Chapter 513: Nothing

Ask for commuter passes and recommended tickets!

"Best Actor Nominee," Anne Hathaway announced the nominations directly, "Jeff Bridges "Crazy Heart", George Clooney "In the Clouds", Colin Fils "Single Man" ......"

A personal name popped out of Anne Hathaway's mouth, and Leonardo DiCaprio couldn't help but glance at Murphy, and for some reason, he suddenly felt that he had lost the election. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Jeremy Renner, 'Bomb Disposal Unit.'"

The fourth person has a name, and still doesn't have his own name, Leonardo DiCaprio's heart gradually sinks, and he knows that Robert Downey Jr. is also aiming for Best Actor nomination......

At this moment, that little friendship with Robert Downey Jr. was completely left behind by Leonardo DiCaprio, who didn't want to hear the name Robert Downey Jr. at all.

The last nominee, if there is Robert Downey Jr., it means that there is no him.

"Robert Downey Jr., 'The Wolf of Wall Street!'"

It's not Leonardo DiCaprio, it's not Shutter Island!

Leonardo DiCaprio leaned heavily in his chair, his brow tightly locked, and his eyes unconsciously turned to Murphy's side.

The banquet hall erupted in applause, and Murphy was clapping with a smile on his face.

His hand trembled slightly, and Leonardo DiCaprio understood that he had already lost the game.

"Best Director Nomination!"

The applause paused, and Anne Hathaway's voice rang out again, "James Cameron's Avatar ......"

Leonardo DiCaprio exhaled that with the controversy caused by "The Wolf of Wall Street", Murphy Stanton may not be nominated for Best Director, so that he can also pull back a little.

"Kathryn Bigelow, 'Bomb Disposal Unit.'"

"The second one." Leonardo DiCaprio counts down in his mind.

"Lee Daniels, Love Actually!"

The previously embarrassed face improved, and Leonardo DiCaprio continued to meditate, "The third! ”

"Jason Reitman, 'In the Clouds'!"

"The fourth!" The corners of Leonardo DiCaprio's mouth are slightly hooked, and Murphy Steindo's chances of being nominated for Best Director are already slim.

Because there is no "Shutter Island" director Martin Scorsese in the announced nomination list, compared with the young Murphy Stanton, Martin Scorsese, as one of the four major directors, has an overwhelming advantage in terms of qualifications and connections, and "Shutter Island" has not received any Oscar nominations before, even if the academy is for balancing reasons, Martin Scorsese will be preferred over Murphy Stanton.

These thoughts flashed through Leonardo DiCaprio's head in an instant, and the corners of his mouth were already showing a less obvious smile.

Although there is no evidence that Murphy Stanton is related to his failure to be nominated for the Oscar for Best Actor, Leonardo DiCaprio believes that he is absolutely inseparable, and since he can't get the Best Actor nomination, he doesn't want to get the Best Director nomination.

Judging from the current situation, it is impossible for him to be nominated for Best Director, and this last place must belong to "Shutter Island", which he invested, must be Martin Scorsese!

"Murphy Stanton, 'The Wolf of Wall Street'!"

Anne Hathaway's voice sounded, and Leonardo DiCaprio's gradually revealing smile instantly stiffened, "What? ”

He turned to look at Murphy, "How could it be him?" Why not Martin Scorsese? ”

After the nominations for Best Director were announced, there was earth-shattering applause in the banquet hall, and Leonardo DiCaprio was a little stunned, sitting here with a gloomy face and no movement.

Suddenly, the camera lens on the scene turned to capture Murphy, as if it was a conditioned reflex, and the corner of his eye noticed that the camera lens was aimed at his own table, Leonardo DiCaprio immediately scattered the stiff smile on his face, his darkened face was replaced by warm congratulations, and his hands clapped vigorously with the applause in the banquet hall, fully showing the demeanor of a Hollywood superstar.

With the announcement of the list of nominees for Best Director, Murphy also settled down, and the most difficult nomination finally arrived.

Next, Anne Hathaway announced the list of nominees for Best Picture, which is the first time in Oscar history that the list of Best Picture nominees has exceeded five films.

"Best Picture: "Weakness," "Bomb Disposal Unit," "Avatar," "The Wolf of Wall Street," "District Nine," "Growing Up Education," "Flying House," "On the Far End," and "Serious Man."

"There's no Shutter Island!"

Just like when he performed, Leonardo DiCaprio's eyes widened exaggeratedly, and there was no "Shutter Island" of his own in the list of nominees for the entire nine films!

His face instantly turned extremely black, like a cloudy sky.

It's no wonder that Leonardo DiCaprio's face is so stinky, and of the list of nominees for all the twenty-four awards announced, "Shutter Island" did not receive a single nomination!

For Leonardo DiCaprio, who is bent on making a difference at the Oscars and wants to win Best Actor statuette, this is tantamount to a huge failure.

He silently calculated in his mind that Murphy Stanton's "The Wolf of Wall Street" actually won a total of nine Oscar nominations for Best Editing, Best Cinematography, Best Costume Design, Best Art Direction, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, Best Director and Best Picture!

"Damn it!"

Leonardo DiCaprio cursed in a low voice, and at this time the nominations were announced, and he didn't wait for a group photo and a souvenir, he stood up and left the Beverly Hills Hilton directly.

Murphy also saw Leonardo DiCaprio leave, but he didn't care at all, Leonardo DiCaprio would definitely think that the defeat of "Shutter Island" had something to do with him, and in fact it was related, but it was nothing, he was never the kind of saint who was bullied and had to suffer silently.

If someone else slaps him, he will only go back with a knife, and if he doesn't pay it back at that time, he is also waiting for a more suitable opportunity.

It was a highly competitive society, and Murphy had never been afraid of competition, but rather enjoyed it, in the words of a great man on the other side of the Pacific, that is, it was endless fun to fight with people.

After announcing the list of nominees, it was time for the routine group photo and souvenir collection, and under the rules set by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, there was no fierce competition on the scene, but a lot of fun.

Although the Oscar battle is very bloody, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences believes that the role of the annual banquet is not to create an atmosphere of singing and dancing, but to allow the nominees who may not be selected to get a sense of honor, in addition to taking pictures, receiving nomination certificates, and enjoying food, they will also receive a beautiful gift, which is undoubtedly an encouragement to the most outstanding filmmaker of the year.

In some ways, the nominees' luncheon before the Oscars is more like a sorority, where the academy can show its formality, where the nominees are given certificates, meetings and so on, where everyone meets, exchange meetings, talk about the gains and losses of the year, and on the surface it is somewhat similar to the symposium of outstanding workers on the other side of the Pacific.

In the Hollywood circle, even if there are all kinds of controversies and disturbances around the Oscars, no one will deny that it is the most authoritative award in the industry, and it is also a very honorable and worthy thing to show off to be nominated for the Oscar.

Of course, this is also a good place for PR people to build relationships, and Murphy chatted with many people for a while after the group photo.

Although there is no hope of winning the Oscars this year, there is such a thing as a network, who can't wait until the time to use it to remember to pull it, in that case it will be too late.

Finally, before leaving the Hilton Hotel, Murphy also gave an interview to a reporter from Fox TV.

"I spend a lot more money on the production of the film than on the cast," he said when asked why Murphy has always been able to control the cost of the film, "and this is a big reason why my film has a good cost control." ”

When asked how he faced the difficulties of filming, Murphy added, "It's good for people who make movies to go through a difficult time because they think in difficult times. If you are spoiled by a sufficient budget, the result will be a spoiled film; And if you overcame all the difficulties to shoot, I believe the audience can feel it. ”

"I think it's the same thing for all first-time filmmakers, and once you decide to do it, there's no dilemma, you don't care what's going to happen next." ”

When leaving the hotel, Murphy met Sandra Bullock, who took the initiative to say hello, and Murphy also chatted, and he vaguely remembered that the other party should be the best actress at this Oscar.

Seeing Sandra Bullock's face that was already a little stiff because of the injection, Murphy could only sigh that just like he was constantly accumulating seniority, the ways to win the Oscar heavyweight award were really diverse.

Getting in the car and telling the driver to go back to Wave Manor, Moffett called Gal Gadot, who had been in Israel for a while, to tell him the good news he had just received from the nominee's luncheon, and then went home to change into casual clothes and prepare to head to a beach restaurant in Santa Monica for a James Franco party.

James Franco has previously revealed that he will propose to Lily Collins at this party. (To be continued.) )
