Chapter 749: Super Winner

"Am I really the Oscar for Best Actor?"

Standing in the center of the round stage, James Franco's eyes widened, as if he still couldn't believe it, "Did I really get the Oscar?" ”

There was a round of applause and whistles from below the stage. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

James Franco continued, "There are so many people I want to thank for, the college, the wife, the friends, the brothers...... I won't name them one by one, lest they be embarrassed and say, 'Wow, you know that idiot James Franco!'" ”

There's no doubt that James Franco has a talent for hilardy.

With only forty-five seconds to deliver his acceptance speech, James Franco sped up his speech, "A few years ago, when Robert Downey Jr. had just won the Oscar for Best Actor, he said to me, 'James, you're never going to touch an Oscar statuette in your life,' and a guy named Jonah Hill hit me and said, 'If you win Best Actor, I'll jump off the cliff in Malibu,' and even Seth Rogun said to me, 'You win Best Actor, I'll go naked,'......"

James Franco raised the Oscar-winning actor statuette in his hand to the place where the Stanton party members gathered, and said loudly, "Did you see that? You can do it, and I'll be waiting for you at the theater after the ceremony. ”

He went on to say, "And there's another, Murphy-Stanton, who has tormented me with a nervous breakdown that I can't sleep, and look, now retribution comes." ”

Laughter rang out one after another, and the Dolby Theater almost turned into a sea of joy.

Seeing James Franco holding the Best Actor statuette talking and laughing on stage, Leonardo DiCaprio is smiling on his face, but his heart is bleeding, when will he wait until he can end his career as an Oscar-winning escort commissioner?

After finishing his acceptance speech, James Franco walked backstage, but instead of going directly backstage, he stood at the backstage entrance.

Because next "Dark City" will compete for Best Director and Best Picture!

"Tom Hanks is invited to present the Best Director ......"

Accompanied by the voice of Ellen DeGeneres, the obviously blessed Tom Hanks walked onto the stage, waved in the face of the tidal wave of applause below, and said, "Thank you!" Thank you! Good evening, everyone! ”

It may be that this Oscars has dragged on for too long, Tom Hanks did not even say a series of words, "It's an honor to present this award, and ...... have been nominated for Best Director at this year's Oscars"

He turned and looked at the big screen behind him.

Leonardo DiCaprio turned his head to look at the crew of "Dark City", "Dark City" is too strong at this Oscars, and there is no suspense in this award for best director.

Brad Pitt also believes that this award will basically fall into the hands of the crew of "Dark City", and the focus of "12 Years a Slave" is not on this, and the other nominees have no advantage at all.

"Alfonso Cuarón, Gravity; Steve McQueen, "12 Years a Slave," ...... "Classic clips of these nominated films appear on the big screen," Alexander Payne, Nebraska; David O. Russell, "The American Hustle"; Murphy Stanton, The Dark City ”

When the picture on the big screen ended, Tom Hanks turned around, opened the envelope, and said directly, "The Oscar winner for Best Director is Murphy Stanton, "The Dark City." ”

At the same time as Tom Hanks's voice fell, applause rang out in the theater, Murphy kissed Gal Gadot, and then stood up, all the people in the "Dark City" crew stood up, and then everyone around stood up, and the guests sitting in the front row also stood up again!

Then the entire audience at the Dolby Theater stood up.

There doesn't seem to be any surprise to this result, and no one thinks it is a mismatch, not even Leonardo DiCaprio is just angry at the result, not surprised!

Thunderous applause! Joy shook the sky!

In front of the TV, Archbishop Márquez Costello has a face as black as Will Smith.

"Damn it!" He struggled to keep himself from scolding, "Damn! Damn Murphy Stanton! Damn Hollywood! This damn movie! ”

Hollywood and the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences are literally slapping him in the face of the archbishop and the Catholic Church in this region!

The result was terrible for him, Murphy Stanton won another Oscar for Best Director, and he participated in the Venice Film Festival in late August and early September with the halo of a golden man. What about the reputation of Catholicism......

More importantly, what should he do?

The entire Vatican Holy See does not want to see this situation, Pope Benedict XVI will definitely be blamed, such a big incident cannot be stopped, someone must be responsible, so the person who carries the black pot ......

Archbishop Márquez-Costello reclined in his office chair and seemed to see his own dark future.

Seeing Murphy Stanton on the TV screen walk onto the stage, receiving the little golden man representing the Oscar for Best Director from the award presenters, and standing there with infinite glory, Archbishop Márquez Costello knew that his archbishop career might be coming to an end.

"Thank you to the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, and thank you to every judge for once again awarding me the Best Director award."

Standing in the middle of the circular stage, Murphy made no secret of his excitement, he had worked hard for so long, and now that he had results, how could he be unhappy and worthy of his previous efforts. He continued, "Making a movie is like a life experience, and I thank 'Dark City' for giving me the most unique feeling. It took a long time to shoot, but it was worth it, and I hope to share this award with all the main creators of the Dark City! ”

He held up the Oscar statuette to the location of the crew of "Dark City", and said, "Thank you to my family, it was Gadot who solved all my worries for me." ”

Once again, there was a flood of applause in the theater.

Unlike James Franco's humorous acceptance speech, Murphy's words were regular, even routine.

Amid the applause, Murphy walked backstage, but he, like James Franco, stopped at the backstage entrance.

"What does it feel like to be the best actor?" Murphy asked in a deliberate whisper.

James Franco shrugged, "It's the same feeling you had when you first won Best Director." ”

Next up is the best picture, and Murphy and James Franco will of course have to see the results of this final award.

"I think ......," James Franco said to Murphy in a low voice, "we're a little hanging." ”

Murphy wondered, "Why do you say that?" ”

In the last four most important awards, "Dark City" has won three in a row, and the best picture is almost in the bag.

"Look at who the presenters are." James Franco gestured behind him with his eyes, and Murphy turned his head to look at it, and couldn't help frowning, "It's him!" ”

In the Dolby Theater, everyone is waiting for the last award to be revealed, and the place where the crew of "Dark City" is located is laughing and laughing, even Gal Gadot and Margot Robbie, who has just returned, are smiling, and it seems that there is no suspense about the best picture.

"I'm happy now......" Brad Pitt sneered, "it's too early." ”

Angelina Jolie didn't know where he got his confidence, and looked at Brad Pitt suspiciously.

Brad Pitt said, "I have the exact news that the Best Picture presenters invited by the Oscars organizing committee are very beneficial to us! ”

Just as when Martin Scorsese won the Oscar for Best Director, the presenters were Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, and Francis Coppola, some presenters who were not the important awards presented by the previous winners, always foreshadowed the choice of the Oscars.

At the entrance and exit backstage, Murphy turned his head and glanced at the Best Picture presenters waiting to come on the stage.

The other party's small eyes, wide forehead, and attractive ears seem to be born with a sense of joy, which makes people can't help but have a good impression when they see it, and he is definitely a first-class handsome guy among black people!

That's right! That award presenter was black!

Murphy has watched many Oscars, how can he not know some unspoken rules for choosing award presenters?

Does the academy really want to hand over the best picture statuette to "12 Years a Slave"?

It's not impossible, "Dark City" has already won the best actor and actress and best director, which can fully demonstrate Hollywood's attitude and position, while "12 Years a Slave" had only one Best Supporting Actress and Best Adapted Screenplay before, as a very powerful black slave movie that has been touted, the number of such awards is obviously not enough, and it is not heavy enough.

"Will Smith ...... please"

Amid the voice coming from Alan DeGeneres, Will Smith took an envelope and walked past Murphy and James Franco to the awards stage.

Will Smith himself doesn't have any special feelings, although his wife is one of the most troublesome black people in Hollywood, he himself is a black actor who is extremely biased towards the white community, and in the end, no matter who wins, he doesn't get any benefits.

"...... were nominated for Best Picture at this year's Oscars"

Behind Will Smith, the big screen began to introduce the list of Best Picture nominees one by one, but Brad Pitt didn't listen, and when he saw Will Smith, the corners of his mouth already showed a winner's smile.

It is already clear who is the winner of Best Picture.

Will Smith opened the envelope, Brad Pitt knew which name he would pronounce, straightened his suit and said to Angelina Jolie, "Honey, I'm going to claim the award......"

Before he could finish his sentence, Will Smith said the answer on stage, "The winner of Best Picture is "The Dark City", Gal Gadot and Murphy Stanton! ”

"Uh......" Brad Pitt stunned in his seat.

"Wow!"

There was a cheer from the side, and under the greeting of Gal Gadot, everyone in the crew of "Dark City" poured onto the Oscar stage, gathered Murphy and James Franco who came from the backstage, and lifted the Best Picture statuette!

With thirteen nominations and thirteen Oscars, "The Dark City" became the super winner tonight!
