Section 107 Best Actor
After the Best Original Screenplay was acquired, the eavesdropping storm was not left empty-handed at the Oscars this time. Levy, who returned to the venue again, was much more relaxed when he received congratulations from everyone around him.
It's just that Levy also noticed that on the other side of the seat, it seems that the expressions of the crew on the mind catcher's side are not particularly good. When Levy returned, except for Matt Damon, who was able to keep a fairly gentle smile and congratulate Levy, both the film's producer Weinstein and the film's other screenwriter. Affleck, his face was very ugly.
Levy didn't see their expressions. Perhaps, not winning the award is not a bad thing for them: in memory, Matt Damon's fame has increased after this play, but his acting skills have declined a lot, and he can no longer find the feeling in the soul catcher, while Ben Affleck has played for many years with the reputation of an Oscar winner, winning five gold sour plums in three years, and ruining many big-budget movies on his own. Maybe it's a good thing that the two of them didn't become famous, and if Matt Damon had worked harder, Ben Affleck had gone behind the scenes earlier, it might have been a good thing for themselves.
Moreover, their films are not without their achievements - Robin. Williams also won the Best Supporting Actor award, which also made Levy a little envious: being able to win an Oscar-level actor is also very beneficial to their future path.
The awards ceremony is almost over, with awards for Best Foreign Language Film, Best Documentary, Best Animated Short Film and more. It's all decided in the same way, and these things have little to do with the eavesdropping storm. In the continuous awards, Levy also watched with relish.
And after the award for Best Cinematography was awarded. Levy's mind is all on the issue of Best Actor.
"Best Cinematography, Russell. Carpenter, Titanic! ”
Sure enough, the best cinematography was given to the Titanic, which did have made great progress in technology. With today's series of awards, the award of this award is not surprising at all.
Wally, sitting next to Levy. Walter, when he saw the award being awarded, was not disappointed, on the contrary. He let out a sigh of relief, and then immediately applauded.
"To be honest, I didn't even prepare a speech, and if I did, I might say something wrong." Listening to Carpenter talking above, Wally also whispered, "It's been two weeks since the nomination, and it has been extremely tormenting, and I always feel that no matter how small the hope is, maybe there is a one percent chance of luck." Now that I finally know it's not mine, I'm relieved. ”
Wally's words are half-true, and it is probably true to say that he is relieved: as long as the Titanic is not announced to win the award, he will still be half-breathing. And to say that he is happy now, I'm afraid it's not true. It is still difficult for him to let go of the awards.
But Levy knew that there was no way around it: the award for best cinematography. It's hard to fall into the hands of other movies. In the Oscar's many years of history, Best Picture has not won Best Cinematography. There were only five in total, and Best Picture was not nominated for Best Cinematography. Not even once - the technique of film shooting is very important, and the photography technique determines the success or failure of the film in a sense, and this award cannot be left behind.
The best cinematography was awarded to Titanic, which is equivalent to saying that there is only one award left related to the eavesdropping storm.
However, if Kevin Spacey can win Best Actor, then this is also a good thing. The first time he made a movie, he won an actor, which is also a great achievement - although this actor is more about his own 30 years of accumulation, and it has nothing to do with himself as a director - however, such a good reputation, Levy is also a little interested.
There is basically no hope for other awards, and now the rest is the best actor.
Awards are being awarded, and at this time, it has come to an end.
"Best Actress, Helen. Hunter, perfect! ”
Finally, it was time for the last few awards, and the Best Actress unsurprisingly fell to the perfect heroine Helen. Hunt's hand - the reason why it is not surprising is that of the five nominees for Best Actress at this year's Oscars, four are British, and only Helen Hunt is in the hands of Hunt. Hunter is an American alone, and she is born a lot ahead in the race for this honor. And, Jack. Nicholson himself is also a very good actor, and when he plays with him, he can always bring out the other party's acting skills, which also makes Helen Hunt's performance much more favorable.
Actresses are not as good as male stars, and few people require actresses to carry the box office alone, so few people require actresses to have extremely good acting skills. Even if the performance was a little worse, Helen Hunt still won the Oscar.
But this is also the most watery Oscar actress in recent years...... Levy muttered in his heart that if he wanted to surpass her in parallel goods, he would only be Gwyneth next year. Paltrow too.
Of course, Levy will not show these thoughts, on the contrary, he also applauds at this time. It's just that while clapping, he also gave Kevin Spacey a look.
The Oscars sometimes like to strike a balance, and if the best actress is perfect, then the best actor is hard to say.
Kevin Spacey shook his head slightly: he still clearly remembered the last time Jack. When Nicholson won the Oscar, it was a drama where both the male and female protagonists won awards. It's not okay to underestimate Nicholson, this actor is definitely the top actor in Hollywood.
"Next, we are going to award the Best Actor...... The competition for Best Actor this year is fierce, with Jack, Kevin, Peter, and Dustin...... Does Matt Damon have a feeling that he has strayed into the senior competition? ”
The host's ridicule made Matt Damon laugh helplessly. He himself knew that he had basically no hope of competing with these people.
But this is not a bad thing - losing to these people, but there is no shame at all, and it can also make people complain for him, saying that his acting skills are very good, but he only loses when he encounters monster-level competition. Maybe after a few years, if the publicity is good enough, it will become: Oscar owes him a little golden man and so on, and Matt Damon will be satisfied with such a result.
"Let's have the award presenters...... Jack. Lemon! ”
Jack Claremont?
Levy has heard of this actor, he is now the only one who has won the best actor at three major film festivals, and he is recognized as a good actor. There is a story in Hollywood that says that after becoming famous, he visited his teacher, and his teacher said that he was just the protagonist of the story of good luck, that is, him.
Of course, Levy is well aware that he wasn't just lucky. The actor's acting skills are indeed excellent, not only is his acting skills excellent, but he is also the most recognized person in Hollywood who likes to help and promote the younger generations.
At least Levy knew that Kevin Spacey had received a lot of guidance from him and had a very good personal relationship with him.
Seeing him come up to present the award, Levy basically guessed who would win the award: the Oscars are held every five years, and the people invited are very important.
On the big screen, the movies starring the five winners flashed one by one, and the camera stopped on the faces of the five people. Jack. Nicholson was already wearing his big sunglasses, but the usual smile on his lips was gone. Dustin Hoffman and Matt Damon both had a very relaxed look, while Kevin Spacey and Peter. Fangda looked nervous.
Levy understands this mood: no matter how little hope is, at this time, there is still a glimmer of hope in people's hearts.
"Best Actor Winner - Kevin Spacey!"
Jack. Lemmon spoke with a smile on his face, and to a round of applause, Kevin Spacey stood up. He hugged his mother, then shook hands with the crew members one by one before stepping onto the podium.
"Thank you, Jack. Lemmon has always taken care of me like a father, and he has helped me a lot. I am very happy that Lemmon has this award in his hands. Kevin Spacey, who was standing on the stage, couldn't see any indescribable excitement in his expression, and he controlled his emotions very well, "This is the most glorious moment of my life, and of course, I hope that my time will not go downhill from now on...... Thank you to my agent, Juan, and of course, most of all, to my mother - thank you for being here, for coming to see my award, I don't care what they say, I love you, and I'm still going to bring you to this international occasion. ”
Kevin Spacey has a close relationship with his mother, which everyone knows, and his gratitude to his mother has made people applaud again. And after saying these words, Kevin Spacey continued.
"At the same time, I would also like to thank Director Levy, who gave me this opportunity to star in this film, and he gave me this opportunity to become a better actor. Thank you for his help to me. He pointed out my shortcomings and made me better and better. Just like Wiesler in the movie, the process of a person becoming better is always uplifting, and this movie has given me strength and made me better. Wiesler has become better, I have become better, and I believe that anyone who has seen this movie will also be happy for the change of characters in the movie. As an actor, I'm proud that my work has been recognized, thank you, thank you again, thank you! ”
In the midst of applause, Levy was also reflecting on Kevin Spacey's words. Yes, what could be more important than people constantly getting better? The more movies are made, the better they are, and the most important thing for them is to keep making better movies! (To be continued......)
ps: The shelves have been delayed for some time, a little late, please forgive me.
