Chapter 652: Stand up and salute
In the warm applause, Robert Downey Jr. walked towards the Oscar stage in high spirits, and waved around frequently, the previous tension and expectation all disappeared, and it looked unusually commotionous. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
But that's Robert Downey Jr., isn't it?
Murphy heard from Susan Downey that Robert Downey Jr. had prepared a very special acceptance speech, and now he finally had a chance to hear it.
On the other side, Harvey Weinstein was clapping mechanically, with an expressionless fat face, which couldn't be said to be good-looking, this was an award that won nine out of ten, and it was lost like this!
Seeing Robert Downey Jr. take over the Golden Man for Best Actor from Natalie Portman, he leaned back in his seat and had a growing thought that this was not an Academy show for him and Weinstein Pictures!
"How many times has I made a comeback?"
On the stage, the first sentence of Robert Downey Jr.'s acceptance speech caused laughter from the audience, and everyone knew that he was more good at creating atmosphere than Murphy, "First of all, thank you to the guy who told me that George Clooney would win this award at about 10 o'clock this morning, so told me not to prepare an acceptance speech." ”
Robert Downey Jr. and George Clooney are old acquaintances and deliberately made a joke about him.
He then said, "I don't have anyone to thank, colleagues, crew, friends, brothers, family, they have helped me so much, I can't express it with a word of thanks, huh...... I should be able to thank Twentieth Century Fox...... Actually, these guys should thank me, there are too many movies in this festival file that are about to squeeze out "Diego Rose", if it weren't for me, I guess we wouldn't have any drama at all. ”
There was a burst of laughter in the Dolby Theater, and no one thought that Robert Downey Jr. would make such a special acceptance speech when he won the Oscar for Best Actor.
"This guy." Murphy laughed and applauded, and Gal Gadot next to him was also laughing, "It's ingenious." ”
Standing in front of the microphone, Robert Downey Jr. continued his special acceptance speech, "I don't really want to thank Murphy Stanton either, although this guy is probably ......"
He snapped his fingers and counted, "Hmm...... At least six times have saved my career. ”
At this, he looked at Susan Downey, "I don't really want to thank my wife, I wouldn't know where to bang if it weren't for her." Murphy had a vision for the film, where a lot of people got together and were half-dead, and by the way, he used to say that the magic of art is that it can be transformed into all kinds of novel forms of expression, so I want to thank ...... Or not thanks to the Academy, they are a bunch of innovative people, and now I am one of them! ”
In the end, Robert Downey Jr. lifted the Oscar statuette and walked to the side of the stage, but instead of going backstage, he stood on the side of the stage and waited for the next award for Best Director.
Murphy was also a little nervous, all the way to the present, only a few people know how many hardships and dangers he has overcome, the initial capital to win in danger, the persistent efforts to step into the mainstream, the experience of running for many years several times, and the current situation created by using all the available situations.
"There was a big boy who became a great actor at the age of nineteen and was a superstar in the eighties."
Billy Crystal brought out the award for Best Director, "He still hasn't faded to this day!" Welcome Tom Cruise! ”
The classic soundtrack of "Mission Impossible" sounded, and Tom Cruise stepped on the stage at the point of the music.
"It's finally here!"
There was excitement in the discussion group on the Internet, "Murphy's moment has finally come!" ”
"Won the Oscar for Best Director!"
Daisy was not far behind, and wrote directly, "Murphy is the best director!" ”
"Murphy is the best director!"
"Murphy is the best director!"
"Murphy is ......"
It was followed by a group of people who echoed it.
But that's not the end of it, Daisy typed out another line of words, "If tonight's Oscar for Best Director isn't Murphy, I'll burn down the headquarters of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences tomorrow!" Burn down the entire Wiesch Street! ”
"Count me in!"
Latecomers enthusiastically signed up.
"I'll go too!"
"Everyone's together!"
Someone is calmer.
"You don't have a chance, Murphy is definitely the best director!"
On the Nielsen side, the number of Oscar viewers in North America reached tonight's peak when the Best Actor was awarded - 38.26 million!
However, that number didn't last long at all, and when Billy Crystal announced the start of the Best Director Awards, Nielsen's North American viewership exceeded 40 million in less than half a minute!
And it's on the rise! Straight to the 45 million mark!
Daisy stared at the live streaming page, her gaze unmoving.
Justin clasped his hands together and seemed to pray for the director he liked.
Countless Murphy fans across the United States put down their beer, Coke, burgers and sandwiches, and they waited quietly, waiting for their favorite director to win the award!
On the stage of the Dolby Theater, stepping on the steps of the soundtrack of "Mission Impossible", Tom Cruise, who had cut his hair short, walked slowly, his smile was still so charming, but it couldn't attract people's attention, at this moment, even Tom Cruise was just a backdrop for the Best Director award.
Harvey Weinstein cheered up 120,000 points, will the academy give Weinstein Pictures a piece of cake? After all, he put so much effort into it!
"A lot of people know that the cinematographer is in charge of shooting, the actors are in charge of acting, and the screenwriter is in charge of the script, but what does a director do?"
Despite being fifty years old, Tom Cruise still looks so handsome, and his voice is still charming, "In fact, directors are a group of people who can give everything for a vision, and the following five are the dreamers who were shortlisted because of their exemplary works!" ”
"Here are the Oscar nominations for Best Director!"
Tom Cruise turned to look at the big screen and said, "Michael Hazanavicius – The Artist." Michael, Murphy Stanton - "Diego Rose", Martin Scorsese - "Hugo", Woody Allen - "Midnight in Paris", Terrence Malick - "The Tree of Life" ”
Who will win the award? The people inside the Dolby Theatre are waiting! Countless movie fans throughout North America are also waiting!
With his trademark smile, Tom Cruise opened the envelope and glanced at it, without raising his head, and read out the results.
"Murphy Stanton, 'Diego Rose'!"
"Won!"
Margot Robbie immediately clapped her palms and turned her head to look at Murphy, who threw all her nervousness and anticipation out of the clouds, and turned her head to kiss Gal Gadot fiercely.
"We won......" Gal Gadot whispered in his ear before hugging Murphy, "We won!" ”
Immediately afterward, Susan Downey, David Robbie, Philip Raschel, and Helena Espora and others came over to congratulate Murphy one by one.
At the same time, the discussion board of the Internet was boiling.
"Win! Win! ”
In a delicate apartment building, Daisy jumped up directly from the computer chair and waved her lower arms vigorously, at this moment she was extremely excited, as one of the first fans who liked Murphy, she knew very well what kind of grinding, hard work and hard work Murphy Stanton had gone through to get to where she is now!
"Come on, Murphy!" She shouted.
"We won!" Back in the computer chair, Daisy typed this sentence in the discussion board as quickly as she could.
"Yes, we won!"
Also sitting in front of the computer, Justin just took his hands off the keyboard, he had a feeling of getting what he wanted, what could be happier than his favorite work and director being recognized?
"Wow, Murphy won!"
"Murphy is the best director!"
"Murphy is going to win the best director statuette!"
"We've won!"
In the discussion area, it has become a sea of joy, and countless fans have made various congratulatory voices.
At the moment when Tom Cruise announced the winners, countless bars across the United States erupted in cheers, the sound of wine glasses clashing one after another, and then silence returned, waiting for the moment when the director walked onto the stage to accept the award.
There was a dead silence where Harvey Weinstein and the "Artist" crew were located, and they lost!
Looking at Murphy, who was congratulated by everyone, Harvey Weinstein first clenched his fist, and then let go, and Murphy Stanton ended his Oscar running career?
At this moment, Harvey Weinstein still can't believe it's true, he and Weinstein Pictures just lost?
When he saw the tall figure walking towards the stage in congratulations, he finally understood completely that they had really lost, and they had lost completely!
Although there is still the best picture that has not been awarded, Harvey Weinstein is an expert in running the Oscars, and has clearly understood that this year's Oscars are to completely recognize Murphy Stanton and set the tone for the conflict between Catholic and Hollywood films to support film directors, and the best picture in the future will definitely be "Diego Rose", and it will definitely not be "The Artist".
Martin Scorsese is also clapping his hands, if it is someone else who wins the award, he will feel unwilling, but he will not lose to Murphy, the other party's film noir, especially several noir crime movies, is really outstanding, even when he was at the peak of his shooting of the black crime genre, it was only at the level of Murphy Stanton.
"It's okay." Harvey? Weinstein said to Bob Weinstein, who was unwilling next to him, "We can come back next year, and with Murphy Stanton's bias towards darkening and commercialization, I don't know how many years it will take to wait for the next Oscar to come back!" ”
The moment Murphy walked onto the stage and took the golden man from Tom Cruise, the Dolby Theater burst into applause again, Gal Gadot stood up and made a standing gesture, and the crew of "Diego Rose" stood up, and then the people around stood up one after another, once again sending a tsunami of applause.
The Dolby Theatre stands up and salutes the best director of the night!
