1044 Half-time

Standing on stage, Hayden has faded into a master photographer, "Honestly, I'm tired of working with Lance. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 "He's always pushing my boundaries, making outlandish demands, and then throwing me and the whole camera team aside and letting us figure it out, which is a tyrant's behavior." Hayden looked at Lance who was applauding happily on the stage, and couldn't help but wonder, "But I have to admit that working with Lance is not only a new attempt, but also a new challenge, and it is my honor to be able to take charge of such an excellent work as 'Fury Road'." So, I'm a little conflicted, on the one hand, I want to try something different, but on the other hand, I silently pray that this is not the last time I work with Lance. Lancelot Strello, what a man to love and hate, isn't he? ”

To the laughter of the audience, Hayden calmly held up the golden figure and finally said, "Fifteen years ago, my family thought I was going to be a terrible photographer, they thought I couldn't make a name for it in Hollywood." Now, I stand here and tell all the children who have dreams not to be too ambitious. This was the end of the acceptance speech, which came to an abrupt end, but it sparked laughter and applause from everyone.

This joke is exactly the same as the humor of Alan DeGenese at the beginning.

Immediately after, Robert Downey Jr. and Naomi Watts took the stage to present the Best Visual Effects Award, and in the competition for "Pirates of the Caribbean 2", "Poseidon" and "Fury Road", Chaos Pictures defeated Disney and Warner Bros. to win the seventh Golden Man trophy tonight, winning the fourth award in a row, and truly completing the all-round domination of the technical department, which reminded people of that night three years ago, when everyone witnessed the sweep of "Lord of the Rings 3".

The victory of the Best Visual Effects Award can be regarded as a big upset, not because the strength of "Fury Road" is not enough, but because this work completely uses the method of live special effects to complete the production, in the current era when computer special effects have become the mainstream, such a retro approach can be said to be the opposite, "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" and "Poseidon" both epitomize the peak level of today's computer special effects. According to the management of the academy, they should have chosen computer special effects, but the result of the award was a "violent road" of "innovation, exception, and rebellion", which made people confused - what did the academy think? Or is it entirely a choice for the special effects crews? There's no denying that the VFX of Fury Road really shook up 2006.

Subsequently, in the scorching competition for best foreign language film, "Eavesdropping Storm" repelled the "Pan's Labyrinth" and maintained the strength of its awards season to the end, winning the little golden man for Germany. This is not an unpopular, but it is the best portrayal of the victory of the brave in a narrow road, the crazy upward momentum of "Panshen's Labyrinth" in the second half of the awards season has not been able to bring Mexico the first Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film trophy, and it is even more regrettable that "Panshen's Labyrinth" has lost all four nominations so far, which is really embarrassing.

Whether it is an accident or an unpopularity, along with the award of the best foreign language film, this also means that the first half of the awards ceremony has come to an end.

The fierce competition in the first half involuntarily reminds people of "Lord of the Rings 3" and "Titanic", tonight's "Fury Road" seems to have no competitors at all, and every award is announced, "Fury Road" is a well-deserved winner. If it weren't for the awards for Best Documentary Short Film, Best Animated Short Film, Best Animated Feature, Best Foreign Language Film, Best Supporting Actor and other awards, it seemed that only the crew of "Fury Road" was celebrating wildly in the entire first half, and it completely became a special show for "Fury Road".

And so it was, although it missed out on Best Supporting Actor, "Fury Road" managed to sweep seven trophies in the technical department, Best Cinematography, Best Art Direction, Best Costume Design, Best Sound Effects, Best Sound Editing, Best Visual Effects, Best Makeup. With the exception of the yet-to-be-announced Best Film Editing award, all seven divisions in the technical department had the last laugh from "Fury Road", and people don't even know if they should be glad that there was no "Fury Road" in the nominations for Best Original Song and Best Original Score categories, otherwise tonight would really be the "Fury Road" commendation meeting.

What's even more terrifying is that "Fury Road" is still competitive among six nominations, which means that it still retains hope of breaking the record for the number of Oscars. So far, the record for the largest number of Oscar wins is held by "Titanic", "Lord of the Rings 3" and "Ben Hur", eleven statuette trophies, and "Fury Road" is still four trophies away from such a goal.

However, if "Fury Road" wants to break this record, it must first ask "The Departed" and "Babel" if they agree. The first half was completely the world of the technical department, and the other four popular works of Best Picture have not yet appeared, only after "Little Sunshine Beauty" defeated "The Departed" to win the Best Supporting Actor award, in addition, in other departments, they did not even have nominations, naturally there is no confrontation, the real showdown should start from the second half.

Imagine that the script department, the actor department, and the director department have just begun, and just depicting the next award trend is enough to make people's blood boil.

The staff bent over and invited Lance backstage to prepare, as last year's winner of Best Supporting Actor, Lance would be the guest of honor for Best Supporting Actress. Lance nodded, subconsciously looked back at Emma, Emma was chatting with Charlize, talking and laughing, very relaxed, she reflexively turned her head, just met Lance's gaze, her eyes flashed slightly, cast a light of inquiry, that familiarity and intimacy made the corners of Lance's mouth pull slightly, and seemed to gradually begin to get used to this change in details, "If you need it, you can go to the bathroom now." ”

Emma shook her head hesitly, patted Lance's right hand, and then squeezed it gently, she could feel the faint temperature, which made her feel more at ease than ever, "Don't worry, I'm ready before I leave today." "Under the guidance of professionals, the amount and timing of water intake are controlled, and the "three urgency" situations during the ceremony are avoided as much as possible. So, at this time, Emma couldn't be more comfortable.

Charlize poked his head over and waved his hand, "You go and present the awards, we'll be ready to laugh in the audience." This ridicule provoked Lance and couldn't help it.

Without dragging the mud and water, Lance stood up and followed behind the crew. A gaze seemed to be vaguely felt on his back, and he turned his head to see Emma's bright smile, just a glance at the dragonfly, and then Lance turned his head and continued to walk, but his steps seemed to be more calm, and he could clearly feel the weight and warmth of the carpet.

Entering the backstage, the noisy and warm atmosphere suddenly came to the face, which was a completely different scene from the guest seat.

Cate Blanchett, who walked over, had just finished the award for Best Foreign Language Film and was about to go back to her place, greeting with a smile, "Jesus Christ, I have heard the fourth person backstage today who regrets that I was not able to star in your next work, so, I think, you should remember to owe me a collaboration, right?" ”

"We'll be able to sign up before the party." Lance said with a smile, and then Kate triumphantly turned back to Cliff Owen behind him and shouted, "I've got the role of Lance in his next film!" "It attracted a lot of attention.

Saying goodbye to Kate and Cliff, Tom Cruise was still congratulating Lance on his harvest tonight, and Anne Hathaway and Emily Blunt came over to congratulate each other; Not far away, Robert Downey Jr. and Naomi Watts said hello from a distance and walked in the direction of the theater; Before he could move any further, Eva Green's slender figure appeared in sight, "Congratulations, congratulations", and the voice had already arrived seven or eight steps away from Lance.

The situation became even more chaotic after Lance entered the standby room, and everyone knew that whether or not "Fury Road" could make it to the top tonight, the work had been taken seriously enough, and the current sweeping performance as a seven-trophy was the best proof of this, and as a director, Lance's appeal in Hollywood has reached a new level. Even though everyone hated Lance, no one could refuse Lance's invitation, which was the so-called absolute strength, and the initiative was firmly in Lance's hands. It's hard to imagine how sought-after Lance will be after tonight's awards show - after all, "The Incredible Hulk" is already done, isn't it?

If it weren't for the staff to help end it, Lance probably wouldn't have been able to get out, let alone find time to warm up for his award string.

Lance felt that he had only been preparing for less than thirty seconds, and the staff came over to inform, "Lance, it's your turn." "In the second half, the award for Best Supporting Actress will be presented.

Lance adjusted his breathing, cleared his mind again, and walked behind the staff in the direction of the side platform. Leaving the standby room and walking down the hallway to the end, you can see the cascading curtains around you, surrounded by darkness that separates all lights from the stage, and Alan DeGenese's assistant turns on a flashlight in the darkness to make the final confirmations of Alan's makeup.

Sensing Lance's arrival, Alan smiled widely, "Hey, Champion." I'm looking forward to your wonderful performance in a while. Alan winked at Lance, "The second half was even better." ”
