Hollywood Road
Chapter 742
"The best art director at the Academy Award is..."
On stage, Emma Watson opened the envelope, looked down, and immediately said, "Helena espora, city of darkness!"
Applause rang out in the Dolby theater, Helena espora stood up, hugged Murphy and others in the crew one by one, and soon stepped onto the award stage.
"First!"
When Helena espora began her acceptance speech, Gail gado whispered, "the first little golden man has arrived!"
Murphy, sitting on her left, nodded her head slightly. The award ceremony lasted for more than 40 minutes, and the "dark city" crew won the first Oscar winner tonight.
It''s not that "city of darkness" has a bad start, but the previous awards are best supporting actor, best supporting actress and best costume design. City of darkness has not been nominated at all, and even has not been nominated. Naturally, there will be no Oscar winners.
"With the first..." Margot Robbie, on Gail gado''s right, is confident, "there will be a second one soon!"
It seems to confirm what she said. In the next best Photography Award, Felipe Raschel, who just won two years ago, once again stood on the Oscar podium.
It seems that the best photography and the previous best art director have opened up the award-winning account of "dark city". In the next 50 minutes, Murphy''s crew has become a veritable prize harvester, and won six Oscars for best sound editing, best sound effects, best art guidance, best makeup, best editing and best soundtrack.
"Eight nominees, eight little golden men..."
Leonardo DiCaprio turned to Murphy''s side and said, "is he really going to be the big winner tonight?"
Although he did not want to see this situation, he was unable to stop it from becoming a reality step by step.
"Eight in eight!"
On the other side, Angelina Jolie frowned and said to Brad Pitt, "is the college really going to give Murphy Stanton the biggest piece of cake?"
"It''s just eight technical awards, and together, it''s not much better than the best supporting actress we got." Brad Pitt is full of confidence. "The best film must be ours. Don''t forget our film theme!"
The black theme is the most powerful weapon he used to attack the Oscars. Before the nomination list came out, he also ordered some black people in the circle to make trouble. Those stupid people who have no brains can''t see clearly. Even if the so-called black films win, the final winners are not those who invest in making films?
The 100% hit rate seems quite amazing, but the Oscar is not a tragedy of not winning first and then losing. After all, the eight little golden men won can be said to be technical awards, and no one can guess whether the Academy will share the cake.
But Murphy believes that "dark city" will be the biggest winner!
On the one hand, the host, Alan DeGeneres, started with Catholicism, and even ridiculed that the torrential rain in Los Angeles before the Oscars was caused by some people''s deliberate prayer to let God punish Hollywood, but Hollywood would not stop, so the awards ceremony started again.
On the other hand, the theme of this year''s Oscars ceremony is full of praise for heroes.
What is the artistic standard for Oscar to choose films? Throughout the history of the past 86 years, it can only be said that the Oscar is very changeable, especially in the past decade. Sometimes it likes heavy and hard topics, sometimes it likes a noisy and positive atmosphere, sometimes it wants to get close to young people, sometimes it feels that the world is old, and it is not suitable for pretending to be young, sometimes it is funny, sometimes it is sensational, sometimes it carries social responsibility on its shoulders, and sometimes it feels that art is not enough It is to serve the art itself well
To put it simply, most of the time, the theme is more important than the standard in Oscar, the most important award in American film industry. Setting a theme every year and selecting films according to the theme may be the most appropriate for Oscar. Compared with many other film awards, it is more mainstream and more commercial, and finds the most prominent annual entertainment trend from a large number of films every year, The annual collective values can be regarded as a valuable summary.
Shortly after the opening ceremony of tonight''s awards ceremony, there were scenes of animated hero characters introduced by Kim Carrey and real hero characters introduced by Harrison Ford, which revealed the keynote of this year''s Oscar: the world needs heroes. Let''s praise these people who have dedicated themselves to the world.
"Dark city" is a film reflecting heroes with strong realism and philosophical thinking. To a certain extent, it just reflects the spirit of this Oscar.
Even Murphy is speculating that, because of the social situation before, those old men in the Academy want to express the stand of Hollywood film industry independence, and deliberately released such an Oscar theme in order to support him and "dark city".
It is true that there are nearly 6000 judges in the Academy Awards, and no one can guarantee that they will affect most of them. But the reason why the old men in the core of the academy are extremely important is that some of their views and positions will affect many people''s voting choices.And these views and positions often become the theme of the current Academy Awards ceremony.
The theme of this session is particularly obvious, showing the importance of real heroes.
Murphy sat quietly in his seat, watching the host Alan DeGeneres joking on the stage.
played hardcore skills make complaints about the last Oscar presenter Seth Macfarlane, opening up to many of Oscar''s movie "I saw your Mimi", laughing at Charlize, Theron, Nicole and so on, and then hurried to reflect: "not Tucao assembly, not all stars are willing to be written into heavy flavors." It''s in the woods.
So, this year''s Oscar host, Alan DeGeneres, has long promised that she will not make fun of the stars.
In fact, Ellen DeGeneres''s special identity and female affinity make her laugh at anyone - for example, in the previous joke, she joked about the age of the oldest June Squibb, but all of them are harmless.
But that doesn''t mean this year''s Oscars are fun.
In Gail gado''s words, tonight''s Academy Awards ceremony is more like a test of patience. The process is tedious and poorly designed.
Even an excellent host like Alan DeGeneres can''t make the dusky Oscar ceremony full of fun.
In spite of her efforts, the effect is very general.
No matter how good a comedian is, there are times when his performance is bad, especially when he is on the Oscar stage which is the most difficult to host.
Ellen DeGeneres''s few highlights basically appear in the audience, for example, she also pulled out a large number of Hollywood stars to play selfie, and then sent it to twitter. Although it looks more like a Samsung advertisement, the crazy twitter click has aroused many people''s interest.
On the stage, Ellen DeGeneres is making fun of Jonah Hill''s JJ again, and then running into the crowd again, causing some topics. She tries to reproduce the impromptu performance in the talk show, but her "magic" is no longer there.
It''s a cruel fact that every funny stem in the award ceremony will make the audience and even the audience in front of the TV look up at the clock - it''s still a long time before the end of the whole award ceremony.
Yes, it''s the super long rhythm that makes Alan DeGeneres feel powerless.
The rhythm of the whole award ceremony was very slow. The process of awarding the first prize took a lot of time, and then the second one.
Nowadays, some major award ceremonies will exceed the live broadcast time, but no award ceremony has ever spent so much time on award presentation like tonight''s Oscar, until 11:30 p.m. Western time, and even the best original screenplay award has not been awarded.
Among them, nostalgia is the most time-consuming. As a tradition of Oscars, some clips are often played at the awards ceremony.
It''s too boring for the audience to watch this year''s awards ceremony, but it''s a waste of time.
Not to mention the ordinary audience, Murphy turned to have a look. Most of the young directors and actors were also impatient. That is to say, when the camera lens came, they would squeeze out a smile.
In fact, it''s not hard to understand that Oscars and academy always miss the past and praise the golden age, as if the directors and actors are weak chickens now.
Although the college does not have this kind of consciousness, it is difficult not to let people have this kind of bad Association.
Constant nostalgia leads to slow rhythm, which also makes some of the host Ellen DeGeneres''s jokes ineffective. She even once sat in front of the stage with a guitar, but nothing happened.
Murphy even doubts whether the Oscars organizing committee is still counting the tickets backstage.
The show has been delayed for a long time. The male guests said that many women are going to suffer. For example, stars like Margot Robbie don''t eat dinner at all in order to walk on the red carpet. They start to go on the red carpet in the middle of the afternoon until midnight now. It''s not a good feeling.
Especially Alan DeGeneres made a big pizza on the stage
Near 12:00 p.m., a long old video finally came to an end, and the award ceremony came to the final six awards. After Robert De Niro first presented the best adapted screenplay award, Jessica Alba came to the stage to present the best original screenplay award!
