At half past five in the morning on the 13th, at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles, the Golden Globe Award nominations were announced.
In front of the live broadcast camera, behind the glass podium, the bright lights were focused, Dakota Johnson opened the envelope containing the results, and under the warm smile, his heart beat nervously, how is his demeanor now, how is the appearance effect, and what is the nomination result......
She also has a favorite movie and filmmaker.
The envelope opened, and she took out a stack of list letterheads, and she kept her voice reading smoothly, from a little stiff to more and more natural, after the best original song, she flipped through the next piece of paper and said with a smile: "The finalists for the best film score are:
Brokeback Mountain, Gustavo Santolara
The Chronicles of Narnia, by Harry Gregerson Williams
King Kong, by James Newton Howard
"Little Miss Sunshine", Hans Zimmer
Memoirs of a Geisha, by John Williams
......
A nomination is out!
Hermann Wright has a layer of cold sweat on his forehead, but it is not surprising that Hans Zimmer has been very admired for the Golden Globes in recent years, and this is already his 7th time shortlisted (2/7), of which 6 are the 58th and now the 63rd, only the 60th is not, and he was shortlisted for Best Original Song that year.
This time Zimmer received widespread praise on the LMS soundtrack sheet xiàn, so this nomination is of course, the challenge is not here.
But a lot of people started cheering!
In Toronto, a classroom at the Wexford School of the Arts where an NPC channel was broadcasting, and most of the students were happy for Ye Wei, an alumnus.
Nina raised her fist excitedly, as if she had won a gold medal in a major competition, oh Canada, our homeland and homeland! Your sons and daughters, loyal and patriotic. A true northern state with great ambition, prosperity, strength and freedom!
She laughed at the phone that was on the phone, "Yunik, congratulations! Did you hear everyone's blessings?"
"Thank you, but I'm not Hans Zimmer......"
In Los Angeles, the Ye family's living room was already boiling, and Ye Wei, who was holding a mobile phone, looked at his parents happy like children there, and shook his head helplessly, "Hey! You have robbed me of my job." The announcement continued on the TV, and the old couple suddenly shouted in excitement again!
The sound woke Duoduo up, and she walked down from the second floor with a bear doll in her arms, and asked in a daze, "What happened?"
At this moment, jubilation is the biggest portrayal of LMS supporters!
Three nominations, Alan Arkin was nominated for Best Supporting Actor and Abigill Bryslin was nominated for Best Supporting Actress!
In Coppola's family theater, Gia gently shook the goblet with red wine in her hand and looked at the huge screen, such an early morning is really a great enjoyment of life. Today, I found out that Dakota Johnson's chick is so cute, so that Master Gia wants to kiss her across the screen, LMS mascot!
But LMS's performance beyond the universe has long been praised by critics, and it has won several film critics association awards in the past few days. For example, the New York Film Critics Circle Awards announced yesterday, LMS won the best supporting actor and actress, and the best picture is "Brokeback Mountain", which conquered the east and west coasts, and it is already the biggest favorite for the Oscars.
And in another important award, the old, authoritative National Critics Association Award with a large number of Oscar jury members, "Good Luck, Good Night" won the first place in the top ten of the year.
LMS was nominated for fifth place, along with Best Overall Performance and Best Supporting Actor.
Basically, these ten films will be the players of this year's awards season, and the Oscar for Best Picture will also come out of them.
In the past ten or twenty years, the NBR's top ten movies have only been rejected once, and "The Lord of the Rings 3", which swept 11 Oscars last year, was not shortlisted, and only won the best overall performance. Interestingly, The Lord of the Rings 3 did not receive a single Oscar nomination for acting.
This is the difference between the NBR and the Oscars, the former is more focused on literature and art, and the latter is determined by the opinions of peers.
This year's LAFCA, BSFC, NYFCC, NBR best directors are Ang Lee, the five major film critics association awards in the United States have won four, the momentum can be said to be no rival can be compared, and there is a debt of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", in fact, Ang Lee has won the directors' guild, the Golden Globe and the Oscars.
But whether Ye Wei can get the nomination is still a huge unknown.
The absence of three nominations made Wright dance, although the supporting actor award was originally a PR goal, if the judges were to use these "prevarications", and the award was ...... Fortunately, the Golden Globe is divided into drama and musical comedy, and the chances are still great.
"The ...... finalist for Best Screenplay" is on the screen, and Dakota Johnson continues to read.
The hearts of the people in focus lifted, the eyes of the people of Lionsgate widened, the people of DreamWorks held their breath, and the Golden Globe had ten nominations for the film and only five for the script, which was in fact the bigger Oscar prediction.
Once upon a time, Focus Movies was in a hurry to sell a script that had undergone countless revisions over the years, and after selling 500,000, it felt like it had made a lot of money......
Two seasoned producers didn't match up for a buyback......
A teenager made some more minor modifications......
Michael Arndt, "Little Miss Sunshine"
George Clooney, Grant Heslov, Good Night, Good Luck
Paul Haggis, Robert Moresco, "Crash"
Diana Oshana, Larry McMurtry, Brokeback Mountain
Eric Ross, Tony Kushner, "Munich Massacre"
With Dakota's words, some people in front of the TV are happy and some are disappointed, and "Capote" and "Pride and Prejudice" have become losers in the fierce competition. And Arndt touched his head and laughed self-deprecatingly, he really couldn't have imagined that today, five years later, he would attend the Golden Globe dinner.
Four nominations!LMS continues to lead the way.
This made the supporters very happy, and it was a bit of a surprise!
Terry Price is also happy, DreamWorks is becoming the biggest winner today! Gonzman and Wright are not happy too soon, the most important thing is the film and the director......
Immediately after, the nominations for Best Actor and Actress in a Musical Comedy and Drama were also announced, and another cheer from the people at LMS Castle broke out, and the number of nominations rose to five! Tom Hanks was nominated for Best Actor in a Musical Comedy.
This is Hanks' 7th Golden Globe honor, and he is competing for the Golden Globe Musical Comedy Actor again after 12 years.
Last year, Hanks' career fell to a low ebb after starring in three films starring Spielberg, Zemeckis and the Coen brothers, none of which won the award. This year, in cooperation with a prodigy, it exploded!
At this moment, he must have a signature smile on his face, and those who do stupid things are fools, Forrest Gump is not, and neither is he.
Hanks's inclusion in the list did not bring a surprise to the media reporters, but Julia Roberts was not shortlisted, she has always been the darling of the Golden Globes, and her performance is so good. Maybe it's because she's not involved in the PR campaign, or is it a balance in the number of nominations?
"Hahaha!" Auntie was not nominated, but Emma, who was watching, was smiling happily, but the chance of nomination was greater! Auntie and Wei, who to choose? Of course Wei! Anyway, my aunt won the Golden Globe Awards, and three movie actress performance awards were all over.
She comforted her aunt on the other end of the phone, "We all know you're the best, next time, next time." ”
"Next time it's your turn, Emma. Roberts wasn't upset and was laughing, "There's already an award for my Lifetime Achievement, 'Roberts' is almost you, Emma." ”
At the Hilton Hotel, after announcing the list of the best foreign language films, there are only three awards left to be announced, and they are also the most eye-catching director awards and film awards in the outside world.
When it comes to best director, Dakota Johnson knows that TV viewers are nervous and journalists are watching, because there is a very, very young candidate this year, who has been talking about it really much in the last month, and who is only a year older than her and almost omnipotent:
VIY!
"Here is the list of nominees for Best Director. She flipped through a page of letter in her hand, and without taking her eyes off it, she saw that it was written......
There was a tense and depressing atmosphere in front of the TV, and Attorney Salton crossed his chest, a lot of LMS crew members, a lot of people who had been lucky enough to rise with VIY, Peter Heller, Maurer, ...... Regardless of whether they have been despised before, they love this little director, they know best his talent and hard work, and he deserves to be nominated!
The whole team behind the scenes, Wright, was on the verge of cardiac arrest. The failure of the Tokyo International Film Festival disrupted the layout, and 97% of Rotten Tomatoes was disrupted again, from almost giving up to heavy publicity, with nominations and without nominations, affecting not only the careers of one or two people, but many, many more......
One by one, the heartstrings were tightened! A goblet was about to burst by the girl's hand.
Toronto, Nina's eyes were wide open, oh Canada, oh Canada...... The surrounding teachers and students all looked at the TV on the side of the blackboard.
Los Angeles, Lily clenched her fingers, suddenly frowned, and noticed that Dakota seemed to be a little surprised for a moment, she didn't know if the other party supported her, a long time ago, she contacted her, of course, she said that she liked "The Wedding is Coming", but there must be something unexpected.
Dakota on the screen was still smiling, and read:
George Clooney, Good Night, Good Luck
Peter Jackson, King Kong
Ang Lee, "Brokeback Mountain"
The large LED screen shows three portraits from top left to right, and two more.
Ang Lee and Clooney are scheduled, the two have fought for the Venice Golden Lion Awards in September this year to now, and the strength of Ang Lee has won more and lost less, but Clooney's popularity and charm make him not be ignored as soon as he has a good appearance, and Jackson is a little surprised, just because he has not gained much from the major film critics awards that have been announced.
This is the cleverness of the Golden Globe Awards, all literary films will become NBR, "King Kong" is not badly filmed, and nominating Jackson can bring topics, attention and ratings.
"Fernando Merrils, The Immortal Gardener"
It's even more surprising! Or maybe it should have been shortlisted for "City of God" a few years ago.
There is only one spot left!
Because the reading order is arranged by the initials of the last name, people like David Cronenberg of C, Paul Haggis of H, and Bennett Miller of M are all out.
But there are Spielberg of S, Woody Allen and Joe Wright of W, and Ye Wei of Y......
It was as if the time bomb was about to explode with less than three seconds left, but the bomb disposal personnel realized that they were colorblind.
In front of the TV, the audience was full of thoughts, and on the TV, Dakota Johnson continued to smile and read:
"Steven Spielberg, 'Munich Massacre'"
The head of a middle-aged and elderly man wearing glasses with slightly front baldness appeared in the middle of the lower row of the LED screen, and was shortlisted for the 10th time (2/10).
Not !! this moment, all the people who wholeheartedly supported Ye Wei were extremely heartbroken. Wright, Gozman, Brian and others were disappointed as if they had fallen from the clouds, 17 years old, and they knew they couldn't do it...... VIY's cousin is really good, good in everything, but it still can't win him a nomination......
Peter Jackson and Fran Welsh laughed in unison, not gloating, but, sorry, we have, you don't.
All those who don't want things to happen breathe a sigh of relief, and those who want Ye Wei's death are even happier! The reporters are ready to issue articles like this: "Ye Wei was not shortlisted," "The young miracle did not happen," "Ye Wei stopped being nominated," and "The Golden Globe Award did not have a VIY......
There are different reasons for the disappointment, and Rameau's disappointment is mixed with her family grievances, and it seems that the ultimate Oscar blow is not in sight. Gia's disappointment is mixed with her love for movies, which is really unfair. Emma's disappointment is mixed with adoration and self-satisfaction, the aunt she facilitated joined, she contributed to the current LMS, but she lived up to expectations and shot super well, why can't she be nominated?
"No ......!" Despite some surprise, Lily's face turned red, and her frowning brows showed sadness and indignation at the moment, and she wanted to call Wei and say that it was no big deal......
Toronto, Nina, who was about to cheer and jump, immediately blackened her face, her eyes were full of murderous energy, damn the Golden Globe Award, who is rare!! Yunic doesn't need this broken award!
“AND......”
At this time, Dakota Johnson continued to speak, glancing at the letter.
There was a shocking noise in front of the TV, and everyone was stunned, and there were six people selected this year? Wright and others instantly rekindled hope in their hearts! This situation is not common in the Golden Globe Awards, but it is not uncommon, and in some years there will be six nominees for best director......
"Only, only, only ......" Anna Sophia said prayerfully, and Bella next to her wagged her tail, but where?
On the screen, Dakota looked at the camera, smiled even brighter, and read:
"Ye Wei, "Little Sunshine Beauty"
A handsome teenager close-up photo appeared on the lower right side of the LED screen, the whole screen was six people, five middle-aged and middle-aged and elderly people, and one teenager, 17 years old, was shortlisted for the first time.
In an instant, all the places in front of the TV that supported Ye Wei burst out with crazy screams, boiling!
Those who were happy a moment ago were stupid, falling into an unbelievable dead silence, what kind of joke......
Busy reporters have to send another kind of manuscript!
""Little Sunshine Beauty" leads the Golden Globe Award nominees, and Ye Wei is shortlisted for Best Director, breaking the record"
"Youngest Golden Globe Award Nominee for Best Director: VIY"
"Genius Boy Descends Golden Globe Awards!"
