On March 25, 1954, the Oscars were held simultaneously at two locations, the Raiden Wattage Theatre in Los Angeles and the nBC Century Theatre in New York. On this day, the stars are shining brightly and the stars are gathered.

The Academy Awards, officially known as the Academy Awards for Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, were established in 1927 and are held annually in Los Angeles, USA. It has been a prestigious name for more than half a century. It does not reflect the process and success of American film art, but also has a non-negligible influence on film art in many countries around the world.

Originally, this award was not called "Oscar", but it was later called by people.

There are different theories about the origin of the name, but the more credible one is that in 1931, Margaret, the female caretaker of the library of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, was named Margaret? After carefully studying the Academy Awards, Herrich exclaimed, "Ah! He really looks like my uncle Oscar! The reporter next door wrote: "The staff of the Academy of Arts and Sciences affectionately call their golden statues "Oscars." Since then, this alias has spread far and wide.

Also, the famous actress Betty? Tyvess stated that she was the first to name the Oscars. She said that when she won the Academy Award for the second time, she inadvertently called her husband Haimon? Oscar? Nelson's name "Oscar" was heard by reporters interviewing at the scene, so it spread all at once.

In addition, there is another theory that the Hollywood columnist Skoolsky forgot the spelling of the statuette when he wrote a story on his typewriter on the night after the sixth awards ceremony, and suddenly remembered a scene from a musical and dance he had seen in the past.

It was a group of comedians who walked up to the orchestra pit and jokingly said to the conductor, "Oscar, do you want cigarettes?" The conductor stretched out his hand to take it, but the comedians avoided it without giving them cigarettes. This caused a burst of laughter. Skoolsky believes that the Academy Trophy symbolizes ** and should be comic.

So he wrote in the report: "Catherine? Hepburn won an Oscar for her role as Ava in "Amazing". ”

According to various analyses, the first statement above is more credible.

Because Betty? The best actress award was won in 1935, by a time when the Oscar was already a household name. As for Skolsky's belief that the Golden Statue should be comic, such a view may not be accepted by the majority of people in the film industry.

Originally, as the owner of the film company, Alex was able to attend. The Oscar organizers also strongly invited him to come over, and everyone wanted to see this legendary genius prodigy. He thought about it for a while, but decided not to attend. He still wants to wait until the time for the award for "The Sound of Music" before appearing at the Oscars.

Hepburn and the rest of the crew were of course going to attend, and they were going to the Oscars here in New York.

On the day Hepburn went to the Oscars, Alex said, "You're going to get Best Actress!" Certain! ”

Hepburn was very excited when she heard this, she wanted to say something, but she didn't say anything. Eventually, she kissed Alex on the face and said goodbye to getting into the car. She still had a stage play at that time, and she had to hurry up to perform.

On the night of the awards, Hepburn hurried to the award site after completing the curtain call of the stage play "The Mermaid", changed his costume in a taxi, and trotted all the way under the escort of the police.

In this year's Academy Awards, "Roman Holiday" was nominated for a total of 9 Oscar Best Awards, which are Best Picture, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Cinematography, Best Art Direction and Set, Best Costume Design, and Best Editing.

The host on this side of the New York scene was Fredricmarch (Fredricmarch), whose original name was Frederick McIntyre Bickle, who was born in Wisconsin on August 31, 1897, and worked as a theater performer in college. He began his acting career on the Broadway stage in the 2o's and made his debut on stage in 1921 under his original name, showing a strong talent for acting and interpreting various types of roles.

Frederick is a man with a tall nose and sharp eyes, and has a very handsome appearance. He has won the Oscar twice and has a wealth of stage experience. Under his auspices, the whole award ceremony was full of fun.

At first, he told a few jokes, and then handed out some inconsequential awards. When it was finally time to award the Best Picture award, everyone immediately sat up straight and listened attentively to what the host was saying.

The people on the side of "Roman Holiday" are also in spirit, because their films are also nominated. William Whitt, in particular, was very nervous. As the director of this film, it would be a great honor if he could win the Best Picture Award.

Frederick picked up the list of winners and said: "The nominees for Best Picture are "Julius Caesar", "Thousand Autumns in the Holy Robe", "Loyal Soul in Troubled Times", "Roman Holiday", "Wonder of the Wilderness"! ”

Frederick paused, and after everyone was holding their breath, he said, "The winner of the Best Picture award was ....... 'Troubled Times'!" ”

Hearing this result, some people were happy and some were sad. William's heart suddenly fell into the air, and it took a long time to return to normal.

The next important award was Best Actor, and for this, the people of the "Roman Holiday" crew did not care. They are not nominated for this award.

The nominees are William Holden (lead actor in Cell 17), Marlon Brando (lead actor in Julius Caesar), Richard Burton (lead actor in The Holy Robe), Montgomery Clift (lead actor in Troubled Times), and Burt Lancaster (lead actor in Troubled Times).

In the end, Marlon Brando, who had the highest voice, was defeated and was robbed of the actor by William Holden.

A few small awards were awarded in the middle, and the host gossiped for a while, and after everyone calmed down, he was ready to present another important award tonight - Best Actress!

Frederick picked up the list of winners and said, "I see several beautiful women ready to go on stage to accept the awards. But there's only one prize, who am I going to give it to? What a headache! ”

Everyone laughed when they heard it, which made some actresses look like they were eager to try, and they all became old gods.

Fredericka grew up and said, "There are ....... nominated for Best Actress"

"Li Sili Kanon's "Lonely Phoenix"!" A clip of a cute little girl performing on the same stage with a puppet appears on the screen, and the girl's name is Lily! She sings "Hello, Lily" from the bottom of her heart.

"Lonely Wind" tells the story of 16-year-old Lily who came from her hometown of Manaz to join the baker, but the person has died, and she follows the magician Mark she meets to his troupe. The dashing and enthusiastic Mark helped her find a job, but she was fired for clumsiness......

"Ava Garner's Red Dust!" Accompanied by the host's words, a woman with a hot body appeared on the screen. The footage of her hugging and kissing affectionately with two men respectively.

"Red Dust" depicts the expedition member Vidor, who falls in love with the showgirl Elos, and quickly fights hot. But when anthropologist Donner shows up with his wife Linda, Victor turns his love goals to Linda, causing an irreparable triangular tragedy.

"Deborah Cole's Troubled Times!" The film is based on the Pearl Harbor incident, exposing all kinds of ugly and dark phenomena such as factional struggles within the US military, officers flying high-flying, and mistreating soldiers.

Finally, Frederick pronounced out the long-awaited name: "Audrey Hepburn's Roman Holiday!" ”

The scene on the screen shows Princess Anne and Joe riding bicycles around Rome, and in the scene of "The Mouth of Truth", Princess Anne reacts to the real emotions of pretending to have her hand bitten off by the mouth of a stone statue. Let everyone feel that their hearts are full of joy. The rest of the nominated films no one cares about,

"Maggie McNamara's Blue Moon!" This is a comedy film about a woman who meets a playboy at the Empire State Building. The playboy invited her to a party, and the neighbors who lived upstairs from the playboy were also interested in the girl. The two then fought over it, but the woman was not interested in them and pretended to be crazy and stupid.

"Best Actress is ......" Frederick dragged out his voice, looked at the expressions of the people below, and after a few seconds of silence, he exclaimed, "Audrey Hepburn, Roman Holiday!" ”

"Wow!" Everyone was amazed, but Hepburn deserved this award.

A thunderstorm of applause rang out, and everyone's eyes were focused on one person, and that was Audrey Hepburn!

Hepburn never thought that she would win the Academy Award, and she was stunned. In the end, she was reminded by others that she remembered to go on stage to accept the award.

Due to her overexcitement, she went on stage in the wrong direction and her speech was a little incoherent, but she didn't forget to say, "This is a gift from Alex and Pike." ”

There is also a small episode about this trophy: before the press conference, Hepburn lost the trophy in a fit of excitement, and was lucky enough to find it in the bathroom. Ten years later, Hepburn was filming outside, and thieves sneaked into her home and stole the trophy again.

Many people feel sorry for Pike missing out on Best Actor, because when the film company was promoting, it was based on Hepburn. As for Pike himself, he was quick to see it, saying, "It's not that I'm being generous, it's that anyone who has seen Hepburn's performance would be stupid to treat her like a little person." ”

In the end, "Roman Holiday" won three 26th Academy Awards, namely Best Screenplay, Best Actress, and Best Costume Design. When the Best Screenplay Award was awarded, Dalton was blacklisted and could not accept the award, so he had to give the screenwriter to another person named Ian.

It wasn't until 1997 that the Oscars re-awarded Best Screenplay to Dalton, 17 years after his death. Because Ian's son Tim refused to give away his father's trophy, the Oscar organizing committee awarded another gold statuette, and Trumbert's wife accepted the award on his behalf.

In order to reward the entire crew of "Roman Holiday", Alex took $1oo from the film's profits as a bonus. Among them, Hepburn alone took $3o, Pike took $2o, and the others shared the remaining $5o.

The film made DreamWorks famous, and at the same time, it also made a lot of money, and after deducting various bonuses and taxes, there was still $6oo dollars left. It can be said that with just one movie, Alex has already earned back the money he spent.
