I saw a smile on the TV screen, Golden Globe host Conan O'Brien, holding the list in his hand and starting to tell jokes, announcing the nominations one by one. First up is the best soundtrack, "Far from Heaven", "Little Crazy Flowers of the End", "All the Time", "Frida", and then "Juno"!
"Damn, don't ask, we've got a nomination, the first one."
Natalie's face was hot and completely overwhelmed by her question, and she quickly changed the subject and drew Anne's attention to the TV. Anne Hathaway saw that she had been nominated, so she shut up for the time being.
"Golden Globe nominees for Best Screenplay in the Film category are: Bill Condon's Chicago, David Hale's All the Time, Todd Haynes' Far from Heaven, Charlie Kaufman/Donald Kaufman's Adapted Screenplay, and Christmas Chan's Juno!"
Natalie applauded Chen Tiandu in her heart, "Wow, that guy has been nominated for Best Screenplay again, this is the first time he has been nominated for Best Screenplay." ”
Anne-Hathaway was a little sour, "Hehe, now I don't call him by his name and just call him 'that guy', is this your nickname." Then what does he call you, Hani, baby, little meat, hey, good meat. ”
Natalie: "......"
At Kate's house in London, the long-awaited roast hare was finally ready, and it was served along with other dishes and food that had been prepared. Eat and drink, watch TV while eating. During the period+, the nominees for Best Film Song, Best Foreign Language Film, and Best Supporting Actor and Actress were announced.
didn't pay much attention, but when the best foreign language film was announced, I actually saw the nomination of "Hero". This surprised Chen Tiandu.
Calculate the time. "Hero" was also released in China. Early registration for the Golden Globes is not a must. It's just that if they want to win the award, it's best for the crew to do a PR with their North American distributor, Harvey Weinstein. Otherwise, it will only be a wasted trip.
After all, following the trend of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" will not have its good luck, even "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" cannot be so lucky to win the award just by signing up. I wanted to remind Zhang Weiping, but I picked up the phone and put it down again, why bother with others ignoring me.
Soon, it came to the nomination for Best Actor and Actress in a Musical Comedy.
"This should be nominated." Kate asked.
Chen Tiandu only hesitated and nodded, "There is a lot of hope...... Almost 100 percent. "Something. It's transparent, otherwise which round gets media predictions.
At Natalie's house in New York, she also quickly sat up right from the sofa and turned up the TV a little louder, Anne suddenly said, "Is it your turn?" Can I get a nomination? ”
"I don't know, I heard that the matrix has PR, and my agency also has PR." Natalie spread her hands, "But who knows." It's a mess of the journalists behind the Spanish media, the German media, the French media, and even the Japanese media manipulating the Golden Globes. ”
"Uh-huh. So they can only be Golden Globes and not Oscars. ”
Compared with the uncertainty in Natalie's mouth, it is because she doesn't know the extent of PR behind it. And what Chen Tiandu said was almost 100 percent. It's because he knows which countries media reporters have been PR and knows how many dollars the PR department has spent. "Juno" reported in the musical comedy category, and Natalie Portman, who was described as a "genius performance" by the media, was the favorite for this award, and almost all of the media's predictions said that "Juno" would be shortlisted.
"Best Actress in a Musical Comedy: Maggie Gillian Hall's "Merry Boss, Pretty Secretary"; Nia Vadaros, "My Giant Greek Wedding"; Renee Zellweger, Chicago; Catherine Zeta-Jones, Chicago, and Natalie Portman's Juno! ”
“yeah! Congratulations, Nat. Anne Hathaway jumped to her feet and threw the pillow up to the ceiling.
"Thank you."
Countless "Juno" fans fell to the ground, and Natalie was also relieved. But when I saw that "Chicago", which was in the limelight, there were two people competing for Best Actress, and I didn't feel cold. She really wanted to call Chen Tiandu to express her feelings, if it was before, she would definitely be able to call whether you were at Kate's house or not, but now she has a ghost in her heart, but she can't call.
Then the Best Director Award was announced, and "Juno" won three nominations in a row, and many people thought that Chen Tiandu's nomination for this award was a certainty, but the results were often unexpected. The five films shortlisted, Stephen Dudley's "All the Time", Peter Jackson's "The Lord of the Rings 2: The Two Towers", Spike Jones's "Adapted Screenplay", Rob Marshall's "Chicago", Alexander Payne's "About Schmidt", Martin Scorsese's "Gangs of New York".
"How could it not be? It's so unreasonable, this group of bitches raised. Howard waited for a long time, but didn't hear his son-in-law's name, and immediately started scolding.
Kate also looked at Chen Tiandu, he shrugged his shoulders, and said calmly: "It's expected, even if the probability of winning the award is too small, so the focus of public relations is not on me." ”
Best Picture in a Musical Comedy: "About a Boy" abouoy; adaptation; Chicago, Chicago; "My Giant Greek Wedding" mybigfatgreekwedding; "Juno" Juno.
In the film awards, "Juno" won a total of four nominations, which is quite satisfying.
But the performance of the Matrix Company at the Golden Globe Awards is not all in the film awards, and the TV part also performs well. The Golden Globe Awards in the TV section are also divided into dramas, musical comedies, and one more mini-series. "Lost" has been loved by American drama fans not long after it was broadcast, and it has become more and more popular with its suspense, exquisite plot structure and large investment.
In the end, it lived up to expectations, broke the monopoly of the five major TV stations, and was shortlisted for the best drama series award. This is also the first time that the newly-born MM TV station has been shortlisted, and even the predecessor has not been able to break the monopoly. With this item, it can be seen that Chen Tiandu has helped the TV station after taking over the TV station.
But in other drama performance awards, they are still dominated by HBO's "The Black Family" and "Six Feet", as well as NBC's "White House", FOX's "24" and "CSI Crime Scene".
However, the performance of "The Big Bang Theory" in the comedy series category is eye-catching, and the nominations for Best Comedy Series, Jim Parsons and Rachel McAdams, also won the Best Actor and Actress nominations, which is really surprising.
It was bustling for half an hour, until the last nomination was announced, which caused heated discussions among the media and fans for the first time, and everyone was satisfied and dissatisfied.
Chen Tiandu's mobile phone kept receiving congratulatory calls and messages, and he also sent a text message to Jim and Rachel to congratulate the award-winning Jim and Rachel. As for Natalie, she didn't call herself, she didn't call her herself, everything was tacit.
The biggest winner is naturally "Chicago", and Natalie has no chance of competing for Best Actress, because "Chicago" has two women shortlisted, which is bound to take away a part of the vote.
Looking at the popularity of this movie in the awards season, I think there will be a big win at the Oscars. When the time comes, it will be up to Catherine and Renee Zellweger to wrestle their wrists, so that the film company will focus on public relations, and whoever has the most energy will have more hope of winning the award.
The crew of "About Schmidt" accused themselves of not being shortlisted for Best Film, not being shortlisted for Best Screenplay, and wildly criticized the Golden Globe Award for being unfair. As the biggest name of the crew, the leading actor Jack Nicholson rarely put away his big mouth, because he has already gotten the best actor nomination he wants.
The matrix also joined in the fun, flickering to suggest that "Juno" should be nominated for best director. It's not vexatious, because this statement is very hot on the Internet.
The media was lively, but Chen Tiandu no longer paid attention. He called his family and enjoyed a quiet English Christmas.
During the day, Kate takes him on a trip, how old he is, and he still plays in the playground like a child. Yacht cruises on the River Thames and London Bridge. By the way, he also attended the party at the home of England captain David Beckham, and easily stole the limelight from the heartthrob. He wasn't interested in football, and he didn't even pay much attention to this year's World Cup.
In short, many British people who travel on Christmas have seen them, and he has also met many big-name British actors under Kate's introduction. Many of them also have a mix in Hollywood, and this group is called the British Gang. The most famous actresses in this group are Kate and Catherine, who are married to the old man Michael Douglas.
The relationship between the two people enjoying the Christmas holiday in London quickly warmed up, and they showed intimacy before and after, anytime and anywhere. This is a pain for the British paparazzi, and they also have to spend Christmas.
Amid the hustle and bustle of the press and fans discussing the Golden Globe nomination list, the box office for the last two weeks has also come out.
A week before Christmas, on December 15~22, "The Lord of the Rings 2: The Two Towers" was released at the same time in 3,622 theaters and 6,633 screens in the North American market. This film is New Zealand director Peter Jackson who has finally survived the turmoil of a remuneration lawsuit. The film grossed $61.5 million over the three days of the weekend, starting Dec. 20, a 25 percent increase over the opening weekend of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Friendship.
Just looking at the box office of 60 million in the first release, it seems to be similar to "Juno", but "The Two Towers" premiered on Wednesday, and it earned $26 million at the box office on the same day, setting a new single-day box office record in December, and its box office in the first 5 days also successfully exceeded 100 million, with an income of $101.5 million, while "Juno" broke 100 million but took ten days.
