Chapter 55: Oscar

"Attention, it's coming to you soon. w-w-w.lwxs520.c-o-m。 Pacino applauded the Independence Day team for the best visuals, and said to Theolod next to him, "If you feel like you're having trouble fidgeting, that's normal." ”

"Independence Day! I was busy filming and didn't have time to go to the cinema to watch movies, so I'm afraid I can only wait to buy DVDs in the future...... Oh Al, what were you talking about? Theolod was annoyed that he didn't have time to go to the cinema to relax, when he heard Pacino seem to be saying something to him, and he couldn't help but look at him with some confusion.

"The next award is Best Supporting Actor!" Amid the cacophony of applause, Pacino had to raise his voice.

"Yes, Best Supporting Actor, I'm more optimistic about Little Cuba Godin." Theolod said.

His reaction made Pacino laugh: "Everyone thought you should be nervous, but you turned out to be the calmest one, you should look over there, William Messi is starting to shake his legs." ”

Theorod looked over, yes, one of the Oscar nominees for Best Supporting Actor, the actor of Jerry Larigard in "Ice Storm", and William H Messi, who was across the aisle from Theorod, was shaking his legs a little nervously at the moment, but because it was a little far away, Theorod couldn't see the expression on the other party's face clearly.

Once upon a time, he would have this nervous reaction as well, until after he didn't care at all. Theolod couldn't help but sigh a little, and he looked for the position of the other nominees, but there were too many people in the theater, and it was the back of the head at a glance.

As the presenter of the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, Diane West took a letter and walked onto the awards stage. She was the winner of the 67th Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress, and at the age of forty-nine, she stood in front of the microphone in a long black dress with the grace and elegance characteristic of an old woman.

"Great movies always gather great actors, if the hero and heroine of a movie are the backbone of the big tree in this movie, then its supporting actors and heroines are the branches and leaves that make the branches of the big tree flourish and block the sun for the shaders. Not only can they make the movie richer and fuller, but they can also make the plot more resonant, and they are an indispensable part of a movie. Diane West smiled as he looked at the black pressure below against a group of many stars.

"The nominees for Best Supporting Actor at the 69th are, Armin MΓΌller Starr, "Shining Style."

The big screen behind Diane West began to play a clip of Starr in "Shining Style", and then the camera panned to Starr, who was smiling and applauding himself.

"Little Cuba Godin, Mr. Sweetheart."

"James Woods, 'Mississippi Murders.'"

"Theolod Recht, Fear of the First Degree."

Looking at Allen, who instantly changed from a little sheep to a big bad wolf on the screen to suppress Will, and at the end of the film, looking at the camera with a strange and contemptuous smile and playfully say "", Theolod applauded himself very calmly, and even the gentle smile on his face did not become so excited by this.

Gregory behind him stepped forward and pinched his shoulder, but Theorod just turned his head and winked at him: "You should be proud, director." ”

"If you can win the award, I will be even prouder!" Gregory said.

"Why do I think you sound so familiar? Oh, it seems like you said something like that at the Golden Globes, how do you say that? 'I'm even more proud if you get an Oscar nomination'? ”

"you, boy, you're playing tricks before the winner is revealed." Gregory scolded with a laugh.

When Diane West pronounced the name of the last nominee, William H. Macy, she slowly opened the envelope and paused for a few seconds before approaching the microphone and revealing the winner: "Little Cuba Godin, Mr. Sweetheart!" Congratulations, Mr. Tidwell! ”

Tidwell refers to Rod Tidwell, the character of Cuba Godin Jr. in Mr. Sweetheart.

In a corner a little further away from Theorod, a cheer erupted, and the winner of the prize, Cuba Godin Jr., seemed very happy and surprised, Theorod could not see clearly, but he could see the excitement and disbelief on the black brother's face from the big screen. Theolod sat still, smiling and clapping and congratulating each other, his soft gaze as if he were watching...... A junior who has worked hard to be recognized.

Although this kind of vicissitudes of life similar to seeing through the red dust is a little weird on a nineteen-year-old ghost, but seeing that Theolod really didn't have any hope of winning the award, and didn't take Oscar too seriously, Pacino couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then he felt that something was wrong, I don't know whether it was the relieved look at him, or not taking Oscar seriously.

After the Best Supporting Actor was revealed, Oscar night continued. Pacino, who was next to Theolod, left his place in the middle of the party. The presenter of the Best Actress award, he must leave the audience at this time and go backstage to prepare.

Before leaving, Pacino also patted Theolod on the shoulder, and said to him half-seriously and half-jokingly: "Later, at the dinner at the end of the awards ceremony, I hope you don't run around, kid, I don't want you to be in that situation again, don't blame me for not finding your people when the time comes...... Can you do it alone? ”

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm in a good mood right now. But I'll have to call Gray when you're gone, and I'm afraid I'll easily fall asleep if I don't have anyone to talk to. ”

"Then you can be the first star to fall asleep at the Oscars, and if you can't get the best supporting actor, it's not bad to get the best sleep." Pacino teased, and then left the auditorium under the guidance of the staff on the side.

For the next hour or so, Theolod spent the next hour chatting with Gregory, and he was secretly relieved when he saw the old fellow Pacino on stage. The Best Actress award is usually given in the penultimate one, and after the award is over, there is only one Best Picture left, and then the long award ceremony can finally be over.

After that, it was finally time for dinner! God knows how hungry he is now, hungry enough to eat three roast suckling pigs! What the? What food at the Oscar dinner can only be seen but not touched? Tsk, who cares about that stubble?

So, after presenting the award, Pacino watched the rest of the ceremony backstage, and when he was led into the dinner hall by the staff, he saw Theolod at a glance. Yes, this time he really didn't stand at the door in a daze like the last Golden Globe Awards, and he didn't run around, because his range of activities was obvious, which was the U-shaped buffet table.

Pacino suddenly felt relieved that he didn't know whether to worry about this phenomenon. Although he was surprised that a tall and thin figure like Theorod could hold so much food on the set, he never took the issue too seriously, and it wasn't until the DVD release of "First Degree Fear" and countless Theorod fans sent food to the set that Pacino realized that something was wrong.

He still has a few bags of snacks distributed to him by Theorod in his house, and he remembers that his expression could be described as "painful and love".

But on the contrary, this kid seems to have cultivated the skill of "even if I am eating, but when I am chatting with you, you will never be able to ignore my respect and sincerity for you", even if he chats with the people around him while eating, his body seems to be wrapped in a layer of elegant temperament, especially his gentle eyes that always contain inexplicable ambiguous feelings, when they look at you, you will never be able to move your attention to other places......

Only when he's eating, of course. Presumably to avoid making others feel disrespected, Theolod's ability to use his charm and hormones to divert the attention of the person he is talking to is simply cultivated to the extreme...... Maybe there is also the racial talent bonus of Italians, you must know that Italians, both men and women, are a group of passionate and romantic love kings and little queens.

"Theo, what are you talking about with this beautiful lady?" Pacino took a glass of champagne from the waiter who passed by him, and walked over to Theolod, who was reluctant to leave the table even a step. Theolod is chatting with Frances McDorman, the first time they've met since they parted on the set of "First Degree of Fear," but Frances's reason for appearing here is "Ice Storm," where she won Best Actress.

"Oh, Pacino, we're meeting again." Apparently she was impressed by Pacino's address to her, and a smile appeared on Frances' face, "I'm honored that I can take the trophy from you." ”

"And I'm honored to present an award to a wonderful actress, and I love your performance in 'Ice Blood,' Ms. McDonnell."

"Really?" Getting the praise from the old drama bone, Frances seemed very happy, "Actually, I have always wanted to cooperate with you, but unfortunately my luck is not as good as Theo." ”

"But this time it's different." Theolod smiled, he had just finished eating a bacon chicken roll, and he was still holding a toothpick in his hand, so he naturally pulled the toothpick in the direction of Frances, for some reason he matched his yuppie outfit today, it had a different taste, "Luck will always favor a beautiful lady with strength." ”

"That's right." Pacino handed Frances the champagne that he had never drunk at all, "I believe it will be my luck to work with a beautiful lady like you." ”

"Oh, you can both win the Oscar." Frances, who was a little embarrassed, took a sip of champagne in disguise, "If I continue to talk to you, I think my sisters will be jealous, forgive me for missing me." ”

After seeing Frances leave, Theolod picked up another chicken roll on his plate, elegantly but quickly put it into his mouth, and said to Pacino, "She has a boyfriend, and her boyfriend has a brother." ”

"I know."

Theolod put the toothpick aside, picked up another glass of orange juice, thought of something, looked at Pacino, and had a little more teasing in his eyes: "Actually, you haven't watched "Ice Storm" at all, and you don't know who they are before giving Frances the award, right?" ”

"Who knows?" Pacino shrugged his shoulders and said to Theorod, "Okay, put down your food, I'm glad to see you so alive and well, but I'll have to introduce you to some friends, I hate to admit it, but in Hollywood, the more friends the better." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Do you have to go? Theolod reluctantly glanced at the small cake on the side.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Yes. ”
