1948.Chapter 1948 1948 Breathing Room

Among the winners of the 55th Golden Globe Awards, "Titanic" won four awards and was unbeatable; "L.A. Confidential" won three heavyweight trophies, followed by Hugo who finally won Best Actor in a Drama Series, but the biggest surprise came from Charlize Theron's Best Supporting Actress award.

After making a name for himself in "Before Sunrise", Charlize once again won acclaim for his brilliant performance in "L.A. Confidential", and won the Golden Globes on the night without any suspense. Among Charlize's four rivals, Joan Cusack, who is "the groom's crook". Cusack), "Ice. Storm)" of Sigourney. Weaver), Gloria Stewart of the Titanic. Stuart) is actually not very competitive, and the real strongest opponent is Julianne Moore, who was nominated for acting for the first time with "Unruly Night".

"Boogie Night" is arguably the best work of this year's independent films, making director Paul Thomas Anderson famous in one fell swoop, and Julianne also starred in "Jurassic Park 2: The Lost World", which can be said to be in full swing.

But in the end, Charlize relied on her excellent performance and rapid upward momentum to successfully win the first major award ceremony trophy of her life. At this time, Charlize was only twenty-two years old.

When receiving the award that night, Charlize was quite excited, but she did not lose her temper, with a bright smile on her face, and thanked Hugo, Kevin, Russell and other co-actors for their great cooperation during the filming, especially Hugo gave her a lot of help.

In addition, Kevin Spacey also won the award again after the previous year's "Extraordinary Suspects", this time he defeated the incomparably formidable rivals, Robin Williams of "Mindcatcher", Greg Kinnell of "Perfect", Anthony Hopkins of "Broken Locks", and Burt Reynolds (Burt) of "Unruly Night". Reynolds) and "The Rainmakers." Rainmaker)" of Strong-Walter.

Indeed, because the competition for Best Supporting Actor was so fierce, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association gave six nominations for the first time, which also became a ridiculous and generous decision. But no one can deny the fierce competition, and in the end, Kevin still won with the fierce spark of playing against Hugo!

"L.A. Confidential" unexpectedly won in the three acting departments of leading actor, supporting actor, and supporting actress, but unfortunately passed by the screenwriting award, which also became the biggest surprise of the night.

Although the three trophies of "L.A. Confidential" are dazzling, but the "perfection" that also won the three trophies is not inferior, this critically acclaimed Hugo's second screenwriting work, won the best picture in the musical comedy category, in addition to the best actor in the musical comedy category, the best actress in the musical comedy category, it can be said that it is the biggest winner in the musical comedy category, and even shows a strong momentum that is not inferior to the "Titanic".

"Perfect", like "L.A. Confidential", swept thousands of troops in the acting department, and the two works have become the most typical representatives of the dazzling sparks of the strong cast in 1997, which reminds people of the "Death Row Walk" and "Seven Deadly Sins" the year before last.

But to everyone's surprise, Hugo was not able to win the Best Screenplay Award for the first time on the basis of "Perfection", and "L.A. Confidential" also passed by the award.

In the competition for the best screenplay at this year's Golden Globe Awards, "Soul Catcher", "Perfect", "Los Angeles Confidential", "Titanic" and "Be a Big Hero" launched fierce competition, which is undoubtedly the most competitive award, even surpassing the Best Picture Award in the drama category of "Titanic" and "Los Angeles Confidential".

At the Writers Guild of America, which ended not long ago, "Perfect" won the Best Original Screenplay Award, while "L.A. Confidential" won the Best Adapted Screenplay Award. It can be said that the solid and outstanding scripts of these two works have absolutely unbeatable in the past year, truly showing people once again the way typical plot scripts are written, making people deeply feel the importance of scripts, and in the case of the official arrival of the blockbuster era led by computer special effects, "Perfect" and "L.A. Confidential" have once again re-emphasized the unshakable importance of traditional films.

When it came to the Golden Globes, almost everyone thought it was a "perfect" and "L.A. confidential" contest, not only because it was the choice of the Writers Guild of America, but also because it was the two most high-profile plays of the past year. Most media outlets agree that the Hollywood Foreign Press Association will inevitably choose Hugo Lancaster because it is not only the right choice, but also a wise choice and a suitable choice.

But the result made everyone gasp, not "perfect", not "L.A. confidential", nor "Titanic", but "soul catcher"!

"Soul Catcher" can be said to be in the limelight at the end of the past year, even surpassing the previous year's "Twelve Monkeys", this work written by Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, two little-known newcomers, won a full house, not only won $138 million at the box office, but also received unanimous applause from film critics, winning four major nominations at the Golden Globe Awards, Best Picture in a Drama, Best Actor in a Drama, Best Supporting Actor and Best Screenplay.

In fact, at the previous Writers Guild of America Awards, "Mind Catcher" has already received a lot of praise and recognition, and many film critics associations have awarded this work the best original screenplay - and this is only the first screenwriting work of Matt and Ben, the two young talents are only 27 and 25 years old respectively, and the future is limitless. "Soul Catcher" has also become a dark horse at the end of the year, and the names "Matt Damon" and "Ben Affleck" have also become the brightest new stars.

However, in the end, the Writers Guild of America did not honor the two young men, but gave praise to "Perfect" and "Los Angeles Confidential". The result was not controversial, as the two plays were truly outstanding and well deserved.

However, when it came to the Golden Globe Awards, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association surprised everyone, and chose the "soul catcher" for the first time, giving up the "perfect" and "Los Angeles confidential" that shined at the Writers Guild of America, which is not only a dark horse, but also reminds people of the grudge between the Golden Globe Awards and Hugo - to be honest, Hugo's "perfect" this time is indeed eligible for the award, but the Golden Globe Award gave Hugo the trophy for Best Actor in a Drama, Therefore, this result cannot be said to be absolutely unacceptable, but it is still confusing.

Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, two young people, relied on this "soul catcher" to quickly rise to the top and became representatives of young Hollywood talents in one fell swoop, coupled with George Clooney, who failed to rise in the past year, and Leonardo DiCaprio, it can be said that the competition for actors in Hollywood is completely open, not to mention that there is no Brad Pitt who has been able to go further, even Hugo, Tom Cruise, Tom Hanks, who are currently leading the momentum, They all felt the threat acutely.

In any case, the Golden Globe Award for Best Screenplay chose "Soul Catcher" instead of "Perfect" or "L.A. Confidential" or "Titanic", which also became the biggest upset of the night.

Still, among the major awards, "Titanic", "Perfect" and "L.A. Confidential" completed the main awards, and the only two that slipped through the net were Best Screenplay and Best Actress in a Drama - which went to Judi Dench. Dench) relied on "Mrs. Brown." Brown)" was successful.

This is undoubtedly the Golden Globe Award with the most concentrated list of winners, among the thirteen awards in the film department, "Titanic" won four awards, "Perfect" and "L.A. Confidential" each won three trophies, "Soul Catcher" and "Mrs. Brown" won one award, and the Belgian film "Rose Boy Dream (Ma. Vie。 En。 Rose)" won the Best Foreign Language Film, which made up the list of winners of the 55th Golden Globe Awards.

The Best Screenplay Award for "Soul Catcher" can be called a tiger's mouth, which has also become the biggest upset of the entire awards ceremony; Hugo, on the other hand, became the biggest winner as the producer of the two works "Perfect" and "L.A. Confidential", and even surpassed the biggest winner "Titanic", the only flaw is that Hugo was not able to make a breakthrough in the screenwriting department.

Although the Hollywood Foreign Press Association has sought a perfect balance - rewarding Hugo with the best actor in the drama category, and replacing it with the fall of the screenwriter department; Use "Soul Catcher" to create surprises and upsets, "Titanic", "Perfect", and "Los Angeles Confidential" stand on three legs...... But even if people know that this is Michael's intention, they have to praise the skill of this hand to divide the cake!

The list of winners was hard to criticize, even in the best screenplay category, so after the ceremony, the Hollywood Foreign Press Club was given a precious breathing room, and this time the media did not turn the finger at the Golden Globes again, but enthusiastically launched the Oscar prospects.

Since the screenwriting department of the Oscars is divided into two parts, original and adapted, "Perfect" and "Soul Catcher" will have a fierce battle in the Best Original Screenplay department, who will have the last laugh? And what will be the outcome of the head-to-head duel between Hugo for Best Actor in a Drama and Jack Nicholson for Best Actor in a Musical Comedy? Where will the best picture contenders for "Titanic", "Perfect" and "L.A. Confidential" go?

This time the Oscars are bound to be lively.

Michael finally let out a long breath and fought his way through the chaos, which consumed almost all his energy, but he also knew that this was only a short break, and the future of the Golden Globe was still full of thorns.
