars of the scriptwriters appeared on the big screen.
Among the selected films are "Miracle on the Green Mile" starring Hanks, "The Genius Praley" starring Matt Damon, and Sid's "Earth Thunder".
"The Oscar winner—" Kevin Spacey opened the envelope and pulled out the list.
Sid felt himself being held by Lindsay, and the strength seemed to be greater than when the Best Supporting Actress award was just announced?
"There's Always a Sun," by John Irving. ”
The release of this quasi-epic film run by Miramax and starring Tobey Maguire and Charlize Theron can also be described as a series of twists and turns, and the director of the first version died of an unexpected terminal illness in the process of preparation, which almost halted the project.
Later, with the help of many producers, the film was filmed and released.
Sid patted Lindsay's little hand holding him, and the two looked at each other and smiled, then applauded. Well, this is the Oscar after all, not the later Grammys, who won screenplay awards for two years in a row? That's almost impossible!
In fact, the next link, whether it is for Sid or the crew of "Earth Thunder", seems to have lost color and fun. However, Aunt Mei has been sitting here for decades!
What do we have to complain about?
After veteran actress Angelica Houston introduced "Earth Thunder", this year's Oscars finally ushered in the final, most critical and most concerned link.
The award for Best Actress presented by last year's actor Roberto Bernini, to everyone's surprise – well, almost everyone's expectation, "Hilary Swank – "Boys Don't Cry!!"
When Roberto Bernini read out the winners in Italian English, the audience erupted in thunderous applause, the short-haired Hilary Swank stood up calmly and kissed her husband, while Chloe Sevigny, the other heroine of "Boys Don't Cry", ran over to hug her.
In Sid's opinion, this year's Oscars have finally washed away a little, and the shadow of Gwyneth, the most watery queen in history last year, has been washed away.
Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived.
Gwyneth Paltrow next took the stage to present this year's Best Actor Award, "The shortlisted actors are—"
In fact, to be honest, several of the actors selected this year are obviously famous big names, "Denzel Washington of "Hurricane", Sean Penn of "Sweet and Humble", Russell Crowe of "The Insider", Kevin Spacey of "American Beauty...... "Of course," and Jeff Bridges of "Earth Thunder". ”
Although Jeff Bridges, known as "The Governor" selected by Sid, seems to be less famous than several other big names, he is also a famous veteran actor in Hollywood, he won his first Best Supporting Actor nomination as early as 1971, and later he won one Best Supporting Actor and one Best Actor nomination in succession.
Today he is nominated for the Oscar for Best Actor for the second time.
"The Oscars belong to—" Gwyneth pulled out the envelope, "Kevin Spacey, American Beauty!"
