Hollywood Secret Garden

Chapter 588 2

In a sense, all awards ceremonies are sharing pork, whether it is the Oscars, the Golden Browns, or the Golden Lions and Golden Bears.It's just that at these authoritative and well-known awards ceremonies, all the pork is of good quality.So just like the previous sentence, nomination is based on strength, while winning is almost based on luck.

So, Angela's luck is very good?After all, few people can be nominated and win awards after releasing a work after not playing a role for several years.Well, it’s true if you just think about it from this aspect, but the problem is that Angie has won more than one nomination, which is no less important than Best Supporting Actress, and the jury has given her other parts of pork more than once instead of giving her the best piece.

Forget it, it's not over yet.Angela shook her head slightly, and refocused her attention on the stage.

The awards were handed out one by one. The nominations for the best costumes, best sound effects, best art direction, best visual effects, etc. in several technical categories were basically divided by "Moulin Rouge" and the first part of "Lord of the Rings". .However, "Brokeback Mountain" is not without gains. It easily defeated "Lord of the Rings" in the best photography and took it into the hands.

"The Devil" was never mentioned after Best Supporting Actress because it only had two nominations.The strange thing is that Angela didn't increase her worries about Kate because she won the Best Supporting Actress. She couldn't tell why, maybe it was because she knew Kate's opponents better?

Needless to say, Nicole, as far as I can remember, she wasn't named the queen because of this movie, and of course she won't now.Even if there are variables, it will not be too big. How many of the previous Oscar winners for Best Actress were awarded because of their glamorous image in the movie?As for Renee Zellweger, to put it bluntly, she always plays a supporting actress better than a leading actress. Besides, "BJ's Diary" is the only nomination for a British film; as for the other two nominated actresses, Sissy Spacey Denk and Judi Denk, although they both have an age advantage, the former has already won the best actress and the latter has the same problem with Zellweger that the supporting role is better than the leading role.In this way, the possibility of Kate winning is still very high.

But for some reason, Angela always felt that the list of nominations was a bit weird, as if something was missing.But for a while, she couldn't figure out what was missing, so she shrugged and gave up thinking again.

Although the host Wubi still kept changing her clothes, she finally didn’t have as many times as the 71st session, and her image was not too shocking. In addition, she spared no effort to adjust the atmosphere of the scene, and the whole award ceremony was full of laughter.

Although John Williams was nominated for the best soundtrack for both "AI" and "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone", this award was finally won by Howard Shaw, who composed the soundtrack for "Lord of the Rings".Williams said he wouldn't mind, so he definitely wouldn't mind, but Angela was still not reconciled, after all, she was nominated this time based entirely on her own strength.

Of course, this dissatisfaction soon passed.As she said before, Howard Shaw is definitely qualified to win a statuette based on the means of perfectly integrating those two tasteless soundtracks into the whole.As for myself, it doesn't matter, there will be a long time to come, and there will be plenty of opportunities in the future.

In addition, Angela also regrets Randy Newman's defeat. After all, there are not many cartoons that can be nominated for Oscar's best soundtrack, and they are still produced by Pixar's animation department.But Randy Newman came back to win best song for the theme song from "Monsters, Inc."

After a song and dance, the screenplay awards will be presented. The best originality award goes to Julian Fellowes, the screenwriter of "Gosford Manor", and the best adaptation...

"The winner of the best adapted screenplay is Angela Mason, "Brokeback Mountain"!" As the award presenter Alec Baldwin read out his name, there was immediate applause at the scene, but there were also many boos .

Angela, who faced the camera, smiled and shrugged indifferently, walked onto the stage and hugged Alec, and then took over the statuette for the best adapted screenplay: "I'm sorry, I broke my promise, I still haven't been able to Remembering the names of those who had been forgotten before."

The theater suddenly burst into good-natured laughter.

"Thinking about it, this seems to be the first time I've come to the stage to receive the best screenplay award in person. It's really memorable." Angela said, smacking her lips, "Okay, this time I won't thank you one by one. Otherwise, maybe someone will accuse you of wasting everyone's time again."

After a pause amidst laughter, she said again: "But, no matter what, I still want to thank Ms. Anne Prow. Without her book, there would be no script and this movie. If we say The script of "Brokeback Mountain" is an exquisite villa, so Ms. Prue's original version is the most solid foundation of the villa, thank you for your novel."

Holding the statuette in her hand, Angela bowed with a smile, walked off the stage amidst applause, returned to her seat and greeted the men and women who congratulated her before sitting down.

"Do you need me to say congratulations?" Mei Weiss beside her clapped her hands in a leisurely manner.

"No." Angela, who kept smiling, replied very briefly.

"It's strange, why are you still not very interested?" Meivis continued to ask curiously, but the girl kept her mouth shut and said nothing, and she also shrugged her shoulders and remained silent.

Four nominations are currently lost and one has been won. If he wants to equal his 97-year record, he must get the last one.However, judging from the various signs that have emerged, what are the chances of getting it?If the interest is still high, then it must be hell.

Well, take it easy, the ceremony isn't over yet.Angela still comforted herself with these words.

As time went by, the climax of the entire awards ceremony came, and the four most important awards of best actor and actress, best director, and best film were about to be awarded.

"What an amazing night, let's congratulate him, the winner of Best Actor is: Denzel Washington, "Training Day"!" With the voice of the award presenter Juliette Binoche, the next The screen was immediately replaced by Denzel's face full of surprise.

"Thank you to the judges for awarding this award to me," Denzel, who received the best actor trophy, began his speech excitedly. The corners of the eyes of this tall black movie star who played many tough-guy episodes on the screen were wet stand up.

No wonder, he should be the second black actor after Sidney Poitier... Wait!Black actor? !Angela raised her brows, she finally understood why she felt that the Best Actress nomination was a bit strange, if her memory was correct, Halle Berry should be the first black actress at the same time as Denzel Washington.

Didn't get nominated?Of course it’s impossible, the Oscar judges would definitely not mind launching a black actor and actress at the same time to show their justice, and Angela specially collected relevant comments after Kate won the best actress, and those who were not nominated In the list of actors named Qu, she did not see Halle Berry's name.So... In this case, there is only one explanation, the little butterfly's wings are flapping again.

This is too much of a coincidence, right?Angela felt a little unbelievable, and just slapped away the strongest opponent. Are the wings of a butterfly so powerful?But then again, unpredictability is one of the keys to chaos theory, and this situation has happened more than once or twice, and Angela still remembers that the few movies that were supposed to be released in the past few years have no news, So if he was really slapped, there was no other way.

"Okay, now let's take a look at the nomination list." At this time, the above guest has been replaced by Russell Crowe. Last year, he was nominated for the best actor and won the award. Grow a beard.

"Nicole Kidman, Moulin Rouge; Renée Zellweger, BJ's Diary; Kate Beckinsale, The Devil; Sissy Spacek, The Undeserved Love"; Judi Denk, "The Long Road Is Ending."

Following his voice, the five nominated ladies appeared on the screen next to them one by one, although they all tried their best to appear calm and normal.But the corners of his eyes still showed anxiety and excitement.Angela also bit her knuckles involuntarily. On the one hand, she very much hoped that Kate would win the Best Actress; but on the other hand, if Kate won the Best Actress, it meant that the next award was basically hopeless.

"Frankly speaking, everyone has the ability to win the award. If I were the judge, I really don't know who to award it to." Russell opened the envelope and glanced at the content, but he didn't start to tease. As a result, there were boos in the theater .

However, Russell was unmoved, and continued to talk about the style characteristics of several candidates, until Whoopi in the distance threatened him: "If you don't announce it, Russell, I will come over and kick you down and read it for you." come out!"

"Okay, okay, so, the winner of Best Actress is, um... Fortunately, I worked with her before this movie," Russell exaggeratedly relieved, "Congratulations, Kate!"

As early as when he said the previous sentence, everyone had already understood who the winner was, and immediately applauded in Kate's direction after reading the name.The statuette who won the Best Supporting Actress and Best Actress consecutively at a young age can be regarded as a record.

Kate obviously didn't expect that she would really win the Best Actress. When the camera turned to her, she was still staring at the stage in a daze, not knowing what to do.It wasn't until the people around her pushed her that she reacted abruptly, then covered her mouth in disbelief, and immediately looked at Angela excitedly.

The girl who had been watching her smiled slightly, and made a gesture of invitation with her hands slightly spread out, and the heart that was slightly raised was completely let go.What could be happier than Kate getting Best Actress?It's no big deal even if the next thing is really as she expected, she still has this year.Even if it doesn't work this year, that's better, when the time comes, public opinion will only be more biased towards him.

Kate had already stepped onto the stage at this time, biting her lips tightly and took over the statuette representing the actress from Russell. Who would have thought that she would actually win the two most honorable awards as an actor in a row.

"I would like to thank a few people, thank the judges for recognizing my performance and presenting this award to me; thank the crew for their support, without them I would not have a wonderful performance; thank my father, he taught me how to Going to perform, he in heaven will be proud of me... Finally, I want to thank...Angie, you encouraged me to come here, and you helped me walk through it, thank you! Today, now , is my most glorious time!" At this point, she covered her mouth and choked up, her beautiful eyes were full of misty water vapor.

Enthusiastic applause filled the entire theater again, and even Nicole, who was originally lost, applauded after adjusting.Fortunately, Kate immediately controlled her emotions, and walked off the stage after holding the statuette and bowing slightly to the audience.

An indescribable feeling surged into Angela's heart at this moment, how could she not hear Kate's feelings hidden under those few thank you words.It's a pity that this is the scene of the Oscar Awards Ceremony. Kate didn't even dare to look at her for a long time when she was giving a speech. These two words of thanks are already the greatest expression of her heart.

After sighing lightly, the girl stood up with a smile and stretched out her arms to Kate who was coming from inside.Kate's eyes flashed with obvious surprise and surprise, and she hugged Angela without the slightest hesitation.Although they didn't say anything to each other, they hugged each other's arms hard enough to explain everything.

Angela knew that the camera lens was facing her, and Angela also knew that Jesse and Nat were watching the live broadcast in front of the TV, but she couldn't care less about it.Angela only knew that no matter what would happen in the future, if she didn't respond to Kate's feelings here, she would definitely regret it for the rest of her life.

Patting on the shoulder again, the two separated with a smile, still not speaking, as if it was just a common congratulation between sisters.But after falling into the eyes of everyone, the applause that had faded away sounded again.

Finally came the last moment, as Angela expected, the name of the best director read from the award presenter Spielberg was: Robert Altman!

Even though she was already mentally prepared, the girl couldn't help but twitched the corners of her mouth.The old guys in the film academy are still the same, tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall, I don't know what the media will say tomorrow.

Fortunately, she didn't show any disappointment. Whether it was the expressions of the other losers on the big screen, or when people around her comforted her, Angela always kept a smiling expression that seemed unchanged for thousands of years.

Although many people thought it was a pity, even the host Whoopi lamented that Ms. Angel's luck was really bad after Robert finished his speech, but no one thought that Robert was not qualified to win the best director.You know, Robert Altman is one of the only two directors who have won the three major film festival awards of Golden Palm, Golden Lion and Golden Bear.

Including this time, Robert has been nominated for Oscar for Best Director five times. It is a pity that he is good at ensemble drama and suspense themes that are not liked by the academics, so he has been defeated every time before this, and today finally I made a wish.

It doesn't matter, you have to be humble and respect the old and love the young. Anyway, it's not the first time. You must know that four consecutive nominations and four consecutive defeats are also a record that no one can break.Angela comforted herself in such a teasing way, as she said before, if it doesn't work now, it will be better this year, if it doesn't work this year, it will be better, and it will only make her own more cards.To be honest, she even vaguely hoped that this year would only be a nomination, so...

To say that there are still regrets, now there is only one award left, which is the best movie. Will Brokeback Mountain win Best Picture?Yes, there is that qualification, but it is practically impossible.In a sense, "Brokeback Mountain" winning the best movie can be equated with mainstream society's recognition of homosexuality, but how can mainstream society let this happen unless it is forced to do so?

However, an accident happened.

"The winner of the best picture is-oh my god, this is incredible, "Brokeback Mountain"!" As the presenter Tom Hanks announced loudly, the whole theater seemed to be in boiling water. When a ladle of oil goes in, there will be a crackling noise.

Although Angela controlled her emotions immediately, her eyes widened in disbelief. How is this possible?Could it be that the judges' heads are broken? !

This time, she was pushed twice by Mavis before she realized it, but even as a producer and McKinley was still a little dazed when she came on stage to receive the best film trophy on behalf of Pixar, and the speech was just simple. After saying a few words, I thanked the original author Ms. Prue again, stepped off the stage and returned to my seat. The formulaic smile on my face did not seem to be happy for Pixar to win the best movie for 4 times in a row.

"I really don't understand why your interest wasn't very high all night?" Meivis couldn't help jokingly said.

"I'm just wondering now, why did the film academy award the best film to "Brokeback Mountain"?" Angela frowned and said in a puzzled way, as if she was asking Meivis and talking to herself.

"What? You don't think "Brokeback Mountain" should win the best picture?" Mavis raised her eyebrows.

"Hmm..." The girl hesitated for a moment, but still told her the question once.

"It sounds complicated. I don't know much about the entertainment industry, so I can't give you much advice." Meivis paused, then suddenly remembered something: "By the way, there is some news that maybe you can For reference."

"What news?" Angela suddenly became interested.

“Almost two weeks ago, there was a massive demonstration by gay groups in Texas. It started when two male gay couples in Houston were sued for having… Sentence them guilty." Meiweisi said after finishing her thoughts, "The two men refused to accept the verdict, and they have now brought it to the Supreme Court. Judgment, in this case, Texas will become..."

"The 45th or 46th state to abolish the Anti-Sodomy Law!" Angela continued, pinching her fingers. Looking at Ubi who was making the final speech on the stage, she suddenly understood why the Academy of Film took away the most The best film is given to the best director, the lesser of two evils!
