Nicole had already noticed the strange gazes around her, and when she heard Eric say this, she quickly took the initiative to let go of her hand, and she also regretted that she shouldn't have seen Elizabeth's provocative eyes and lost her temper because of this, which would only embarrass Eric. Taking her seat, Nicole offered an apologetic look at Eric. Elizabeth, on the other hand, seemed to have the upper hand, her chin raised slightly, and she snorted proudly.

Eric patted Nicole gently and soothingly, before turning around and leaning into Elizabeth's ear and whispering: "Little girl, don't forget what kind of place this is, if you dare to let me get off the stage, I won't let you get out of bed, don't believe you try it." ”

Elizabeth noticed Eric's small action of appeasing Nicole, she was already a little surprised, and when she heard this, a small flame in her heart burst out, and she was about to have a seizure, when she saw Eric's extremely strict expression, she immediately shrank her neck, muttered something like eccentricity, and her face also brought a little grievance.

Seeing that the little wild cat was tamed, Eric did not hesitate to sweeten dates, and reached out to pat the back of Elizabeth's hand on his thigh.

Elizabeth turned her head angrily and made an expression that I wouldn't eat this set, but instead of shaking off Eric's big hand, she raised a finger and scratched it on Eric's palm, like some kind of hint when dating between men and women, and at the same time, an unconscious smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

There are no secrets in Hollywood circles, and everyone knows about Eric and several women.

Originally, they noticed the confrontation between the two girls, and many people were still waiting to see Eric's jokes, but they calmed down the two girls when they saw Eric three or two times. You don't even have to change some small movements. It was used on two women at the same time. couldn't help but admire Eric's teaching methods, and Cage, who was sitting in front of Eric's left, also gave Eric a thumbs up covertly.

After a brief hiccup, the lights in the auditorium dimmed.

Soon, a message from the announcer appeared on the stage: "Host of the 63rd Academy Awards, Billy Kristol, please." ”

As soon as the words fell, a tense symphony sounded in the auditorium, and some people subconsciously turned their eyes to the crew of "The Silence of the Lambs", with a look of surprise on their faces. Because this symphony is the soundtrack to which Professor Hannibal was escorted to the councillors 'fully armed'.

The Oscars opened with the soundtrack of a horror film, which had never happened before, and the live filmmakers who received the same nomination as "The Silence of the Lambs" had a bad feeling in their hearts.

Before too many people could figure out more meaning, the curtain opened on the stage, and two men in white who looked like doctors pushed the proportions of Hannibal's mask on their faces. Christo walked out, and the scene burst into laughter.

After Billy Crystal was put down from the cart, he rolled his eyes and glanced around, then walked off the stage with the soundtrack that still didn't stop, and came to Anthony Hopkins, who was sitting in the aisle, and extended his hand to him.

Anthony Hopkins stood up, and Billy Christo motioned for the band to stop. He said to Anthony Hopkins, "I've got a couple of Oscars for dinner, would you like to come along?"

Hear this joke. There was laughter again.

Anthony Hopkins doesn't have the funny talent of Billy Kristol, so he can only echo: "Anytime." ”

Eric sat in the back row of Anthony Hopkins, waiting for Billy Crystal to turn back to the stage and the camera moved away, before he whispered to Elizabeth next to him, "The suspense is a little less now." ”

Elizabeth participated in the Oscars with Julia last year, and the last host was also Billy Christo, that time Billy Crystal just walked to the stage in a regular manner, although the changes of this session were intentional by the Oscar organizing committee in order to enliven the atmosphere, but at the same time it also reflected a kind of trend of this Oscar, Elizabeth did a lot of research on the Oscars in order to publicize the Oscars a few months ago, of course, she knew what this meant, nodded a little excitedly, and said: " I'm ready to celebrate the Gong Sect, so you'll come with me later, right?"

"Of course, but is there only the Qinggong faction?"

Elizabeth looked at Eric's undisguised look of 'inviting merit', her face was slightly red, and she said in a low voice: "You villain, what kind of bad idea are you fighting?"

Eric was about to continue to tease the girl, when he saw the camera sweeping over again, so he had to sit upright.

On stage, Billy Crystal had already taken off his mask, regained his serious appearance, looked at the audience, and said, "Wow, it's another Oscar, and they're bringing me here again." ”

Amid the laughter, Billy Crystal said: "Everyone seems to be having a good time tonight, so, let's put it this way, no matter who ends up with the little golden man, Saddam Hussein is dead." I think everyone is very grateful to the U.S. soldiers who are fighting around the world......"

As soon as this sentence fell, the audience applauded very actively.

After the applause stopped slightly, Billy Crystal immediately made up for what he had just said: "...... Except for Panama. ”

The laughter rang out again, and in the early months of last year, the United States brazenly launched an invasion of this small country in order to maintain its vested interests in the Panama Canal.

Although it is only a short sentence, it profoundly reflects Hollywood's consistent political correctness and anti-war stance. On the one hand, Hollywood is a staunch supporter of American interests, and even if the government's purpose for waging war is not very open, Hollywood will not go against the whole country, just like when the Iraq War, which most people in the primitive air opposed, the Oscars were held very low-key. On the other hand, Hollywood is also a gathering place for anti-war activists, and even if the government has launched a war, Hollywood's anti-war stance will not change in any way.

Billy Crystal then teased Madonna, who was about to perform live at this year's Oscars, and then began a thunderous skewer of songs about the nominated films.

Eric didn't like this session very much, but it may be that the Oscar organizing committee felt that Billy Kristol's way of giving a brief introduction to each nominated film would be retained, so he would keep it every time he hosted the Oscars.

Billy Crystal finishes the opening interaction. The ceremony entered the main part. As a convention. This year's Oscars still opened with the award of Best Supporting Actor.

There is no suspense, this year's best supporting actor corner is Joe Pesci who participated in Martin Scorsese's "Goodfellas". A series of minor awards followed, during which Nicole also left Eric's side once to present the award to the winner of the best photography.

I don't know if it's deliberate, the awards ceremony lasted for a whole hour, and none of the nominations for the award won by the most watched "The Silence of the Lambs" this year have been touched, but Eric did not report any expectations for "Ghost Love", and unexpectedly won a Best Soundtrack award.

Minutes and seconds passed. Judie Foster and Anthony Hopkins took the stage together to present the Best Screenplay Award, which finally brought the ceremony to a climax.

After a brief introduction to the nominees, Jodie Foster opened the envelope for Best Original Screenplay and approached Anthony Hopkins.

"The Oscar winner for Best Original Screenplay is ......" Anthony Hopkins glanced at the audience, paused for a second, and then said, "'The Ghost is Not Over.'" ”

The applause rang out, Bruce Joy Robin, who was sitting in the back of the seat, stood up excitedly, the female companion hugged him, and then walked briskly to the crew of "Ghost Love", another round of hugs and handshakes. Eric also stood up and shook hands with Bruce Joy Robin through Nicole.

Although it was because of the competition for the script. The two had some unpleasantness, but neither of them would mention it again at this time, after all, both sides had gained enough benefits.

After the Best Original Screenplay award, Jodie Foster and Anthony Hopkins did not step down, and directly began to introduce the nominations for Best Adapted Screenplay, and then Jodie Foster read the name of "The Silence of the Lambs", and in the applause, the camera swept to the audience, and fixed on a somewhat balding middle-aged man with glasses, who was the screenwriter of "The Silence of the Lambs" Ted Tully.

Eric smiled and watched the crew of "The Silence of the Lambs" on the upper right get up to greet Ted Tully, thinking that there was nothing wrong with him, but after shaking hands with Elizabeth, Ted Tully looked at Eric, smiled and reached over.

Although it was a little abrupt, Eric quickly stood up and took Ted Tully's hand.

"Thank you, Mr. Williams, and I hope we can work together in the future," Ted Tully said quickly, nodding to Eric before heading back to the stage.

The handshake between the two was recorded on camera, and after Ted Tully left, the cameraman with the camera still gave Eric a meaningful close-up.

And then the award process seems to have become very weird and lively, Whoopi Goldberg seemed normal when he won the award for Best Supporting Actress for "The Ghost Is Not Gone", but then every time "The Silence of the Lambs" won an award, the winners did not forget to say hello to Eric when they hugged and celebrated with the crew Elizabeth and others, and even Jodie Foster, who won Best Actress again, shook Eric's hand with a smile after hearing the good news. Everyone who saw this scene had a certain sense of absurdity, as if some strange people had mixed in.

After watching Jonathan Demi excitedly walk to the stage when he won the best director, "The Silence of the Lambs", which has already won four awards for best director, best actor, best actress and best adapted screenplay, is no doubt about winning the best picture.

Elizabeth looked at Jonathan Demmy, who was saying his acceptance speech on the stage, and after thanking him for a long time, he also specifically mentioned Eric's name, and then remembered the scene that just happened, Elizabeth couldn't help but say to Eric: "It's over, maybe everyone will give you the credit, or wait for you to receive the Best Picture Award." ”

Eric patted Elizabeth lightly on the thigh: "Why bother what others think, I know your efforts for this movie, so you have a clear conscience for this award." ”

Elizabeth was obviously very interested in this sentence, but she was still a little stubborn: "You know what it is for." ”

When Barbra Streisand walked to the podium to introduce the Best Picture nomination, although many people on the scene had already confirmed the results, they couldn't help but look at the crew of "The Silence of the Lambs" in different places.

Let a woman do the best picture, as a hint, then the winner is likely to be a woman too, or at least one woman among the winners, and among the producers nominated for best picture this year, only Elizabeth of the crew of "The Silence of the Lambs" is a woman.

“…… The Best Picture nominees are "Silent Ask the Sky", "The Godfather 3", "Reversal of Fate", "The Silence of the Lambs" and "Goodfellas", then, the Oscar winner is," Barbra Streisand opened the envelope in her hand and glanced at it, looked up at the crew of "The Silence of the Lambs", and smiled: "The winners are "The Silence of the Lambs", Jonathan Demmy, Elizabeth Murdoch. ”

The music sounded at the same time with thunderous applause, and not only the crew of "The Silence of the Lambs", but also many people around stood up to congratulate this side. After all, the movie "The Silence of the Lambs" is good enough, and there is not much controversy about winning the award, not to mention the identity of Elizabeth, which is enough for most of the people present to stand up and show their goodwill, although many people will make fun of the nickname of the little princess Fox in private, but at this time, no one has the backbone to pretend to be high.

Elizabeth also stood up excitedly, her face was a little rosy because of the excitement, perhaps because she was too happy, and the girl gave Eric a hug without hesitation, kissed Eric on the cheek, and then hugged and shook hands with the others, and then she was surrounded by Jonathan Demi on the podium.

Jonathan Demmi had just said his acceptance speech, and he also understood that he was able to get this second golden man completely to cover for Elizabeth, so he just said a few words casually and handed the microphone to Elizabeth.

The girl picked up the microphone, looked at the dense crowd in the audience, sorted out the words, and said: "It's amazing, it's a great honor to be able to win this award, this is the biggest encouragement for me, first of all, I want to thank the Oscar judges for being able to present this award to me, and secondly, I want to thank everyone in the crew, Jonathan, Judy, Anthony, and many other people in the crew, as well as my father, mother, sister and brother." ”

Elizabeth said this, her tone paused, swept the audience, revealed a slightly playful look, and said with a slightly ruddy face: "Okay, look at the way you look forward to it......" (To be continued......)
