"The winner of the best original screenplay was...... American Beauty! Allan. Bauer! ”

As the voice on the stage sounded, the entire hall Zhihong burst into applause. Levy, who was sitting in the crowd, also applauded, watching the American beauty defeat Truman's world and win another award.

This time for the Oscars, Levy has received very few nominations, there are only five nominations for a film, and the nominations lack the most important acting awards, best editing and best cinematography and other awards, it can be said that this Oscar, Truman's world has been announced in advance and the best film has not been awarded.

Therefore, seeing that awards such as Best Original Screenplay were taken away by others, Levy did not have much surprise on his face: this was not an Oscar that belonged to him. He came here, not so much to wait for the awards, but to come to this place to see the difference between the awards and the memory.

After all, he has changed Hollywood a little, and some things are not quite the same as he remembers. He also wants to know what changes will be made to the Oscars this time.

However, it seems that so far, the changes have not been too much: the best sound, the best sound, the best visuals, and the best editing, all of which have been successfully won by The Matrix. The visual impact of this movie is still an unshakable fact. And these awards were originally reserved for commercial blockbusters, and it is normal for The Matrix to get these, just like Levy is very sure that next year, the X-Men will definitely have a place in these movies.

And the best art direction was won by the Headless Horseman. Depp's mature work does have a very unique art style, and the gothic style movie made by Tim Burton and Johnny Depp is a little weird, but I have to admit that it is a good movie.

Of course, it has to be mentioned. There is also another masterpiece of the year, American Beauty. The film is also an extremely successful film, and its portrayal of middle-class American families is quite profound, and it is indeed loved by many people. At this dinner at the Oscars, at least the best original screenplay and best cinematography have been easily put in the bag. Unlike Levy's films, this film received several major nominations from the start, including Best Film, Best Shooting, Best Director, and Best Actor. Although there are not many nominations, it is one of the hottest movies. Sam. This is Mendes' first time making a movie, but he, like Levy, is enough to become famous in one fell swoop by relying on this film.

Good movies are still good movies after all, and the excellence of these movies is there, even if Levy can have some impact on Hollywood, it can't really make the movie look different. Obviously, he didn't have much influence in these selections.

And. Mendes' luck can be said to be even better than Levy's: apart from these few movies, there are really not many good movies this year: the supernatural sixth sense is a good movie. But if a thriller wants to win an Oscar, no movie has done it except the Silence of the Lambs. The Green Mile Miracle was filmed well, but it was obviously frying the leftovers of Shawshank's redemption, and it was not satisfactory. The commercialization of the Shocking Insider is a bit heavy. The law of the cider house movie is too bland.

Unlike the movies of previous years, which were basically masterpieces, this year's film competition. It can be said that it is a little bland. Two years ago, Levy filmed Eavesdropping Storm, although it was well received, but it won very few awards, and American Beauty became the biggest hit as soon as it appeared, and I have to say that luck is also a very important thing.

If you are lucky, you can become famous in a movie, while if you are unlucky, you will lose your honor for some inexplicable reasons.

"Best Supporting Actress...... Crowe. Sevigny! ”

When it came time for the award of Best Supporting Actress, the trend of the movie finally changed.

This time the award did not fall to the memory of Angelina. Julie in his hands, but gave it to Crow. Sevigny. This change is not surprising: because Angelina. Jolie was not nominated for an Oscar at all.

Levy's memory is that she won the award this year by relying on the movie Soul Shifter, but the script of the Soul Shifter Girl was in Winona's hands, and after Winona won the Oscar, she chose to take a break instead of continuing to make the movie, so the movie was not made at all - because there was no successful work, Julie naturally did not win the award.

And Crowe. Sevigny successfully got the award in his hands, and this actor was actually nominated for the first time, but the few people who competed with her were almost all half-hearted actors. Hollywood's Best Supporting Actress has always had a habit of promoting newcomers, and although she won this award, although it can be said to be an accident, it is not difficult to understand.

After all, Tony. Colette, Catherine. Keener, Samantha. Morton, these actors, are not much better than her, and the competition for the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress this year can be said to be without pressure.

In fact, it's not just the supporting actress, the heroine is the same: Slarry. Hivank's rival is none other than Julian. Moore, Annette. Benin, and Meryl, who has been doing so for ten years. Streep et al. This competition is not fierce either.

Looking at these people, Levy also sighed psychologically: after Truman's world was released, he once thought about applying for an Oscar nomination for Naomi. It's a pity that Naomi has too few previous works, and Truman's world has special requirements for the actors' performances, and this style Oscar is not very popular, so she was not able to be nominated.

It doesn't matter, though. Even if you don't get nominated, you will have a chance next time. Good actors don't have to worry about not being nominated – this nomination for Best Actor reflects that.

Kevin. Spacey, Lass. Crow, Sean. Pan, Denzel. Washington, Richard. Farnsworth -- The few actors nominated are almost all big-name personalities. With this strong lineup of competitors, even Levy couldn't hide his amazement when he looked at it.

And in Levy's memory, the person who won this award was Kevin Spacey. But Levy doesn't think Hollywood will award Kevin Spacey another Oscar so soon - after all, he also won Best Supporting Actor, and it is very difficult for an actor to win three Oscars, and it is almost unthinkable to win another Oscar so quickly.

"Oscar for Best Actor...... Rassell. Crowe! ”

Really...... While applauding, Levy also said in his heart: just as it is impossible for the Oscars to let Levy win two consecutive films, they will definitely not allow a certain actor to get too many honors. Kevin Spacey's nomination was nothing more than a chaperone, and this time, the Oscar went to Russell. Crowe.

Rassell. Crowe is now at the peak of acting, and his acting skills are indeed very commendable, and he won the award, and Levy also thinks it is very suitable. It's just that in Levy's memory, by next year, Oscar should be Russell. Crowe's Gladiator and Tom. Hanks's desert island for the rest of his life competed. In memory, Tom. Hanks won two Oscars, so the award was given to Rasso. Crowe also won the Oscar, so who will be this award next year?

The award cake is so obvious, why not give Jim Carrey one? Looking at the scene in front of him, Levy also sighed: Of course, the people competing here are all stars, and the Jim Carrey, who can't even get the nomination, can be said to be the most wronged person.

Levy's sigh was heard by Bundchen beside him. She didn't understand Levy's thoughts, and thought that Levi was just unhappy because he didn't get a single prize all night.

"Don't be discouraged, you won't get the prize this time, and there will be another time." She spoke soothingly.

"No, I'm not thinking about that, it doesn't matter if you don't win the award, what's more, isn't there a best director in the end?"

Hearing Bundchen's reassurance, Levy only smiled softly. Bundchen didn't even make out anything about his sigh.

Levy's words, Bundchen hurriedly responded, but in her heart, she was somewhat unimpressed. Truman's world didn't win any awards all night, how could it be possible to win another Best Director award at the end? How can a director be the best if all other parts of a movie are not good?

This should have been Levy's own request for relief - he should have considered how he could comfort him if he didn't win the award.

However, at this moment, the sound of awarding the award sounded again.

"Best Director...... "Truman's World", Nicholas Murray. Levy! ”

On the stage, names sounded again. Bundchen had all the words that had been stored in his mouth, but he swallowed them all back at this time.

How can it be? Did he really win Best Director? Where did his self-confidence come from?

Throughout the night, Levy can be said to be a disappointed person, and Truman's world has hardly won a single award, and he is extremely down. However, this last award for best director changed everything.

The film can be suppressed because of consecutive nominations, and actors can be excluded because of bad popularity, but Levy, who has been nominated for three consecutive years, completely overwhelms Sam, who is still a newcomer, in the competition for best director. Mendez. If you want to share the cake, how can you miss Levy's share?

Spielberg can beat Levy, James Cameron can beat Levy, but who else but them can make Levy lose? (To be continued......)
