Chapter 529: Two Nominations
There is nothing to talk about in the preparatory meeting, the main thing is to call several main leaders and main actors over to introduce each other, and then announce the start time: February 11.
I have to say that Xant is indeed a talent, well prepared, and after finalizing Sean and quickly negotiating several other main actors, he quickly set up the crew and finalized the start time. In a sense, he also has a great enthusiasm for this movie, so Sean is even more at ease.
It's just that he is relieved does not mean that Xant will also be relieved, so the other party pulled him after the meeting and specially admonished him: "I know that there may be a lot of parties during this time, and I want you to promise that you can put most of your energy into the movie." ”
Although he wanted to ask a few words about the actor, Sean nodded: "Okay, I promise." ”
Now that you're ready, it's not a problem who you kiss with, and Franco's flattering appearance will definitely not mess with him, so ...... As long as there is no passion play, it will be covered by water and soil when the time comes.
As for the so-called, there are more parties during this time, which refers to the parties brought about by this awards season at the beginning of each year, and most of the awards are presented at the beginning of the year, so all kinds of canvassing and celebratory parties emerge in endlessly. Especially after the announcement of the Oscar nominations, there are more of these parties, although according to the rules of the Academy, the various commissioners cannot contact the candidates privately after the announcement, but ...... Publicly, by chance at some parties, but no problem.
Although the list of nominees has not yet been announced, awards from various associations have already begun to be awarded, and Sean, who had two works last year, "Babel" and "Sweeney Todd", is obviously very favored. Not to mention anything else, at the previous Golden Globe Awards ceremony, he almost won the Best Actor in the Comedy Music category.
This year's Golden Globe Awards were presented on January 16, and despite the scandals that always followed, there were many celebrities at each ceremony.
"Sweeney Todd" was originally one of the big hits, Tim? Burton is a very interesting guy, although he rarely changes his style, although he has failed sometimes, but most of the films he has made are still good at the box office.
Take this movie as an example, the musical movie despite the fact that with Nicole? Kidman's Moulin Rouge was revived, Catherine? Zeta-Jones also won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for "Chicago", but after all, it is still a niche film, even if it seems to be popular, such as "Dance Out of My Life" and other youth song and dance movie variants.
But Burton was able to add many other condiments, and the song and dance movie was forced to his style, and it was integrated just right, although there were only more than 1,000 theaters when it was released, the box office in the first week was about the same as the number of theaters, and whether it was Sean or his wife Helena, or Rickman, they all received good reviews.
This is Burton's film, he can get fame himself, the producers and investors can make a little money, and the actors get word of mouth and popularity, basically a few parties profit, so he will be very popular until this situation is a big problem.
Not to mention this, Sean, as the star of "Sweeney Todd", has been nominated for an Oscar twice, and has won the Grammy trophy, and still releases a single or two from time to time - even if the songs sung in the song and dance movies are completely different from pop music - then generally the Golden Globes will seriously consider whether to give him one, and the leading actor in the musical comedy category is not very valuable.
Unfortunately, however, this time he met a strong opponent, Sasha? Byron? Cohen, that is, the male protagonist of "Borat".
"Borat" tells the funny story of a Kazakh host in the United States, and it belongs to the kind of, pee, and fart comedy with no lower limit, and I don't know why, Americans just like it.
So Sasha? Byron? Cohen's exaggerated performance in it has been praised by many, some say he is crazy and intense, some say he is quirky and cute, and others say that he shows a new way of acting in comedy.
So, without Sean putting a lot of effort into PR, Sasha? Byron? Cohen, the British actor, won the Golden Globe for Best Actor in a Musical Comedy.
"It's okay, I'll be able to get it this time next year without PR." Sean said this to his friends after the awards ceremony.
The list of Golden Globe nominees has always come out in December of the previous year, during which time he was still busy putting the finishing touches on "Death of a Sharpshooter" and "Ocean's Thirteen", and trying to convince Anderson where he had time to care.
After that, although he completed two films, he was immediately busy because of "Milk", and the in-depth PR definitely required him to be present in person to show respect, so he finally let this low-hanging fruit slip away.
It doesn't matter, if the actor in the drama category may really have some regrets, the musical comedy category is not worth much, and it ...... The Oscars are the point. That's what Sean thought.
There is indeed a comforting nature in it, but this is also true, basically, when any media mentions the actor in the Golden Globe Award movie category, it is the default actor in the drama category, not the actor in the musical comedy category, so this chicken rib really doesn't want it.
The Oscars are the focus, and after this year's nominees were announced, Sean's ambitions also began to dawn.
The door slammed open, and two huddled figures rushed in, kissing passionately while picking at each other's clothes.
Several sharp tearing sounds sounded, apparently, the man's movements were a little rough, and the woman's clothes were torn, but the woman did not care, and responded with more passionate kisses.
The two collapsed on the bed, and as the last few pieces of close-fitting clothing were thrown down, they quickly got to the point, and the ecstasy gasps began to play.
The battle lasted for a long time before it stopped, and then it remained warm in the darkness for a long time before one hand clicked open the bedside lamp.
"It's too bad to wear this outfit at all." A lazy female voice with charm sounded at this time.
"It's okay, I'll have someone buy you the same one tomorrow," the man chuckled, accompanied by a few kisses.
"Sean!" The woman screamed in disgust.
"We haven't seen each other in a while, Kate, and I miss you so much, so ......" Sean continued, the kiss not stopping.
Kate was silent for a few minutes, and only after a few minutes did she suddenly say again: "And the pantyhose." ”
"Okay, and the stockings, I'll have someone bring a whole set of clothes." Sean froze for a few seconds, then laughed.
Then, he jumped off the bed and took the ragged Kate? Blanchett picked up from the bed: "How about a shower together?" ”
The gray-blue eyes glanced at Sean with a complicated look, although the feelings and obstacles between the two people were clear and clear, but as a woman who was born to be more sentimental, Kate still couldn't help but sigh.
Of course, what to do after sighing is still what to do, so the two arms are naturally wrapped around his neck: "Okay." ”
The warm water filled the bathroom, and two people hugging each other in the water were talking about what they had seen at the party tonight.
"Speaking of which, you have two nominations, Sean, which one do you have more confidence in?" Kate, leaning against Sean's chest, asked with a chuckle.
"I don't have confidence," Sean said, kissing her on the forehead, "I've done well in 'Babel', but I don't have many things to stand out from, and it's good to have a nomination." As for "Sweeney Todd", I haven't won the leading actor in a musical movie for the last ten or even twenty years, so how can I be an exception? ”
"But I see you're very active at parties, aren't you?" Kate turned her head to the side and asked curiously.
"That's right, but not necessarily for this year, my dear, some investments take time to pay off." Sean shrugged, "Remember what I told you?" I've just gotten a good role, and by this time next year, I'm sure I'll be able to surprise a lot. ”
"The gay character?" Kate's eyes suddenly curved, "Oh, why do I want to laugh so badly at the thought that you're going to kiss a guy in the movie?" ”
"I kiss a man and make you happy like that?" A dangerous look flashed in Sean's eyes, and before Kate could react, he picked him up in her arms with a whoop and exclaimed.
Although Kate quickly broke free from his arms by taking advantage of being in the water, her body was slippery, but the bath was still a little smaller, and she was soon caught by Sean again, and then with laughter, exclamations and the sound of rushing water, the two of them frolicked in the bath.
As soon as the meeting of "Milk" ended, only a month later, the list of Oscar nominees was released, the most striking of which was Sean, who had two nominations at the same time.
On that long list, he got a nomination for Best Supporting Actor for "Babel" and then a nomination for Best Actor for "Sweeney Todd", which is definitely very eye-catching.
It is not uncommon to nominate both the leading role and the supporting role in the history of the Oscars, and the most typical is the 66th Oscars, Holly? Hunter and Emma? Thompson, who was both nominated for Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress at the same time, was stunned at the time.
And there are even fewer actors who want to do this, although there are also those who have been nominated for Best Director and Best Actor at the same time, but the actor and supporting actor have basically not been in the past ten years.
One can imagine how many eyes will be cast on Sean after the list comes out. Since the nomination at the beginning of 00, there have been four nominations in just six or seven years, one of which is still a double nomination, compared to those who have worked hard for a long time to get one or two nominations, what kind of envy and hatred should this be?
However, this further confirms that Sean is the best actor in Hollywood among the post-80s actors.
The list of nominees is out, and all kinds of public relations entertainment are naturally indispensable, just like the above, even if you can't get it, in order to build a good relationship, you have to participate.
So, at a party related to "Babel", Sean finally found an opportunity to catch Kate.
