Chapter 36: The New Queen
After the "Best Film Score", of course, it is the "Best Original Song Award".
The five shortlisted songs are Until... , May It Be from The Lord of the Rings, Come hat May from Moulin Rouge, There You'll Be from Pearl Harbor, and Lost Star from Begin Again.
After seeing that there was finally a film award, the movie stars and big names on the scene began to applaud, and unlike the Oscars, which reward singers, these original songs are still rewarded by their respective composers and lyricists.
Among them, the popular "Lost Star", the composers are Sid and Max Martin, and the lyricist is Sid alone. After five corresponding introductory clips, the award presenter took out a golden envelope, "The winner of the Golden Globe is ......"
He tore open the envelope and opened it: "Lost Star!" composers Max Martin and Sid Leonhardt, lyricist Sid Leonhardt. ”
There was thunderous applause in the auditorium, Sid and Max looked at each other, smiled, shrugged, and stood up, and walked to the podium together.
Lindsey and Amy Adams jumped up excitedly, and Jeremy and Benny congratulated Sid and Max.
While this is not a surprising result, if there is some controversy in the soundtrack category, there is no doubt that "Begin Again's Song Changes Your Life" has a leading position in songs.
This also made Sid's "talent" in making songs the first time that he was praised and affirmed by international awards.
Sid and Max receive the Golden Globe trophy from the presenters, which, unlike the Oscars, is a rectangular opal stone base with a globe around the film and is made of real 24-karat gold.
Therefore, it can indeed be called the "Golden Globe Award".
After Sid and Max received the trophy, Sid stood aside and stretched out his hand to signal Max to speak first.
"Okay, I'll ...... first," Max Martin stood in front of the microphone, "and when Sid told me let's go win two film awards, I said '!'"
Max's self-blackening immediately caused laughter in the hall, and Sid next to him also spread out his hands and shrugged his shoulders, and his funny appearance made the hall laugh again.
Then Max Martin also followed the initiation of the gourd painting scoop: "Thank you to the Hollywood Foreign Press Association for affirming us, and I want to thank Sid, both as a director and as a songwriter, he is a great partner." ”
Max Martin then stepped aside and motioned for Sid to step forward, and Sid walked over to the microphone.
"It was a real surprise. Sid smiled and said, "Actually, I didn't think about writing the songs in 'Begin Again' myself, but Max said, 'Since you have ideas, why don't you just write them.'" I can help you. That's where it all began. ”
"And I'm glad I've been spurred on by this guy, That it!" Sid said with a faint smile as he raised the trophy in his hand.
There was a flurry of applause in the room, and Sid and Max followed the hostess's instructions and walked out of the exit on the left side of the stage, where they were to be interviewed by the media while the ceremony continued.
After making the transition with a miniseries for Best Actor, today's awards ceremony finally came to the first heavyweight award - "Best Actress in a Musical Comedy"
When the award presenter Jodie Foster took the stage, people's attention was drawn back to the sound of music and applause.
The nominees for this year's award are all big names – Nicole Kidman from Moulin Rouge, Rishi Witherspoon from Legally Blonde, Renee Zellweger's "BJ's Single Diary", Amy Adams' "Begin Again" and Cate Blanchett's "The Perfect Thief".
When the presenters read out their names, the stars in the venue let out loud cheers, which were much more enthusiastic than when they won the series awards just now.
The two biggest candidates for this award are actually Nicole Kidman and Amy (Adams). Among them, "Moulin Rouge" is known as the movie that best represents Nicole Kidman's acting skills, and for Nicole Kidman, who is always called a "vase" after her debut, after Tom Cruise's divorce, she urgently needs a breakthrough in her career.
"Moulin Rouge" now looks likely to be a major turning point in her acting career, just last year, just a year after her divorce from Tom Cruise, Nicole made a commercial breakthrough with "Island Cry" and won even greater praise for acting and awards for "Moulin Rouge".
And "Begin Again, the song changes lives" with the soothing effect of the post-911 generation, has been the biggest dark horse this year since it was released on a small scale, because if "A Beautiful Mind" and "Moulin Rouge" still have some elements of "a blind cat hitting a dead mouse".
Then Sid's specially created "Begin Again Song Changes Life" can be described as a "right medicine" designed to soothe people's hearts, and under the trend of the times, other films this year are dwarfed in front of him.
And Amy's role as a "tsundere" British folk female singer in it left a deep impression on all film critics.
When Jodie Foster reads Amy, she can't help but straighten up and give a perfect smile to the camera, and both Sid and Jeremy know that this is a small gesture that she only has when she is nervous.
Jeremy asked softly, "Hey, nervous?"
Seeing that Sid and Lindsay both looked over, Amy nodded slightly, "A little, suddenly a little nervous." ”
Lindsay stretched out his hand to hold Amy, and Sid also said encouragingly, "I have faith in you." ”
After the names of the five candidates were read, Jodie Foster took out the golden envelope and opened it, "The winner of the Golden Globe is ...... "Begin Again Songs Change Lives." ”
"Oh——!!" The roaring cheers suddenly rang out, and Lindsay jumped up holding Amy's hand, Amy was still a little confused, and her boyfriend Darren Ligallo kissed her cheek excitedly.
Until her boyfriend helped her up, Amy still looked helpless, Sid and the others also stood up, applauding and congratulating Amy, Jeremy and Sid hugged Amy who was about to cry.
Then, at Sid's beckoning, her boyfriend Darren Ligallo helped Amy all the way through the crowd to the podium, and many celebrities congratulated him on the way.
