Chapter 649: A good start
"The first award is coming, I remember that Diego Rose was also shortlisted, right?"
In the discussion forum on the Internet, Daisy has already focused on the Oscars, and as soon as her words were asked, many people responded. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Yes, the finalist is Murphy's dedicated photographer, Philip Raschel!"
"I just wonder if Philip Raschel can get Murphy off to a good start?"
"It must be possible, think about the films nominated, which one can surpass "Diego Rose" in terms of cinematography? The black and white photography of The Artist is long gone! β
It's clear that these fans were influenced by the media hype, and that long shot was praised by too many people.
Seeing this, Daisy thought back to the nomination for this award, and couldn't help but nod slightly, the gap between the other films nominated at the same time and "Diego Rose" is too obvious, if this award does not fall on the head of Murphy's crew, then the Oscar judges will be blind!
But she is not a rookie back then, and she also knows that there is a high possibility that the Oscars will be influenced by public relations, and Harvey Weinstein is a recognized Oscar PR expert, which has been reported by many media outlets some time ago.
"It's just a technical award, it's nothing if you lose it, right?"
There are also people in the discussion area who don't think so, after all, it's just the best photography.
Daisy thought for a while and analyzed, "Don't look at this is only the best cinematography, but among the many technical awards, the weight with the best editing is the heaviest, a film loses these two awards at the same time, it is basically impossible to win the best director and the best picture, if you win these two awards at the same time, the chance of winning the best director and the best picture is at least more than 80%!" β
"That's very important!"
"I'll cut back first and watch the awards!"
Everyone left the page to see Tom Hanks.
Inside the Dolby Theater, after the routine cross-talk, Tom Hanks said with the picture on the big screen on the stage, "The nominees for Best Cinematography are: Gerneum Schiffman for "The Artist", Jeff Colonwess for "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo", Robert Richardson for "Hugo", Fille Raschel for "Diego Rose", Emmanuel for "The Tree of Life"? Lubezki! β
Tom Hanks bowed his head to open the envelope, Murphy's atmosphere seemed to be a little tense, and the main people in the crew knew that they had invested all the resources they could put into this Oscar, this crucial technical award, and it could even be said that it was like a weather vane.
Whether the Oscar judges were too influenced by the public opinion that smeared Murphy and "Diego Rose" can be seen from this award.
A successful start often represents a happy ending!
It's not just the people in the Murphy crew who think so, but the people in the "Artist" crew on the other side think the same way.
Harvey Weinstein sat there calmly watching Tom Hanks on the stage and took out the card in the envelope, he was very sure that Tom Hanks would read "The Artist" and Gnaum Schiffman's name the next moment.
He glanced at the "Diego Rose" crew, including the two leading men, Murphy Stanton and Robert Downey Jr., who were visibly nervous.
"Huh......" Harvey Weinstein shook his head, "a bunch of people with little to no Oscar winning experience!" β
In addition to technical awards, have Murphy Stanton and his team won any heavyweight Oscars? What do they fight with Weinstein Pictures?
Bob Weinstein next to him seemed a little worried, and after looking over, Harvey Weinstein nodded, "It's okay, don't worry." β
Tom Hanks glanced at the card, looked up and said, "It was ...... who got the best photography"
The Dolby Theater was instantly silent, and since the Academy had put this award at the top, it naturally knew its importance to a film.
"Filip Raschel!" Tom Hanks' voice resounded throughout the audience, "Diego Rose! β
βYesοΌβ
Robert Downey Jr. was the first to clap his palms, the first to stand up, Murphy also stood up, clapping his palms, while turning to his director of photography, Philip Raschel was quite excited, for a Hollywood cinematographer, this is the highest honor that can be obtained, he took a deep breath, calmed down a little, hugged the members of the crew one by one, and finally walked to Murphy's side.
Murphy opened his arms, hugged Filly Raschel, and slapped him on the back a few times, "Congratulations, Filly!" Well done! β
"Murphy, thank you!" He also patted Murphy on the back, "Choosing to join your team at that time was the best choice I made in my life!" β
"Let's go up!"
Robert Downey Jr.'s voice came from the side, Filipe Raschel straightened his suit a little and strode to the stage, and the soundtrack of "Diego Fez" sounded in the Dolby Theater for the first time.
"This ......" Harvey Weinstein watched Philip Raschel walk onto the stage and take over the golden figure representing the best cinematography from Tom Hanks, a hint of gloom flashed across his fat face, "What's going on?" β
How did such a crucial technical award be snatched away by Murphy Stanton?
Harvey Weinstein had a bad feeling, but then he thought about it, this is the Oscars, and no one is 100 percent guaranteed, just the best cinematography award.
On stage, Philip Raschel was already in front of the microphone.
"Thank you Academy, thank you all, I'm really excited today! I can't believe you guys put the best photography first, that's too high! β
After the joke, Filip Raschel made a rather exaggerated deep breath and continued, "I love the work of film, I have a great group of people to work with, David Robbie, Helena Espora, Gal Gadot, Paul Wilson, I want to thank you guys, you have helped me so much! Also, I want to thank my parents, my fiancΓ©e! β
He accentuated his tone slightly, "I want to thank Murphy in particular, I was just a little photographer who didn't care, I only worked as a camera assistant, and I didn't even make a formal feature film, Murphy chose to trust me, and then I had a ......"
At this point, Philip Raschel held up the little golden figure, and the music urged by the organizers rang out, and he finally said, "Thank you!" β
Led by the master of ceremonies, Philip Raschel walks backstage with Tom Hanks.
Under the stage, all the crew, including Murphy, applauded vigorously, and the entire theater also burst into warm applause.
"It looks like we're promising."
Robert Downey Jr. whispered to Murphy, who nodded, "Let's see how many little figurines we can take tonight!" β
"Harvey Weinstein is watching you." Gal Gadot on the other side reminded.
Murphy shook his head, "Leave him alone. β
The current result cannot be changed, even if Harvey Weinstein's eyes are like a sword, he is still afraid that he will not succeed?
Harvey Weinstein quickly adjusted his mentality, this is just a technical award, and the academy is likely to throw some consolation prizes to Murphy Stanton as in previous editions, as long as he doesn't win Best Picture and Best Director, he is still a loser, and he will still win steadily.
"Murphy won!"
The discussion board on the Internet was thunderous, and several circles formed with Murphy's die-hard supporters as the core, such as the discussion group led by Daisy, spoke in the discussion board to celebrate.
"Best Cinematography! It's off to a good start! β
"We'll continue to win prizes!"
"Will Diego Rose sweep this Oscar?"
"Definitely, I think Murphy's crew can take at least five little golden figures!"
Suddenly, a message splashed cold water jumped out of the boil.
"It's just shit luck, soon Murphy Stanton will be losing and crying!"
It's an ID called 'I'm a Catholic,' "I'm going to stay in Beverly Hills and throw shit at Murphy Stanton!" β
Daisy immediately became angry, "It's you again!" Don't think I won't recognize you if you change your ID! β
"What's wrong with me?" The ID of 'I am a Catholic' is quite arrogant, "Wait, our archbishop has already reported the situation to the Vatican, wait for the Pope to speak, and see if your Murphy Stanton will be a man with his tail between his legs!" β
"Seal him!"
"Kick him!"
In the comments on the discussion board, the ID of 'I am a Catholic' disappeared.
But that didn't diminish Daisy's anger, and she felt like her heart was about to run out of control.
"I'll definitely find you! I'll clean you up again! β
Daisy swears viciously that she will never let this guy go!
Inside the Dolby Theatre, Billy Crystal takes the stage again and continues to play with his tongue.
"Over the past year, there have been many celebrities who have fallen in love with movies."
Speaking of which, Billy Crystal pointed to the big screen, which was a picture of a woman, "For example, Hillary Clinton, who wants to run for president, is said to like the movie "Kill Bill" very much, maybe this movie can help her fulfill her wish to kill Bill, right?" β
After the joke ended, the main dish came on the court, and Billy Crystal said cleanly, "Ladies and gentlemen, now I have to ask James Franco to present the Best Supporting Actress!" β
"Could it be that Maggie will win?" Gal Gadot was curious.
Murphy is also curious that although Margot Robbie is not a member of the Stanton Party, everyone knows that she is in the same group as the Stanton Party, and some media have even begun to classify her among the Stanton Party.
Now for James Franco to award the best supporting actress, is there any idea on the part of the academy? After all, the current academy is very good at using gimmicks to attract audiences.
