If you can't think of something for a while, you might as well save it for later. Levy didn't come forward himself, but asked Alexander to say hello to a certain international superstar who starred in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon - Levy knew that she had a pretty good relationship with that Zhang Guoshi, and that Mr. Zhang was the most active one in the future domestic film trend, and everything could be solved by contacting him.

Levy didn't want to be too attentive, so he didn't want to go. This party didn't have much meaning for him other than canvassing, and after some hasty communication, he also chose to leave.

However, the Golden Globes party is over, but the enthusiasm of awards season is not over. When the results of the Golden Globes were known, people were more enthusiastic about the evaluation of the next awards.

"If the Golden Globe Awards are not able to play the role of a weather vane, then the next awards of major trade unions will have too much influence."

All of a sudden, there was a lot of interest in the awards of the major unions. For the various outposts of the Oscars, the Union Award and the Golden Globe Award are the two most important weather vanes, and it can even be said that they are much more important than all other awards. Since one of them is unwilling to give force, the other is naturally extremely important.

Therefore, after the Golden Globe Awards, the media also talked about it for a while.

If the directors' guild award is given to Soderbergh, then it is basically the general trend for Levy: although Levy's two films are good, but he won the Oscar last year, and this year's award is a major breakthrough - the Oscar has not been won by a director in a row for nearly 40 years, and this rule is not easy to break, as long as the union makes a statement and wants to maintain this rule, the situation will definitely be very unfavorable for Levy.

Of course. There may also be another situation, that is, the directors' guild will award the award to Levy: Levy has been nominated for an Oscar for four consecutive years, with such speed and frequency as no other in the world. If he is allowed to do this again, then Oscar will simply set aside a place in the future. There are many high-yield directors and high-quality film directors, but it is terrible to combine these two. Therefore, some people estimate that Hollywood may actually give Levy a second award: this award is also tantamount to telling him: this is the last time for you. Take a break for a few years, and you won't want it anymore!

If you can use an Oscar to make Levy not steal the spotlight every year in the future, these people in Hollywood will definitely be happy.

But in either case, the premise is that the union will really follow the rules exactly, without considering any of the implications. But everyone knows that it is impossible - Levy said that he would sweep the Oscars this year at last year's Oscars, and it is clear that he has been fully prepared this year. He wouldn't leave his fate in the hands of others so easily.

But what could Levy's approach be?

Soon, people also found out.

Although in terms of directorial battles, Levy and Soderbergh can now be said to be on par, but. In other respects, Levy has a way to win back - the Oscars and the Golden Globes, the biggest difference is not that the Golden Globes are more international, but that the Oscars are more technical. Pay more attention to technological development and internal refinement.

So, in this February, the approach to the awards. It's not just a Director's Guild Award.

First of all, in the award presented by the Photographers' Guild, Vary, who was in charge of Levy's Infernal Affairs. Pfister defeated Gladiator, Patriot, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and other films and won in one fell swoop.

"In a film that pursues big production and big effects, "Infernal Affairs" tells us with exquisite shooting techniques that the difficulty of shooting is not in the scene, but in the depth."

The media has commented on this quite well. This is not the first time that Levy's film has won an award. Compared with other movies of the same year, Levy's movies may not be big enough, but many nuanced places are carefully portraying characters through small details, which are ignored by other movies.

And after this award, soon, the news came from the screenwriters' guild: Levy's script of "Infernal Affairs" won the Best Adapted Screenplay Award in the Screenwriters Guild, defeating "Drug Network".

Unlike the Golden Globes, which are more important to the British, the Writers Guild doesn't care about anything else, they just pick good scripts. Therefore, Infernal Affairs still brought him an award.

Of course, it is a pity that he was not able to double the competition for best original screenplay, Levy's Lost in Tokyo and lost to the revue almost became famous.

The original didn't win the award, but the adaptation won, which seems a little sad. However, Levi doesn't seem to care much about this, and even behaves strangely. This is not the first time Levy has won the Writers Guild award, but, the difference is that this time Levy even ran to receive the award with great interest.

"I'm glad that everyone has recognized this script and recognized my dedication to the script. Being able to participate in the adaptation of this script is something I am extremely proud of, and I am very happy to be recognized. ”

Levy didn't think anyone else could figure it out, but they thought that Levy, as a person who likes the main creator, had never succeeded in adapting it, but this time it succeeded, and he was a little excited. However, Levy knew in his heart why: the screenwriters union's script application for awards must be clearly written about each person's specific contributions. Who is in charge of the main line, who is in charge of the dialogue, and who is in charge of polishing, these are all divided labor. The previous script won awards, and Levy was responsible for the main line column, and he knew in his heart that it was not his level. But this time, he was in charge of translation and editing, and he was sure that it was his own work.

However, apparently no one thinks so, and people think that Levi doesn't even care if he doesn't get the original script, and this is for publicity, so he will keep participating in various activities.

This kind of movie, which can be seen at all union awards, is simply annoying to repeat itself during awards season. However, people are painfully aware that it is almost impossible to stop him.

Soon, in the awards presented by the Editors Guild, Infernal Affairs won again: the sheer number of intersecting and parallel montages was simply the most serious consideration for the quality of the shooting, and in this regard, Infernal Affairs was the best at all.

And then the awards of the Film Sound Editing Society were also won by Levy: this award is mainly for dialogue, sound effects, and soundtrack, and Levy's films are also indisputably excellent in this regard.

For a movie, the director, actors, screenwriters, cinematography, editing, these aspects can be said to be the main aspects. And several important awards, Levy almost got them all.

Perhaps these do not say anything about the strength of the director himself. But being able to find better teammates should be considered an achievement in itself.

What's more, Levy's accomplishments this time seem to some to be more than that: for example, the Mixers' Guild award was given to the Grudge – the way the film uses sound effects to create an oppressive atmosphere that has benefited mixers a lot. The costume design and stuntmen were awarded to the X-Men, and it was well deserved as the best special effects blockbuster of the year.

Obviously, Levy's films have benefited from Levy as well.

Here, too, people can see the difference between Levy and Soderbergh: although the films they make seem to be good at first glance, the most fearful thing about anything is to scrutinize it in detail. Soderbergh's films are hardly able to win under the refinement of the various unions, how can such a combination result be higher than Levy's?

Public opinion is gradually tilting in Levy's side: the influence of these details has made the media begin to realize who is the better director.

Getting every detail in place is the most difficult thing to do.

And at this time, another important award came: SAG's Screen Actors Guild Awards began to be awarded.

The award for Best Actor was unexpectedly awarded to Infernal Affairs actor Brad Brown. Pitt, and the award for Best Supporting Actress was awarded to Charlize Brown. Theron. What was even more unexpected was that the award for Best Supporting Actor was also awarded to Liam Neeson.

This result can be said to make people see a lot of things clearly.

First of all, the two actors of Infernal Affairs, this time the nominee, will definitely be Brad. Pete - Although I don't know how Pete did it, everyone can see that this time Pete obviously negotiated an offensive and defensive alliance with Norton, and this time he pushed Pete to win the award first. And Norton, uncertain his chance, is on the fight club that may be released next year and is expected by many people.

And even Um Neeson and Robert De Niro performed well in Infernal Affairs, but there are also people who believe that their performances have not been able to break through their previous image too much. At the Golden Globe Awards, these two people were not even nominated, but now, Liam Neeson has won the Screen Actors Guild Award, which is no less than the Golden Globe Awards.

Best Actress is, unsurprisingly, Julia. Roberts, and Best Supporting Actress, is not surprising to Charlize Theron. However, if Julia. Roberts' Best Actress is the result of her ten years of hard work, Charlize Theron's Best Supporting Actress, but Levi is the result of her winnings.

Who would have thought that one year of SAG's four awards would be occupied by two films by one director? can make so many actors successful, isn't such a director the best director? (To be continued......)
