Chapter 298: Rick Female Female

"Due to the financial crisis, this year's stage was particularly shabby and there were no cabaret performances, but I still decided to create my own performance...... "In Hugh. Under Jackman's humorous remarks, the guests at the scene will laugh heartily - indeed, due to the financial crisis, the Oscars are particularly political This year, the scene is particularly small, and even the seats of the guests are very crowded, and the scene is not very luxurious, but because of this, the award presenters and nominees invited by the academy this year are more sufficient, and the venue can be said to be star-studded, which is much better than the rare situation of big-name stars last year, and there are also big names in the nominated films, which makes Hugh . Jackman's annual film skewer choreographed by a Tony Award-winning opera and film duo is a lot of fun, and there is plenty of material in the gags, which almost often bring to the big stars and provoke cheers.

"Oscar likes to play with a variety of actors, Kate. Winslet, ladies and gentlemen, the Englishman played a German and got an Oscar nomination, and he played an American -- and he got an Oscar nomination," Kate laughed a little embarrassedly to the thunderous applause, and Hugh continued, "like little Robert Jr. Downey, in "Tropic Thunder," he was Caucasian, he played an African-American, and he got a nomination -- and I, being Australian, played an Australian and starred in a movie called "Australia" --

Amid bursts of laughter, Hugh continued, "Hosting the Oscars here, but I'm still holding on to the hope of being nominated, and I believe it's a mistake on the part of the Academy, because Jennifer. Jefferson, ladies and gentlemen, as an American and the most well-known beauty of our time, played another classic American beauty—"

In the thunderous applause and whistles, Jennifer, who had resumed her long blonde hair style and was listening intently to Hugh's speech, appeared in the camera, although she was in the dark shadow of the audience, but the diamonds on her dress skirt and blonde hair, as well as the two crystal diamond earrings on her earlobes, still made her look fair and beautiful, which made people shine, she was amused by Hugh's exaggerated flattery, and she clapped her hands while laughing, she looked very emotional and full, it seems that you would not think of it at all, She actually hid from the media in her presidential suite for a month.

In this short shot, many people are also paying attention to the seat next to her, but unfortunately, Jennifer's left is Judy. Dench, on the right is Jennifer who appeared at some point. Aniston, the two actresses have a good relationship, Aniston and Jennifer's production company has worked together for the second time, and she was the guest of honor tonight and said something happily to Jennifer, which caused Jennifer to laugh again.

"—but she's been nominated," Hugh's tone was exaggeratedly sour, "two more, tell me, Jennifer and Kate, do you live on a different planet than we do, where Oscar nominations are flooded?" ”

Although this kind of rhetoric can be said to be on the verge of jokes and sarcasm, it is easy to make the atmosphere a little awkward, but Hugh's tone is very natural, and Jennifer has been laughing, plus Jennifer's shortlisted works this year are indeed very strong, almost dominating the entire awards season, so the audience did not feel that there was anything wrong, but smiled and applauded, and many viewers nodded secretly in front of the TV, agreeing with Hugh's statement: I feel that Kate is taking her by the way, but Jennifer, It's really too strong to be like an earthling, this year, in fact, no matter whether she wins the award or not, no one can shake her status in the film industry, just like the Beatles, Michael. Jackson's status in the music industry is so transcendent, even the previous one in which she won the title match does not seem abrupt and out of place now, it feels like a part of Jennifer's legend and the first step, but it makes people feel that the Oscars are insightful, and those two awards should be given like that.

After the opening singing, dancing and ridicule, the Oscars entered the awards process, starting with Best Supporting Actress at the beginning, and breaking the convention, invited five actors who won the Best Supporting Actress to the stage to present the awards, and introduced the nominated actresses one by one - Amy. Adams, Penelope. Cruz, Kate. Winslet, Melissa. Tomei, Viola. Davis, from "Child Abuse Suspicions," "Midnight in Barcelona," as well as "Life and Death Reading," and "Wrestler," several veteran actresses came out of the curtain one by one to introduce the five actresses -- and perhaps to take care of their emotions, Jennifer, who is younger than any of the nominees. Jefferson did not appear among the award presenters, and was represented by Kate Brown. Blanchett, Meryl. Streep and other actors commended the five actresses one by one, and in the end, the last year's Best Supporting Actress Kate Brown. Blanchett smiled and opened the envelope.

"—" she glanced at the envelope and said naturally, "thereader." ”

The applause immediately rang out, and the rest of the candidates applauded enthusiastically and graciously: no one was surprised by the result, and for all those who cared about the Olympic Awards, it was almost a matter of course - Kate has always been the favorite of the awards season, and she won all the nominations and awards with "Revolutionary Road" and "Life and Death Reading", and almost all the weather vanes were missed, and "Revolutionary Road" won Jennifer. Jefferson only failed to win the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress in a Drama Series, and there are also two nominations in hand tonight, and winning Best Supporting Actress can be said to be expected.

Compared with the surprise when she won the Golden Globe award, Kate was undoubtedly much calmer tonight, and after greeting the five guests one by one, she took the little golden man and walked to the podium with a somewhat complicated smile, "If I haven't fantasized about this scene, it's fake, when I was a little girl, I pretended this scene countless times with a shampoo bottle......"

It can be seen that although this supporting actress makes Kate a little excited, but at the same time it also makes her a little lost and frustrated, compared to the joy and excitement that burst out from the heart after some guests won the award, her award speech was obviously written early in the morning, and in the process of reading, although there were some small actions hinting at her joy, but this is not enough to see compared to her performance at the Golden Globe, but everyone also understands her feelings: After all, the Oscar double is rare to see in a thousand years, and now she has won the Best Supporting Actress, It probably means that she will miss the Best Actress later, for Kate, who is eager for the actress award, such a reaction may be difficult for her to control, although she knows that this will have a certain impact on the future Oscar journey, but at this emotional moment, she just can't play the Golden Globe level of joy. ―― At the Golden Globe, she was thrilled to have a classic award after she won her second award dramatically.

If you want to continue to double mention double in the double middle, it would not be so simple in the Oscars, if it weren't for Jennifer. Jefferson's last actress was only three years ago, and it can be said that Kate has almost no hope at all, and several actresses nominated for the lead actress are laughing and applauding, while all a little thoughtful, Meryl. Streep looked at the audience, Jennifer. Aniston inadvertently turned her head and looked at Angelina, who was sitting next to her ex-husband. Julie at a glance - this is also one of the rare opportunities for these three stars to be on the same stage after their marriage......

After Best Supporting Actress, the Oscars went on to award two awards for Best Original Screenplay and Best Adapted Screenplay, followed by Best Animated Feature and Best Animated Short Film. Aniston also took the stage to complete her award mission, perhaps to compete with her ex-husband, and tonight she looked radiant and smiling. Blake, a happy living treasure, made a big joke together, imitating the nominated animated characters, adding a burst of laughter to the audience.

After "Wall-E the Robot" won the award for Best Animated Feature Film without dispute, the Olympian Award came to the Best Art Direction category. Craig and Sarah. Jessica. Under Parker's introduction, the artistic direction difficulties of several candidate films were revealed: "The Duchess" that transformed an ancient castle to make it glamorous, "Batman: Night Knight" that created a gloomy Gotham, "Benjamin. The Curious Affair of Barton, as well as "A Week with Monroe", which recreates the British scenery in the 50s, from the countryside to the city to the set, the five films were unveiled one by one, which caused bursts of applause and raised the hearts of many audiences for the first time - this is the first award for which "Monroe" was nominated for an Oscar.

Although sitting on both sides of the audience area, it is not easy to see each other's movements, but Brad. Pete glanced at director David. After a glance, Finch couldn't help but look at Jennifer. Jefferson's direction, his mood is not too good right now -- in Brad's opinion, and Kate. Winslet, like him, also belonged because he bumped into Jennifer. Jefferson, one of those unlucky men, and even Brad thinks that this bad luck is not the first time this year, as seen in "Michael. Clayton begins as soon as you meet Jennifer. Jefferson, it's probably not going to be good.

made a wrong judgment on whether to audition for the role of Michael, which is somewhat self-inflicted, plus this matter has finally passed, Brad doesn't want to mention more, he is more depressed, although he realizes that Jennifer. Jefferson had a very good eye for this, but he never found an opportunity to get closer to and learn from this excellent producer, who was also one of his main competitors in the field of production. Jefferson had a unique vision and a good old man, but he really couldn't get close to the path she was taking—he had been bothered by it for the whole of last year: just as his old friend George Brown. Clooney eagerly pulled him along. Making the Olympics, deepening and hiding. Alone, and support for the old lama. Well, the political forces deepened the relationship when Jennifer. Jefferson was promoting the Chinese Olympics, not only running the torch relay, but also attending the opening ceremony in person, completely walking on the opposite side of George.

No American, if not politically extreme, should not be naturally close to the Beijing regime, and Brad is convinced that Jennifer's actions can only have one explanation, that is, she is very optimistic about the Chinese market, and in fact, from some of the rumors he has heard, she should and does think so. And this also made Brad pay attention to the fast-growing film market in China, and he read some articles that people even think that the Chinese market is far from complete, and the current staggering growth rate of 25% is just the beginning.

George may not care about any of this, he is very enthusiastic about politics. The Olympics are also aimed at promoting himself more on South Sudan and moving closer to politics, and Bullard knows that he wants to run for senator and even governor one day, which makes him choose between the Chinese market and his future political future. But Mr. Brad, on the other hand, has little interest in politics, and he now regrets that he made that stupid film, which is still on the Chinese government's ban list, which was a symbol of style and an honor that helped him secure better resources. But now it is also difficult for him to ride a tiger, unable to change the runway to show favor to China, and can only watch Jennifer. Jefferson seized the opportunity to harvest tens of millions of dollars at the box office in the Chinese market, although perhaps not so much, but this is still a very non-negligible number for the global box office - and, frighteningly, according to the information, all this is simply the beginning, and at the same time, it is almost impossible to get a release permit for films with him in Chinese mainland, and so far, only one "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" can break through the Iron Curtain.

Depressed to depressed, but the matter has come to this, Brad can only try to make up for the loss, under his persuasion, Angelina gave up expressing dissatisfaction with the Beijing Olympics, and also expressed caution on the relevant political position issues, no longer the same as before, high-profile support for Taiwan. Du, because some of her previous remarks were not so out of line, and unlike him, there is a whole work as evidence, at least there is still one person in the family who can hope to catch this express train, at least, if Beijing is an express train, Angelina is still eligible to get on the bus. So he is not so unavoidable about this matter, Brad really cares about the battle between the two heroes at the end of this year - "Benjamin. The Curious Case of Patton is his carefully crafted work, and at that time, it was envisioned that it would be a film with a double harvest of box office awards: there are gimmicks, stunts, but it emphasizes the acting skills of the actors, the plot has depth, it can be said that it is right for the Oscar appetite, plus this year's best film is weak, this film is based on Benjamin . Barton is the only brilliance, the only protagonist, and when he was researching the distribution policy at the beginning of the year, Brad thought that "Benjamin. The Curious Case of Barton is expected to win three major awards and break his own record at the box office. At that time, when he was doing market prospects, evaluating and measuring many opponents, he never thought that he was considered 'Jennifer. Jefferson's Foolishness's "A Week with Monroe" was so demonic that it created a box office miracle, not to mention, and it also set off a global craze, and at the end of the year, the masses were really talking about Jennifer spontaneously. How beautiful Monroe is, even if the PR press release is issued again, hyping Benjamin. Barton's gimmick of changing from old to young is completely useless, and this spontaneous attention is extremely sticky, spanning the fields of fashion, entertainment, history, and beyond countries. Jefferson has become the focus of the world, and with her Golden Globe testimonial, from the release of the movie in December to now, nearly 3 months have not given "Benjamin. The Curious Story of Barton" leaves a little space, which also makes his masterpiece completely lose to the other party in terms of momentum, not to mention the loss at the box office......

When the file was set at the beginning of the year, my idea was to use my own movie to suppress the momentum of "Monroe" - in order to be safe, lest "Monroe" have no competitors in the Christmas file, and the box office was good, giving her room to compete for awards and public relations, because according to common sense, the box office of special effects blockbusters must crush biopics, which also makes Brad's failure seem particularly stupid, and what makes him even more uncomfortable is that although "Benjamin" has been wronged, director David. Finch, who was also his best buddy, didn't seem to resent Jennifer because of it, and the mention of her was still full of praise, which gave him the feeling that his small group was divided: he could guess why David was so steady - Salvi. Although Tuqi was nominated for Best Director, the possibility of winning the award is very small, the Oscars may not give him this award out of the psychology of caring for newcomers, and as another film this year is very good, with 13 nominations under a strong public relations offensive, in terms of the number of nominations, David is a leading blockbuster in terms of the number of nominations, David is less of this strong opponent, the possibility of winning the award is correspondingly higher, and it can even be said that the lower the probability of winning his Best Actor and Best Picture of the film, the higher the probability of him winning the Best Director, at least in the publicity and public relations stage, after the filmmaker weighed, he has put "Benjamin. The PR focus of "The Curious Case of Barton" is on Best Director rather than Best Picture, and from that point of view, perhaps David should also be grateful to Jennifer and her "Monroe".

Everything is being calculated, and if it weren't for "Monroe", "Benjamin" would be the most watched blockbuster of the year. Winslet's performance is good, "Dialogue with Nixon" is fundamentally unpopular, "The Legend of Mick" is unpopular at the box office, and the theme is sensitive, "Revolutionary Road" is too dull and mixed, if it weren't for "Monroe" in ...... If it weren't for "Monroe"!

Although "Benjamin's" thirteen nominations made them more favored by the judges than "Monroe's" eight nominations, Brad certainly knew that this was not the case, and that was because "Benjamin" had one more special effects nomination than "Monroe", and its breakthrough in this area should not be underestimated. In terms of feedback from all of this year's Outpost Awards, the judges' love for "Monroe" is far greater than that of "Benjamin", and this point also makes him quite resentful: everyone has to pay for everything they do, just like him, "West. "Seven Years of Hiding Zang" allowed him to accumulate a certain style, attracted the attention of some groups, and also allowed him to get some resources that he didn't have originally, so he is paying the price now, although it hurts, but it is also reasonable. But this law is very important for Jennifer. Jefferson doesn't seem to work, just like she stole the limelight from "Benjamin", but still didn't lose David's favor, just like she hugged him warmly and talked and laughed with him just now, her flattery to Beijing didn't hurt her popularity among film critics, on the contrary, those who are enthusiastic and blind in political leanings, and who will always be enthusiastic about it, and those entertainers who cheer loudly for George's boycott of the Beijing Olympics are simply selectively blind to her. The fact that she carried the torch for Beijing was not regarded as a political event at all, as if she had forgotten about it did not prevent them from presenting her with the award at all, while at the same time, her films in China did not need to be censored or censored at all, and could easily be synchronized globally......

As far as the art director award is concerned, even from an outsider's point of view, Brad also thinks that "Benjamin" is more qualified for this award, after all, the set of this film runs through Benjamin's life, the era changes many and frequently, and the scenes are also varied, and the art direction is very exquisite, and compared with "Monroe", which is relatively single in the era and has fewer scenes, it is obviously more difficult, of course, "Monroe" has the advantage of beautiful scenes, but ......

"And Oscar is going to-" Daniel. Craig delivered the envelope to Sarah. Jessica. Parker walked up, glanced at him, smiled and said, "Donal. Woods, "A Week with Monroe"! ”

A round of applause erupted, and Brad forced himself to show a polite smile and applauded his competitor softly, feeling a greasy feeling in his heart: "As expected, it's one side again...... It seems to be another bafta. ”

Half a month ago, at the British Academy Film Awards held in London, "Monroe" defeated "Benjamin" in every encounter, and finally won eleven awards. Jefferson got her first BAFTA – and of course, given the film's British setting, it's no surprise that it did. What made Brad angry was Oscar's decision: really? The art director didn't give Benjamin, really?

In the Oscar nominations, the two films overlapped in seven categories: Best Cinematography, Best Editing and Best Costume Design, Best Director, Best Art Direction, Best Makeup, Best Picture, that is to say, only one of the eight nominations for "Monroe" for Best Actress did not coincide with "Benjamin", and most of this is because this film does not have a real heroine, Kate. Blanchett is more of a supporting actress in terms of roles. And among these categories, Brad thinks that he has a chance of winning is the best art direction, the best makeup, and the best editing he values the most, this award is the vane of the Oscar for Best Picture, and only in few cases does not coincide with the best picture, for example, last year, "Spy 3" won this award, and the grand prize was given to "Michael. Clayton", Brad believes that the possibility of such a divergence again this year is very small, so this award can probably also see the attribution of this year's best picture.

Best Cinematography, "A Week with Monroe"; Best Makeup, "A Week with Monroe"; Best Costume Design, A Week with Monroe...... Jennifer. Again and again, Jefferson stood up and applauded the winners, and the "Monroe" crew neatly occupied a row, appearing on the big screen again and again, being taken by the camera, Salvi. Tucci's reserved smile, Judy. Dench's smiling expression, as well as Jennifer's celebratory hug with Jefferson sitting next to her every time, and the intimate conversation between the two, are all strong stimuli for Brad, although his personality is not fierce and impulsive, and after many years in the entertainment industry, his surface kung fu will definitely not be worse than anyone else, but now, he does find that it is getting harder and harder to show a sincere smile......

And the Oscar will go to -- Michael. O'Connor, The Duchess! "In the end, "Monroe" missed a nomination, although it did not fall to "Benjamin", but it also narrowed the gap between the two films, during this period, "Benjamin" also won two awards, "Best Visual Effects" and "Best Sound", both of which "Monroe" did not get the nomination award. Halfway through the awards ceremony, Brad glanced at his watch, he adjusted his breath and waited for the next award, the best editing.

"I specifically asked for this award because I really love editing action footage...... "Will Brown. Smith rubbed his hands together energetically and rose from the audience, and he gushed out, "The clip allows us to see how Iron Man is handsome in the city center, and how Batman fights the Joker......

This year's Best Editing nominees are "Dialogue with Nixon", "Milk", "Monroe", "Benjamin" and "Batman", in addition to "Batman", it can almost be regarded as a prophecy of Best Picture, and therefore, "Life and Death Reading", which did not receive this nomination in this year's Best Film, is equivalent to going out early, in Brad's ears, Will's voice is so noisy, and the funny jokes he prepared for the awards are so boring, he desperately hopes that time can be fast-forwarded to make this difficult wait have a result- Whether it's "Benjamin" or "Monroe", if he can have an answer, whether he wins or loses, this feeling of trepidation really shouldn't continue.

"And the Oscars will be presented to—" Will opened the envelope, "Lee. Smith - Batman: The Dark Knight! ”

The cheers rang out: this was the second Oscar win for the year's box office winner, before Heath. Ledger's frustration for Best Supporting Actor, Jean Philip. Hoffman won another Oscar for "Child Abuse Suspicion", and lost to "Benjamin" for best sound effects, but won back a city in best sound editing, which can be regarded as an Oscar that takes into account the popularity of the public. - And many people in the industry are a little surprised by this result, "Batman" was not selected for the best film, which also shows that no matter what the final award result is, this is extremely rare, and another year of best editing and best editing should not coincide years, and unlike last year, last year's "Spy 3" editing can be called a miracle, showing off skills to a certain level, winning the award can be justified, this year's "Batman", there is no too shiny place in the editing......

"It seems that Oscar is determined to keep the suspense until the last moment." Brad also showed a wry smile, whispered to his lover with emotion, and felt Angelina squeeze his hand, and he quickly cheered up: This is actually good news for "Benjamin", and the fact that he did not directly give this award to "Monroe" shows that the attribution of the award is also controversial within the academy, and a considerable number of judges are interested in giving the award to Jennifer this year after "Michael" won the award last year. Jefferson had great doubts.

The mood turned cloudy, and for Brad, the next awards seemed to be less boring and difficult, and after a cabaret performance, the awards gradually came to an end: Best Documentary Feature, Short Film, Best Foreign Language Film, Best Song......

In the competition for Best Actor, Brad lost to Sean without any suspense. Pan, this is not an unexpected result, this year's outpost award he has received a few nominations, and Sean Penn is a complete kill, although when the results are revealed, he is still a little disappointed - sitting next to him not far from Hiss. Ledger also showed grievances, but this was not too unexpected after all, and Brad quickly covered up his emotions, smiled and applauded Sean, watched the five actresses appear on stage one by one, and also stood up with the crowd, applauding and cheering for the five famous actresses in the sensational atmosphere of the audience, bringing the atmosphere of the audience to a peak.

"Anne. Hathaway, "Shirley. McLean, the 56th Oscar actress in 1983, said, "We like your princess......"

"Kate. Winslet. "Last year's 80th actress Marion. Cotillard, the lucky young woman gazing at her peers, said affectionately, "Each of your roles, push the boundaries of the impossible even further......"

"I was once lucky enough to be recognized by the Oscars," said Harry. Berry, the 74th actress in 2002, said with a smile, "I am also very fortunate to be able to introduce to the world another outstanding woman who has appeared on the Oscar stage, Jennifer. Jefferson, each of your works is an amazing masterpiece, in "Iron Man" we witness your comedic talent, and "A Week with Monroe" shows the world that there is no shortage of contemporary Hollywood like Marilyn. Monroe, Vivien Leigh, Audrey. Hepburn, an actress who values both genius and beauty......"

The next nominee, people don't know where to start," the most well-known, the earliest to become famous, in 1961, the 34th Academy Awards, in 1992 won the Oscar for Best Achievement Sophia. Roland said indifferently, "Each of her roles represents an insurmountable peak, so let's start here, Meryl. Streep ......"

"In 1928, a mother who lost her beloved son ...... "Nicole. Kidman, the 75th actress in 2003, said with a smile, "In Angelina. Julie's interpretation ......"

With the beautiful words of these five actresses, Anne. Hathaway burst into tears, Kate. Winslet excitedly said thank you, while Jennifer. Jefferson smiled happily. Streep also calmly gestured to the camera to thank her, Angelina. Julie's expression is natural, just a frequent smile to express gratitude, not won the award affirmation, won many awards and nominations, although the same has not been awarded, but I have a very personality and other different situations are fully revealed, each of their introductions have received crazy applause and cheers, this is also the strongest Oscar nominations in the past, the five actresses are popular, acting, box office, awards are the choice of the moment, have a sensation around the world, but also have lucrative commercial films, solid art films, Although there are different hopes of winning awards based on their personal circumstances and the quality of the films they entered, in terms of their personal conditions, the 2009 Oscars can be said to have no weaklings. The five candidates and the presenters on the stage complemented each other, and the strongest lineup even overwhelmed the Best Actor award just awarded, and the invisible domineering made the audience, even in front of the TV, hold their breath, and they were at a loss in these five striped editing frames, and they didn't know who to pay attention to.

The applause gradually stopped, and the guests in the audience had already taken their seats. Cotillard took out the envelope, tore it open, and respectfully handed it to Sophia. Roland, Sophia took the envelope a little further away and squinted slightly.

"Where is Oscar going—" she whispered.

In the live soundtrack, the drums beat nervously, Anne. Hathaway clenched her hands into fists on her chin, and Kate. Winslet's eyes were serene, and Meryl. Streep smiled, Angelina. Julie as if nothing happened, Jennifer. Jefferson was still smiling happily, and in the silence of the audience, Sophia. Roland read, "Jennifer. Jefferson, "A Week with Monroe"! ”

With her words, Jennifer on the big screen. Jefferson's silhouette was immediately put to the maximum, and the audience erupted in the most enthusiastic applause, and the four contenders also applauded. Judy next to Jefferson. Dench, Salvi. Tuqi and the others all stood up, and all the guests in the audience also stood up again to cheer for her. Jefferson, on the other hand, was unusually calm, at first, she sat still, maintaining a polite smile, and after a few seconds, as if realizing that she had really won such an honor again, her expression changed-

The pleasant smile is gone, Jennifer. Jefferson closed his eyes slightly, as if to stabilize his emotions, and then, on this beautiful face, a confident, satisfied, and even somewhat smug smile floated up, unlike the overjoyed performance of the rest of the winners, not as surprised and excited as she was when she won the first Oscar. Jefferson can be said to have accepted the news very justifiably and very naturally, and almost everyone who looked at her could feel it: this time, the Oscars were no longer an unexpected reward for her, not the ecstasy of a lifelong wish to come true, but a kind of self-confidence that came naturally...... It's a kind of domineering that gives up on me!

seems to feel her huge self-confidence, and feels the aura of this legendary actress who has won multiple box office miracles and many important awards, the whistles and coaxes that originally sounded faintly in the guest seat have weakened, but the applause has become more enthusiastic. Jefferson calmly walked onto the podium, hugged the five actresses one by one, and finally received her fourth Academy Award from the smiling Sophia.

When she turned around and held the little golden figure high, the audience stood up, and the camera shot overhead over the Kodak Theater, passing over rows and rows of cheering audiences, and finally returned to the circular stage, surrounded and congratulated by five actresses. Jefferson held the little golden figure in his hand and smiled quietly, and she stood there as if she owned the place—

As soon as the shutter sounded, this classic scene was realistically fixed, preserved in the digital reserve, and solidified into eternity.
