47. Chapter 47

After the premiere of "Zombie Bride", on social networks, many media people were interested in this Tim. Burton's new film scored a lot of money, and judging from the scheduling rate achieved by American theaters, the box office will not be much worse.

However, compared to the movie "Zombie Bride", some gossip news about the stars is the root of the love of these magazines.

The Hollywood Reporter featured Elissa. Serena and Anne. Hathaway and Kayla. Knightley's photo on the red carpet at the premiere made headlines.

Elisa stood in the middle, and Anne. Hathaway and Kayla. Knightley is on both sides, three actresses, each with their own strengths, even if Elisa is a few years younger than the other two, but in terms of momentum, they are not lost to the experienced women on the red carpet.

Such three actresses are lined up, which is enough to attract everyone's attention.

The report speculated that Elisa should have been with Anne when she was filming "Brokeback Mountain". Hathaway has a good relationship, and the two were photographed going out to shop for goods like sisters. Knightley and Anne. Hathaway has a very good personal relationship, and in this way, the female stars with the most powerful development momentum in Hollywood are actually in a small group.

The report analyzes the relationship between them with a lot of enthusiasm. Hathaway and Elisa. Serena has attracted much attention because of the recent "Brokeback Mountain" won the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival, and they are also supporting actresses in the film, will they tear up the relationship between friends in the next few film festivals and make it unhappy because of the nomination.

But in fact, as early as halfway through filming, Ang Lee considered the issue of nominations, which person's name to apply for the Best Supporting Actress competition.

If there was a little wavering in front of Anne and Elisa at the beginning, but after the addition of the play, there is no doubt that the character played by Elisa is more likely to win the award.

Annie. Of course, Hathaway also knows this truth, if she is nominated, compared with several other films, she has only half the chance of winning the award, but Elisa is different.

Hollywood seems to have found out that good luck is coming to this young girl.

With "Brokeback Mountain", which was not favored by everyone at the beginning, Elisa. Serena was nominated for Best Supporting Actress at the 11th Critics' Choice Awards and the New Yorker Film Critics Circle Awards.

At this time of year, there are always a lot of miscellaneous awards coming out.

Among so many "association awards", the only ones that really have reference value are -

-- The New York Film Critics Circle Awards, the Los Angeles Film Critics Circle Awards, and the National Film Critics Circle Awards are the vane of the Oscars.

Although the Los Angeles Film Critics Association Awards and the National Film Critics Association Awards have not yet announced the list of nominees, the nominations of the New York Film Critics Association are also very indicative.

The New York Film Critics Association Awards were established in New York, and it is the most prestigious and influential award in the United States with the longest history.

Almost as soon as the list of nominees came out, everyone was paying attention and discussing the competition for candidates.

The primary membership of the New York Film Critics Circle Awards is made up of professional film critics from Time, Entertainment Weekly, Rolling Stone, People and The New York Times.

Its style has always been known for being "daring" and prefers avant-garde films, which is why it can favor "Brokeback Mountain".

In addition to Elisa being nominated for Best Supporting Actress, the crew of "Brokeback Mountain" also won three nominations: Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Actor.

This film, which was popular in the industry at the beginning of filming, has now become unparalleled.

"Brokeback Mountain" won the award at this year's film festival, and as of November alone, Ang Lee has won the Best Director Award six times from the Film Industry Association and local film critics associations.

This has to be a little embarrassing.

After getting the nomination, Anne. Hathaway and Kayla. Knightley called to congratulate her, Alan. Peggy even unexpectedly made her a small cake with the words Best Supporting Actress written on it.

Elisa couldn't cry or laugh, but there was also a hint of emotion.

Luisa is busier than usual, most of the time, she and Elisa will only talk on the phone, watching Elisa gradually get on the right track, she gradually reassuring to develop other artists under her control.

Elisa has been nominated several times in a row, and Luisa has also received a lot of news in private, according to her location, it may not be so easy to win.

"Maria. Bello's "History of Violence" is also very favorable, in addition to several other films nominated with you, from the news from those mouths, it is probably between you and her that the New York Film Critics Association Award for Best Supporting Actress will be made. ”

Luisa said.

"What did the critic from 'People' say?"

Elisa pointed to her lips and motioned for the stylist to help her apply the lipstick a little heavier.

Since the last interview, she and Connie. Fink has always maintained a good relationship, and the members of the New York Film Critics Association Awards, who happen to know her, have all the things like Louisa going to find out.

"Although he was with Connie. Fink is on good terms, but his mouth is tightly closed. ”

In this way, in the face of the possibility of winning the New York Film Critics Association Award, Elisa lowered a few points in her heart.

And before the New York Film Critics Circle Awards, Elisa was nominated for Best Supporting Actress at the 11th Critics' Choice Awards, which spread good news.

The Critics' Choice Awards were held at the Santa Monica Municipal Auditorium in the coastal city of Los Angeles.

As the first major awards event in the film awards season to be broadcast to the whole of the United States on Guò TV, it can be said that it has attracted much attention.

And the table of "Brokeback Mountain" is enough to make people stunned.

-- Three nominations, three awards.

Ang Lee won the award for Best Director, while Michelle Williams, who played the lead man's wife in the film, won the Critics' Choice Award for Best Supporting Actress.

The best picture of course also went to "Brokeback Mountain".

Quite a few people have commented on Elisa. Serena's acting skills are more refined than the original "Hard Candy".

If "Fruit Hard Candy" was very open and full of aura at the beginning, then her performance in this film can be called free.

When she went up to accept the award, Elisa thanked everyone as usual.

"Yes, I'm grateful to director Ang Lee, if it wasn't for him, I wouldn't have this opportunity, but I'm also grateful to my friends and the people who have helped me a lot along my way, my agent, my fans, and a lot of people I've worked with before."

What she said was really sincere.

This year's Best Actor and Actress awards were won by Philip Seymour in "Capote" and Reese Witherspoon in "Unstoppable". The award for Best Supporting Actor went to Paul Jamatti, who played a boxing agent in "The Man with the Iron Fist".

The Freedom Award from the Broadcast Film Critics Association was awarded to George Clooney for the "values of freedom, tolerance and democracy" embodied in the film Good Night, Good Luck, which he wrote and directed by Guò. And the award for Clooney was presented to the famous movie star who had not been in public for a long time after giving birth to twins the year before last - Oscar-winning actress Julia Roberts.

It is worth mentioning at this year's awards ceremony that this Best Supporting Actress was played with Amy. Adams's "June Bugs" stand side by side.

So even if Elisa won the award, she was not too excited, and she set her sights on the Screen Actors Guild and the BAFTA Awards in late December and January.

However, no matter what, getting an award can be regarded as a good start for receiving the award ceremony.

When "Zombie Bride" was released, the cumulative box office in the United Kingdom and the United States reached 100 million US dollars, which is undoubtedly another Tim for it with a cost of only 40 million. The result of Burton's success.

Participated in the small party after the screening, and the staff was about to start preparing Elisa's costume for the awards.

And the arrival of one nomination after another has made Elisa's choice of brand sponsorship wider.

On December 9, the 22nd Screen Actors Guild Awards also announced their nominees, and the next day, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association announced the list of the 73rd "Golden Globe Awards".

And on these two lists, Elisa is on the list again.

Before the Oscar nominations are announced, everyone's awards are unpredictable, because, in general, the actors and films nominated for these two awards will inevitably be regarded as the favorites for Oscar nominations.

The results of "Brokeback Mountain" are too eye-catching, but although "Brokeback Mountain" has the amulet of the Golden Lion Award, it has been repeatedly frustrated when it is screened in theaters because of its sensitive gay themes, and only more than 400 theaters in the United States have agreed to screen it, although it has gradually increased to more than 600 later, it is to no avail.

This is also expected by everyone.

The future of winning the award is very good, but the box office income now seems to be only a dismal $30 million, which can be regarded as a return to the capital, Ang Lee has long expected this situation, so it is not surprising.

And in this situation, the New York Film Critics Association Awards kicked off on the twelfth.
