Superstar - Chapter 2177
Hugo felt that he was absolutely dizzy. He actually forgot about it-he was the winner of last year’s best actor, so naturally he was the guest of honor for this year’s best actress; and Charlize is the same. The guest of honor for the best actor came backstage.
Hugo looked at Charlize’s gloating smile, gritted his teeth ferociously, walked in front of Charlize, bowed his head and said in her ear, “You can’t laugh after you go home at night.” After that, he said. Hugo handed the little golden man to Charlize, followed the staff to the side, and began to prepare for the string of words. Looking back, he found Charlize’s astonished and shy expression, which made Hugo proudly outline it. The corners of his mouth were raised.
On the stage, Steven is announcing the best director award. In fact, the award ceremony has reached this stage. “The Sixth Sense of Supernatural” was left behind because it missed the best original screenplay; “The Green Miracle” and “The Law of Cider House” were not won first prize and did not compete in the leading role. , Has also fallen behind; the one who can compete with the “beautiful mind” still leaves the last seeded player and the most powerful competitor-“Breaking Inside Story”.
Although “Breaking Inside Story” has not yet opened yet, the two departments of Best Actor and Best Director are shortlisted for competition. If both of these awards are won, then there is still hope for a fight to the death with “Beautiful Mind”. This also left a trace of suspense for the best director award.
It is a pity that this last bit of suspense has also been stifled. After winning the Directors Guild of America Award, Ron Howard of “Beautiful Mind” successfully ruled the Oscar and won his first Oscar statuette.
At this time, the suspense of the best film no longer exists. After including the four statuettes, “Beautiful Mind” is already a great success, and other works are no longer possible to fight back. Perhaps the only suspense at the moment is-who will be the winner of the Best Actor Award?
After Steven and Lang left the stage hand in hand, Hugo made another appearance, this time as the guest of honor for best actress. However, due to the limited suspense of this award, Hilary Swank relied on her outstanding performance in “Boys Don’t Cry”. Even the wonderful performance of Jenny McTeer in “Dandelion” is also very difficult. Counterattack, so the atmosphere of the whole scene is relatively relaxed.
Finally, Hugo announced the answer, “Hilary Swank,’boy don’t cry'”. Such a suspenseless answer made the scene calm. Everyone just stood up and congratulated Hillary with applause. After Charlize last year, another actress under the age of thirty was born. The Oscar at the turn of the century is undergoing earth-shaking changes.
Hilary walked onto the stage, but she couldn’t make a sound. When she took the Little Golden Man from Hugo, her hands trembled uncontrollably. Even if she was a step away, she could clearly feel the deep-rooted feeling. joy. Hugo gave Hillary a big hug, and then sincerely sent his blessings, and congratulated Hillary with applause.
When Hugo and Hillary returned to the side stage, Charlize was already waiting at the entrance. Hillary, who had just received the Little Golden Man, wiped her tears and showed a big smile, “I still remember the picture of you two winning at the same time last year. It’s really perfect.” A sentence made Hugo and Charlie. The two of them exchanged glances and laughed blankly.
Maybe the 71st Oscar will eternally become a classic, or it will be eternally talked about by people, but what is certain is that the beautiful moments of that night will remain in the long river of time forever and cannot be erased. Hugo and Charlize also don’t know whether this is a good thing or a bad thing, whether it belongs to them or belongs to everyone’s memories.
Charlize congratulated Hillary again and gave Hugo a look. Then, under the guidance of the staff, he walked onto the stage. Hugo turned his head back to the waiting room, and then he saw Steven Spielberg, Ron Howard and others standing in the room. Steven beckoned to Hugo, “Don’t go back to your seat.” Yes, the next two awards have your business.”
“How did you know that there was something about me?” Hugo smiled and walked over, “Did you vote for me in both departments?”
Steven laughed and said, “Can I bypass you? This seems like a difficult task.”
Hugo spread his hands, “Isn’t that the reason why the malignant tumor was turned into a malignant tumor?” The calm appearance made all the colleagues in the waiting room chuckle.
Hugo can be called a “tumor” because he is good enough that people can’t ignore his existence at all. It’s like Jack Nicholson, like Meryl Streep. Hugo’s answer was calm, self-defeating, and self-confidence.
At the same time, many people in the audience are also discussing this topic-just like the best adapted screenplay award, people think that Hugo is a Hollywood cancer, don’t vote for him, but there are still many people hesitating and swaying. In the end, Hugo was chosen, which allowed Hugo to defeat a group of powerful competitors and win the award for best adapted screenplay.
What about now? In the best actor department where Hugo’s advantage is more obvious? In a department where almost no one can challenge Hugo? Is Hugo really going to achieve an incredible re-election?
This is not just a simple re-election, but the third actor Golden Man in just five years. What is even more frightening is that he completed this feat before he was thirty-three years old-in the long history of filming, thirty-three years old The following actor winners are only two (not including Hugo himself), Richard Dreyfus and Maximilian Schell (.), even with the best supporting actor, only six That’s it.
Therefore, everyone became curious, and everyone was asking their partners around, “Who did you vote for?” Trying to find the answer that is about to be revealed from the clues.
Michael Mann looked at Russell Crowe next to him in surprise, “What did you say?”
Russell shrugged, “I voted for Hugo, you heard me right.”
Michael’s face was full of disbelief. Russell voted for a competitor when Russell himself joined the competition. This is indeed very rare-at least from Russell’s expression, he doesn’t seem to be joking, “You Is it because of Hugo’s kindness to you?” Michael asked curiously.
“Michael, you are disrespectful to Hugo and also disrespectful to me.” Russell looked a little unhappy. “Hugo’s performance in the’Beautiful Mind’ is indeed the best, almost one of the best. I think other competitors-including myself-are not on the same level as him, so my vote is objective and fair.”
Seeing Russell’s excitement, Michael had already caught the attention of others around him. He had to put his finger on his lips, motioned to make Russell whisper, and then turned his head to look at the stage awkwardly, without saying anything. Obviously Russell was reluctant to discuss further, turned his head and looked towards the stage.
After a while, Michael whispered to Russell, “Actually, I also voted for Hugo…”
The 72nd Oscar’s best actor’s competitive lineup can be regarded as luxurious. The “sweet and humble” Sean Penn has completed the Cannes Film Festival, the Venice Film Festival and the Berlin Film Festival in one fell swoop in the past three years. The festival’s actor Grand Slam, the winning rate is amazing, and he has become the most sought-after actor on the European continent-even surpassing Hugo’s influence.
Denzel Washington of “The Hurricane” is the number one black actor in the United States. His influence and appeal are unquestionable. He once won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor in 1989, but he has not yet been able to win the actor. It is worth mentioning that he is also the winner of this year’s Berlin Film Festival.
Richard Farnsworth is seventy-nine years old this year, and he is highly respected. He was shortlisted for the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor in 1978. This year, his performance in “Mr. Streit’s Story” is very good. The audience received a lot of cheers from film critics.
Russell Crowe can only be regarded as a junior among the nominees. In 1997, “L.A. Confidential” entered Hollywood’s sight strongly. Stage fright, once again showed his acting potential, which is admirable.
But in fact, even with such a luxurious lineup, the overall feeling is still lacking, whether it is the overall quality of the work-including the “Breaking Inside Story” ~www.mtlnovel.com~ or the completeness of the actors’ performance and the exploration of the roles. The degree has not been able to meet expectations. This also makes the movie king department, which has always been the most competitive, indistinguishable.
The “Chicago Tribune” even put forward this point of view, “If there is no Hugo Lancaster’s “beautiful mind”, this Oscar will be eclipsed and pale.” This sentence is a pun on the one hand. It is the competition for the best film, on the one hand it is the battle for the movie king.
The reason why Hugo is so popular is not only because his works in previous years are brilliant, but also because he dedicated two works of “Sixth Sense of Supernatural” and “Beautiful Mind” in the past year, which is reminiscent of In 1995, because Hugo’s John Nash showed absolute strength, everyone was astounded. Whether it was the delicateness and accuracy of the performance, or the level and connotation of the performance, Hugo brought the essence of acting to the fullest. No matter how critical the critics are, they can’t help but marvel at them.
But bearing the name of Hollywood cancer, this makes the competition for best actor full of many variables in an instant, especially after Hugo took the lead in winning the best adapted screenplay tonight, the crisis of voting has reached an unprecedented height. This also makes the battle for the actor become the ultimate suspense tonight!
Under the attention of everyone, Charlize Theron opened the red envelope in his hand.
