Around the same time as the British Academy Film Awards, the 71st Golden Globe Awards also announced the nominations at about the same time.

The Golden Globe Awards are a film and television award in the United States, and like the Golden Satellite Awards, they are also organized by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, which awards the awards one month ahead of the Oscars.

Nominated for this year's Golden Globe Awards, "The Matrix" received four nominations, Best Feature Film, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Original Score, and the Golden Globes have no technical awards.

Basically, the nominations for these two awards were announced, 2013 was flipped over the calendar, and after New Year's Day, 2014 arrived.

First of all, the British Academy Film Awards, because they are all technical awards, Zhang Tan did not attend, even if the best editing is his nomination.

Among Hollywood directors, there are not many directors who have editing rights, which is the exclusive right of big directors.

Zhang Tan is undoubtedly one of the directors who has this power, and his films are always edited by himself, without bothering anyone. Only occasionally, in order to adapt to foreign tastes, local editors may be invited to make a few modifications according to the preferences of local audiences.

In the end, "The Matrix" only won two absolute technical awards, best sound and best visual effects.

Passable.

As a commercial film, as a science fiction film, it is natural to be subject to certain discrimination in terms of awards. Basically, commercial blockbusters, or sci-fi films, are very difficult to win awards.

On January 12, 2014, the 71st Golden Globe Awards were announced at the Hilton Beverly Hills Hotel in Los Angeles.

As Hollywood's second most important award after the Oscars, the attention of the Golden Globes is also world-class, and the awards ceremony was held in the form of a banquet, Zhang Tan brought the crew of "The Matrix", including Kelly Netherway, Rondo Corsica, Zhao Zhuo and others who were not nominated. Attended the award ceremony together.

The reason why everyone is here is, of course, to do publicity, the sequel to "The Matrix" is scheduled to be released this year and next year, and now that there is an opportunity to promote, of course you can't let it go.

"Director Tan Zhang, first of all, congratulations on being nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Director, how likely do you think you will win the Golden Globe Award tonight?" Journalists present. is quite interested in Zhang Tan, a young director.

"I don't know. The other directors who were nominated are all very good, it's hard to guess, and I don't like to guess, whoever gets it is acceptable to me. Zhang Tan felt that he had little hope of winning the award, that is, he came to play soy sauce and take the crew on the red carpet for publicity, but he was not modest in the face of reporters.

In his heart, he was quite satisfied with his "Matrix" and felt that he would win the best director. And as it should be.

Naturally, I don't want to compliment my opponent.

The reporter asked Zhang Tan again, "The Matrix" has almost been wiped out in the actor performance awards, and the Film Critics Association Awards, Guild Association Awards, Golden Satellite Awards, Golden Globe Awards, etc., are all on the list, what do you think.

Zhang Tan bared his teeth: "Eh, I think Kelly and Rondo acted very well." However, as a commercial sci-fi blockbuster, for the sake of entertainment, it does occasionally limit the play of acting skills...... All in all, I think they are very good, at least the audience likes their performances. ”

In other words, Zhang Tan also felt that Kelly and they played just that, after all, the actors were selected at that time. The first is to find actors with cheap and good quality and idol temperament, and the demand for acting skills is secondary.

After dealing with reporters, Zhang Tan took his wife Susa and sat at his own table under the guidance of the staff.

The little couple were not the kind of people who were keen to socialize, and after sitting down, the two of them whispered. Wait patiently for the award ceremony to begin.

However, it is obvious that in Hollywood, today's Zhang Tan is no longer a newcomer, as a young generation of directors who are gaining momentum, many people expect him to be a master director in the future, so there are many familiar stars who come to say hello.

It was so lively that the award ceremony began.

"I have a hunch that tonight 'The Matrix' is going to go home empty-handed." Rondo sat next to Zhang Tan and said to Zhang Tan in a chattering voice.

Zhang Tan rolled his eyes: "Don't be a crow's mouth, I have two nominations!" ”

Kelly's mouth is sweeter: "It's hard for us to get the best picture, but Tan can get the best director, I believe." ”

Zhang Tan nodded appreciatively: "You are very discerning." ”

But the good ones are not bad spirits, tonight's Golden Globe Awards do not belong to Zhang Tan, nor do they belong to "The Matrix", and the four nominations are all wiped out.

Even if he was mentally prepared, Zhang Tan was still in a bad mood, and when the award ceremony ended, he left in a hurry, and did not accept the subsequent interview with reporters at all.

At this time, it is estimated that there are only those award-winning stars in the eyes of reporters.

……

Zhang Tan's bad mood continued until January 16.

Because on this day, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences Awards, also known as the Academy Awards, announced the nominations for the 86th Academy Awards.

Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, Best Cinematography, Best Editing, Best Visual Effects, Best Sound Editing, Best Sound Effects, Best Art Direction, Best Soundtrack.

"The Matrix" received a total of 9 nominations, including a nomination for Best Director.

After the nominations were announced, the global media and audiences were interpreting the list of nominations, and guessing the awards based on the vane of the major awards in the previous awards season.

And "The Matrix" is mentioned quite frequently.

"Tan Zhang was nominated for an Oscar for Best Director for "The Matrix", becoming the first Chinese to receive this nomination." Salary waves.

"The Matrix was nominated for seven Tech Awards, making it the fourth film in Oscar history to be nominated for all Tech Awards." "Variety".

"Nominated for the Oscar for Best Director, Tan Zhang is already one of the best directors in the world!" China Youth Daily.

"The nomination for the technical award is round, and "The Matrix" deserves to be the most sensational blockbuster of 2013." The New York Times.

With the stunning performance of "The Matrix", all seven Oscar awards in the technology category were nominated, which is well deserved.

Zhang Tan's nomination for Best Director is also commendable news because Zhang Tan is too young. However, there is not much record of winning the award itself, and it is neither the first time in Asia, nor the youngest Oscar. Of course, it is the first time for a mainland director, so there is a lot of praise in China.

It seems that Zhang Tan has already won the award.

The Hollywood media generally believes that Zhang Tan's nomination is supported by technical awards. Such a nomination can only be regarded as a companion in the nomination award, and the possibility of winning the award is very small.

Zhang Tan himself knows it.

Isn't the Golden Globe Award also nominated, and it is not empty in the end. What's more, the unspoken rules of the Oscars, the probability of winning art awards is very clear about the original sin of blockbusters, long live independence, sci-fi go away, white male vision, public relations black hands, masochism, and British style.

Unfortunately, "The Matrix" is a blockbuster, and the first one is stuck; "The Matrix" is a joint investment by major studios, and the second one is also bye-bye; "The Matrix" is a science fiction film, and the third one continues to end. It's almost 100% certain that the art awards have nothing to do with The Matrix.

The best director is definitely not played, and there is still a possibility of the best original screenplay.

But no matter how pessimistic the final award is predicted, at least now, Zhang Tan has been nominated for the Oscar for Best Director, which shows that in the past year, among all directors in the world, Zhang Tan is one of the best five people in the world!
