Chapter 384: It Turned Out to Be You
Sam Phil's acceptance speech, ostensibly a child's whisper, is actually a politically correct statement.
After all, in the United States now, although women and black groups are not easy to mess with, the affirmative action movement is not as in full swing as it will be 20 years later, and if it is not too excessive, it will not suffer greatly.
But children, not only in the United States, but in almost all civilized societies, are a high-voltage line.
Death to death!
In fact, in Hollywood movies, it is often used as the source of heroic behavior that is family.
And the core of the family is the child.
- Of course, it could also be a dog.
However, after all, there are not so many families with pets. But in orthodox commercial films, there are few who encourage everyone to be single to death - that is simply self-isolation from the people!
In particular, a family ticket generally means at least three tickets, which can be much more profitable than one ticket for a single dog.
- For the sake of these three times the profits, how can the capitalists be stingy in promoting positive social energy?
Therefore, being loyal to the family and loving children is now the most politically correct thing in Hollywood.
- Although among the Hollywood stars, there are very few who can actually do this.
But that doesn't stop them from using it as a selling point to promote and make money!
A very important issue in caring for children is to maintain communication with their children's hearts.
After all, a child's mind is indeed very fragile.
And in a way, "The Sixth Sense" is a movie about how to communicate with children.
This is also the reason why it can move a large number of Americans, reaching a peak that is difficult to achieve in horror movies in the past.
And, as Sam Phil said, after the film hit theaters, "I see dead people!" did indeed become a hit sentence.
It is not unreasonable to say that it has become a code word for communication between children and adults.
- Although many bear children will say this, just because they think it's cool.
However, after all, it has helped some families to solve or alleviate the problem of communication with their children.
Making a movie can help others, and it is naturally very good.
Therefore, "The Sixth Sense" can still have a very good reputation while maintaining a high box office.
- Among them, the favorability of the family audience is the biggest factor.
And today, Sam Phil's acceptance speech is a feedback and summary for the family audience.
With this layer of golden body protection, even if Sam's Best Supporting Actor creates another miracle of the youngest age of the Oscars, no one dares to say anything.
The general trend of society is the trend of the times, and those who go along will prosper and those who go against it will die!
Although the media are accustomed to manipulating public opinion, they are still very clear about what to say and what not to say.
In particular, Sam Phil himself has the protection of the aura of a minor.
Of course, these acceptance speeches are written in advance.
After all, this kind of line, unlike those funny performances played on the spot, needs to be carefully considered.
Sam Phil is really just reading from the book.
This is also the reason why he hurriedly asked Charlotte for help after forgetting the words.
Fortunately, with Alexis stealthy cheating reminder, the little boy finally recited his acceptance speech slowly.
The people present naturally didn't fail to see that this was reading the lines, but in the face of this kind of politically correct lines, it was not permissible to pick on or anything.
At this time, just applaud!
But what makes Charlotte find interesting is not these-
At the scene of the award ceremony, he found a trace of unfamiliar mana fluctuations.
Although the other party tried their best to hide it - of course, it may also be that the mana level itself is very low - but it was finally discovered by Charlotte.
He was not surprised by this.
In fact, before letting Alexis accompany Sam Phil to the stage, Charlotte also hides another layer of purpose.
He wanted to use Alexis as bait to see if there were any other people who knew about spells and could see ghosts throughout the Oscars.
And the reason why he did this is also for a reason -
After draining Harvey Weinstein's evil energy from his body before, the spell trap he set was triggered!
The time of the trigger is this morning.
Through the trap's reaction, Charlotte realizes that her previous guess about who is behind the scenes may be correct.
Although judging by that trap, the other party is not like Charlotte, and his mastery of spells is limited, but there is no doubt that he can spell.
So, in this way, what is the identity of the other party is worth playing.
After all, whether it is Harvey Weinstein, who was lodged by evil spirits in the end, or Gwyneth Paltrow and Brad Pitt before, they are all people in Hollywood circles, does this mean that the masterminds behind the control of them are also in this bizarre circle?
That's why Charlotte deliberately let Alexis appear next to Sam Phil today.
After all, at the Oscars, most of Hollywood's famous and surnamed figures gathered. There is a very high probability that the mastermind behind them is hiding among them.
As for the safety of Alexis and Sam Phil, there is no need to worry - if the other party's strength in spells is really strong, I am afraid that they will not be satisfied with such a low-end thing as creating original sin evil qi for a long time.
- You know, when you have the ability, it's human instinct to make a big news!
Now, as Charlotte expected, Alexis' presence was indeed seen by some of the people present.
But the identity of the person who saw it was a little unexpected for Charlotte-
"It's him......"
Not to mention Charlotte's surprise, after Sam Phil stepped down, under the auspices of Billy Christo, this year's Oscars continued-
For the award of Best Supporting Actress, as Charlotte expected, Toni Colette of the crew of "The Sixth Sense" only played soy sauce once.
In the end, it was the French woman from the crew of "The English Patient", Juliette Binoche.
Because it was expected before, Toni Colette was not too frustrated.
She accepted the defeat with all ease.
And the next few awards have nothing to do with the crew of "The Sixth Sense".
Charlotte was just beating soy sauce while pondering her own thoughts.
It wasn't until Tom Cruise's current wife, Nicole Kidman, took the stage to present the Best Editing winner, that Charlotte's attention turned back again -
"Best Editing Winner, Andrew Mondshane, The Sixth Sense!"
With the announcement of this tall woman from Australia, the applause around Charlotte was warm again.
During the editing, Andrew Mondshane, who had quarreled with Charlotte countless times, was so excited that he stood up with his hands raised in the air.
- In the technical category of the Oscars, Best Editing is a very heavy one.
It may not be comparable to the acting awards, but there is an unwritten saying in the Oscars that only three awards for Best Editing, Best Cinematography and Best Picture can be considered a genuine and undisputed Oscar for Best Picture of the Year.
From this point of view, the gold content between the best films is actually different.
And now the crew of "The Sixth Sense" can win the award for best editing, which is of great significance.
"Maybe there's a drama for this year's best film?"
Charlotte thought to herself.
