Made in Hollywood

PS:   A new month has begun, continue to ask for support, continue to ask for three more updates, and ask for the next monthly ticket and recommendation ticket!

The Oscars are a big event and a big stage for shows and performances.

No matter how hostile they are in private, once a partner takes the stage, everyone will become a tacit partner.

"Andrew, I heard that you started your own animation feature film career?"

On stage, Amber Heard and Andrew Garfield were speaking a string of words carefully prepared by the screenwriters, and the latter took the former's words and said, "Yes, I have been involved in DreamWorks Animation for the past few years. dub the film and bet on Pixar to win Best Animated Feature."

A burst of laughter broke out off the stage, and the camera gave a timely close-up of Jereph Katzenberg.

"I'm so sorry, Mr. Katzenberg." Amber Heard hugged Andrew Garfield, looking like a close friend joking, "We don't know where he came from. of."

"I don't think Mr. Katzenberg would mind," said Andrew Garfield.

"Let's focus on the nominees anyway." Amber Hilderton turned to the big screen for a splendid clip of the best animated feature nominee.

Zooming in to the ground through a sky surrounded by trash, Wall-E cuts through a pile of trash and finds two objects that intrigue him - a videotape and an Oscar statuette!

Picking up the golden statue in his left hand and the videotape with his right, Wall-E hesitated for a moment, chose the videotape, and threw the golden statuette away like garbage.

Back home, Wall-E played a videotape showing a mouse making soup. Then a dog jumped out. This fast and sharp clip is to introduce the three animated feature films nominated this year - "Robot Wall-E", "Ratatouille" and "Lightning Dog".

There is no suspense about the winner, and Pixar Studios once again won the best animated feature statue with "Robot Wall-E".

Although the response from the surrounding market was indifferent, this kind of cold and reflective theme is Oscar's favorite.

The awards are given out one after the other. The location of Duke and the crew of "The Dark Knight" is undoubtedly the biggest accompaniment place. Even if it is nominated for a series of technical awards, it is only an innocuous little golden man who won the best sound effect editing.

Although the big hit "The Departed" at this awards ceremony only won two golden statuettes, far behind its main competitor "No Country for Old Men", it won the awards for best editing and best adapted screenplay. It's not hard for anyone with a little research to understand. Martin Scorsese has a big lead.

After John Travolta awarded the best costume design, Duke looked at the time, got up and left the theater, and walked backstage from the side passage, where the director of the ceremony was already waiting. After explaining a few precautions to him, he handed an envelope and a note full of words to Duke.

After slightly arranging his black dress, Duke stood at the entrance of the passage and waited for about five minutes. Then on to the stage.

There was warm applause at the Kodak Theater, and Duke was going to present the Best Supporting Actor.

As usual. This award is often given by the previous best supporting actress, so when Duke stepped onto the stage, many people below were stunned for a while, and then they figured it out.

Duke is on stage. Without any extra words, after waiting for the big screen to play the nominee's clip, he casually uttered the string words that the organizer had written long ago.

"Actor's actor, these titles are used to describe those who constantly go beyond themselves, the art of obscurity and constant exploration, and people who stick to the truth, or simply put in "Michael Crichton," Tom Wilkinson In spite of the constant questioning of what is false and what is true, fortunately Tom Wilkinson stood by the truth, so this year we praise you again."

After the "Michael Crichton" cut ends, a face with clown makeup appears on the big screen.

"Among the many great movie characters of the past year, perhaps the most memorable is the man with a clown make-up on his face, proudly sticking his head out of a speeding car, enjoying the evening breeze. Cozy, revelling in chaos, venting on the streets of Gotham City, dangerous and fickle, eccentric and vicious. Heath Ledger, as the Joker in The Dark Knight, makes us restless to see, What shocking shenanigans will he pull next, his bold and flamboyant performances, along with the rest of the characters he's cast, infused with his own unique style, Heath Ledger has left us with a unique and lasting legacy Legacy of..."

After finishing the following three paragraphs, Duke opened the envelope without any hesitation, then raised his head and said the answer, "The best supporting actor Oscar is Heath Ledger in The Dark Knight."

This is an answer without any suspense. From the moment Duke stepped on the stage, the list of winners has actually been announced.

There was warm applause in the Kodak Theater. Heath Ledger's family stood up where the crew of "The Dark Knight" was seated. Accompanied by his sister Kate Ledger, Kim Ledger and his wife walked up up the stage.

Duke and the three of them hugged gently, then handed the Oscar statuette to Kim Ledger and took the initiative to step aside.

Heath Ledger's three relatives also said a few words one after another.

"With such a talented cast and industry, I'm flattered to accept this honor."

Obviously, someone has carefully prepared for Kim Ledger, "I would like to thank the Academy for affirming Heath Ledger's outstanding performance, and thanks to Warner Bros. Pictures and Director Rosenberg, you have given Ledger a lot of room to play. , let him create the crazy clown character. Thank you Steve Alexander, thank you for sticking with him for ten years, we love you."

Heath Ledger's mother also stood in front of the microphone, "Heath Ledger has a passionate and generous heart, and he has brought a lot of excitement and inspiration to our lives. We are very moved to award him this honor, Tonight, we too will celebrate what he has accomplished."

Finally, it was his sister Kate Ledger, "Heath, we all know you've made such an extraordinary clown character. We are so proud of you and accept this award on behalf of your lovely daughter."

After their acceptance speeches, the music played by the orchestra was muffled, as if sadness spread to every corner of the Kodak Theater.

Under the guidance of the staff, Duke returned to the backstage. He didn't stop there, greeted the Ledgers who were being interviewed, and returned to the theater.

This is the Oscars. There are many ways to get awards, and this is a very different kind.

If he hadn't seen God in advance, Heath Ledger probably wouldn't have won the Best Supporting Actor 90% of the time. The reason is very, very simple. He has starred in not only big-budget commercial films, but also comic superhero movies...

Most of the Oscar judges have deep-rooted discrimination against this type of film or character, but they can care about the living, but like all the public, they are extremely tolerant of the dead.

Duke put all of this behind him, and it was a page that could be turned over.

It didn't take long for him to look at Leonardo DiCaprio with sympathy. Daniel Day-Lewis, the academy darling on the stage, had already raised the best actor statuette, Leonardo DiCaprio. Many have to continue to walk in the name of escorting professional households.

As if aware of it, Leonardo DiCaprio turned his head and returned the same look, as if telling Duke that his fate tonight would not be much better than his.

This is indeed the case, because there are three guests on the stage of the Best Director Awards - George? Lucas, Francis? Ford? Coppola, Steven? Spielberg!

When the four directors reach three at a time, it can be imagined who will receive the award.

Tonight's awards ceremony, the biggest thing to watch is actually two, Heath Ledger's has fallen into the dust, Martin Scorsese has only one answer left.

Will he continue to be his uncrowned king this night, or will he become a legend?

Perhaps the film academy also realized that a single presenter was not enough for Martin Scorsese, so they brought in Steven Spielberg, George Lucas and Francis Ford Coppola. bit.

Back in the day, Martin Scorsese and these three were collectively known as the "Four Young Directors", and then tied for the top four directors in the 1980s. If this time they met on the stage of the Kodak Theater in Los Angeles...

In order to increase the attractiveness of the Academy Awards ceremony and get rid of the dilemma of declining ratings year by year, the Academy has really put a lot of effort into it.

Of course, this is more of a lifetime achievement award.

When Martin Scorsese was promoting "The Departed" in Europe last year, the European media headed by the French "Le Figaro" once openly questioned Martin Scorsese at a press conference - is that the Has the director of Cruel Street, Taxi Driver, and Raging Bull really sold himself to Hollywood?

And old Martin replied in a decisive tone - I am an American director, I am a Hollywood director!

Even when the European media questioned Oscar on the spot, he said - I have watched every Oscar ceremony on TV since I was a child, and he grew up with me. This thing really has an indescribable magic power for me!

His words are full of support for Hollywood, the Oscars, and American films. With his status in the film industry today, the Academy will naturally give him a grand award ceremony.

The European film industry rejects Hollywood, why doesn't the North American film industry reject European films? The North American film market is definitely one of the most exclusive in the world, and there are very few examples of European films or even British black comedies being successful in the North American market.

The three directors stood in front of the microphone, and an award ceremony was about to begin. (To be continued ~^~)
