Walking on the stage, Sean took a deep breath and took over the golden man representing the best actor from Marion.

"Congratulations." Marion whispered, her eyes complicated.

Sean knew what she was thinking, tried her best, went through hardships, and even tried the ridiculous rumor that whoever she slept with would get the Oscar, which was sealed, but the man in front of her easily became the youngest actor, and he was also the object of her rumors last year, how could she not make people jealous?

But he didn't care, it was normal to be jealous and feel that he was lucky at this time, and most people would have this reaction at this time, knowing that he won the Oscar for Best Actor coveted by countless people, and he also broke the record for winning this award in ten years.

As mentioned above, Sean is now the youngest actor, he is only 28 years old and less than 6 months, compared to the youngest actor before, Adrien Brody, who is 29 years old and almost 10 months old, is at least a year younger.

It's impossible not to be envied, so don't care, just know how much effort you've put into it – even though it's a bit comical to win now.

However, when Sean turned around and raised the trophy in front of the audience, the applause rang out again. Then, I don't know who took the lead, someone stood up, followed by more people also stood up, and finally the people sitting in the first few rows stood up, and the applause basically resounded in the hall.

Sean was a little stunned, and then a little relieved, are the eyes of the crowd really bright? Of course, there must be people who don't deal with him, but how can they be allowed to do so at this time?

"Thank you, thank you." After the applause subsided, he said this into the microphone, then reached out from the left pocket of his shirt to the right, then from the right pocket to the left, and finally raised his hands: "Well, I admit, I didn't prepare the acceptance speech." ”

Suddenly, laughter rang out, this is normal, there are very few people here who will expect that the winner will be him in the end.

"Okay, then, first of all, thank you to the film school, thank you to them for recognizing my efforts, thank you very much." Sean then began to play freely, and most of the acceptance speeches were the same anyway, thanking the people who came to thank him for the past, and the people who were going to be thanked were mentioned once they were done.

Sean also thought about whether to say something a little bit here, but when thanking his family, he still only brought the names of his parents and sister in turn.

Of course, Frederick and Sanders thanked them heavily, and in addition to that, there were two or three other people who were also thanked individually. Okay, and finally thanks to Director David Fincher, hey, David," Sean said and waved his hand over there, "Remember what we argued about, you see, can you prove that my insistence is right now?" ”

The camera pans over, and Finch rolls his eyes unabashedly, which then causes a burst of laughter.

"Well, you're right to insist." Sean then added, "You're a great director no matter what." Then, thanks Brad, thank you for recommending me to David, I hope you don't care too much. ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand to Brad Pitt, who was sitting in the front row, and the camera turned, and Pete cooperated with a helpless and regretful smile, which caused more laughter again.

Then, Sean made a gesture to leave, but made a look of what he was thinking, and immediately turned back to the microphone: "Oh, yes, and finally thanks to one person, Ms. Cate Blanchett, you are a very good actor, it is very happy to play with you, and of course, more importantly, playing with you can save me a lot of trouble." ”

The laughter sounded again, and it was louder than before, everyone knew the meaning of Sean's words, after so many years, only Cate Blanchett cooperated with him and would not spread scandals, perhaps because he testified against him in the first place, or maybe because Sean never had scandals with married women, anyway, most people agree with this.

It is precisely because of this that Sean will say such a thing at this time, he has long wanted to confess to Kate in public, no matter what way it is, even if it is the current joking self-deprecation.

It's risky, but at least it can make her understand that she's serious.

After coming down from the stage, Sean quickly returned to normal, holding the heavy little golden figure in his hand, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and sighed, this accident was so big that he had no idea what to do after that.

―――

"Anyway, congratulations, Sean, you're the youngest actor now." At the lively party, David Fincher hugged Sean softly after a few words with him, although he was a little disappointed.

"Frankly, I'm starting to really regret it." Brad Pitt, who was with his live-in girlfriend, gave him a soft punch, and although he spoke like this, he was basically free.

"Thank you, I really didn't expect tonight to end like this, the film school gave me a huge surprise." Sean said with a smile.

Basically, as long as you are familiar with him and pay attention to him, it is clear that the reason why the best actor tonight will be given to him is mainly to compensate for last year's regrets.

It's not that Sean's performance in "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" is not good, as an actor who has been nominated for 6 Oscars today, two of which were nominated for Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor at the same time, it is definitely not by luck to get to this point, if you want to talk about acting, Sean is fully worthy of the title of the best actor of the post-80s.

Therefore, in this movie, he accurately captured the characteristics of the character, which is obvious to all. But the movie is somewhat flawed, and makeup is really important to this movie, which somewhat lowers his evaluation, and it is absolutely no problem to say that it is absolutely no problem to get a nomination, but to win an award, there is no absolute advantage over several other competitors.

You must know that there are many old actors among them, and Frank Langra of "Dialogue with Nixon" is still quite senior on Broadway, so Sean can win the Best Actor mainly because the film school wants to compensate him.

After all, before this, in less than ten years, he was nominated 6 times for supporting roles, and he could play all kinds of roles, and Sean was the only actor who could play the taste of forty or fifty years old at such an age.

The most striking contrast is Heath Ledger in "Brokeback Mountain", the characters he played have gone through decades before and after, and they are still very good in the front, but not in the back, especially Kate Mara, who plays the daughter, is only a few years younger than him, and there is no sense of father and daughter when standing together. And in "Milk", when Sean and Franco stand together, there is no such inappropriate situation at all.

This, combined with the fact that last year's defeat at "Milk" led many groups – especially gay groups – to come out and accuse the film school of being conservative and unfair, and the spokesman had to come forward to explain, albeit in just a few words, that it was enough to prove that they were under a lot of pressure.

Once upon a time, film schools encountered such a situation? Sean was also the first person to make them so embarrassed. In addition, with his own strength, he is already more than many superstars in Hollywood, and he can be equal to the bosses of big studios and even media groups, so he simply compensated him for a Best Actor this year.

Otherwise, with the film school's attitude towards "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" - this Oscar, the film has no awards other than Best Makeup and Best Actor.

That's why Finch will seem a little frustrated now, even if he doesn't care about what he says, he still yearns for it in his heart, this is Oscar after all. This is also the reason why Pete behaves so freely, even if he may be wondering what it would be like if he had taken the role in the first place, instead of recommending it to Sean.

After all, Sean's achievements are obvious to all, and if they were them, they would not be able to make the film school so willing to compensate.

After chatting a little more, and greeting other familiar people, such as Clooney, Franco, and others, Sean sighed slightly, and then walked to his own side.

This party is still Oscar night for "Vanity Fair", and even though it was announced that it would not be held in support of the strike last year, it was still a little tricky to get around it, let alone this year.

The only difference is that Sean arrived relatively late, because after the awards ceremony, the Oscar winners had to take pictures in front of the media wall, which is traditional.

"Well, youngest Oscar-winning actor, you don't seem to be in a good mood." Before Laugh could speak to Sanders, a voice came laughing.

"Why, do I seem to be in a bad mood, Harvey?" Sean, who knew who was coming, turned around and gave the other person a roll of the eye.

"Well, even if you don't say it, we can still tell, don't we, Fred?" Weinstein appeared in front of him, smiling sneeringly, and craned his neck to ask Frederick.

"That's not a bad thing, Sean, at least you've made it and you've gotten what you want." The agent coughed dryly, as early as the beginning of last year, he had already become a partner in Endeavor, so Sean and how to win the best actor were no longer very important things for him.

"You're exactly what I wanted to say," Weinstein smiled and patted Sean, "Anyway, you've got it, do you know how many people are out of reach of this trophy?" ”

"What, do you think I'm going to say, that's not how I want to win a prize? Do I want to win it in a dignified way? Especially when everything is ready? Sean asked rhetorically with a smirk.

"Hmm......" Weinstein stretched out his hands a little confused, looking at Frederick, he was also puzzled, but Sanders and they thought of something and held his chin.

"Yes, I'll admit, I thought about it at first," Sean said, "and it's a depressing thing, but it's enough to adjust my mind since the awards." He said with a slight smile: "I thought of a line, a line from the movie I want to participate in next, since I want to dream, why not make it bigger?" ”
