After decades of wandering trip to Los Angeles, the Oscars finally returned to the regional Hollywood. The newly completed Kodak Theater is located at the junction of Highland Avenue and Hollywood Avenue, adjacent to the Hollywood Chinese Theater. This is the venue of the 74th Academy Awards.

The Oscars return to Hollywood, coupled with the terrorist attacks a few months ago, made this award ceremony particularly eye-catching, especially many media were worried in advance whether the award ceremony would become a new target of terrorists.

In order to ensure the smooth progress of the award ceremony, the Film Academy not only limited the scale of the red carpet, but also hired several professional security companies to provide security services.

In addition, the Los Angeles County Police Department has deployed a large number of police forces near the Kodak Theater, and even three SWAT teams are on standby around, and can provide anti-terrorism support at any time.

However, none of these can affect Hollywood stars showing off their charm on the red carpet, especially female stars. In addition to their beautiful faces and sexy figures, luxurious dresses and expensive jewelry are also tools for competing for beauty.

Because of the advance greeting, Ryan walked on the red carpet earlier.

He just waved to both sides and passed the long red carpet as soon as possible. He did not enter the interview area where the stage was specially built, and went directly to the Kodak Theater.

While greeting people casually, Ryan found a place where he could see the entrance clearly and start waiting. Many people entering the theater chose to come and greet him. Some of these people went directly into the main hall of the theater. Some gathered together and whispered.

The Oscars are a gathering place for Hollywood celebrities and a good place to communicate and expand connections.

"Ryan..."

Spielberg walked over. After shook hands with him, he helped him with his eyes, "Who are you waiting for?"

"I don't know who I'm waiting for." Ryan waved his hand, obviously not wanting to continue the topic, "Is there anything wrong, Stephen?"

If it was because of DreamWorks, Ryan could only say that he could not help. Every circle has its own rules.

Stephen Spielberg obviously understood this truth. He didn't mention this topic at all. He said directly, "I want to invite you to star in my new movie."

"New movie?" Ryan was a little curious. The other party's "Minority Report" had not been released yet.

Speaking of which, things are quite interesting. Ryan took Leonardo's "The Cat and Mouse Game", but Spielberg still asked him to work on a movie. It was the role of Tom Cruise in his previous life in "Minority Report".

"Yes, preparations are currently being made. If the filming starts, it will be next year at the earliest." Spielberg and others who were walking by the side shook hands with Ryan, and continued, "The subject matter is adapted from the real event."

"Oh?" Ryan couldn't help but recall, "Can you just say it briefly?"

"The Munich incident in 1972..." Spielberg saw Ryan nodding slightly. Then he said briefly, "I plan to adapt a movie based on this tragedy. I have asked someone to write the script..."

"So it, Stephen." Ryan had already seen Nicole walking over with Naomi Watts, "Give me a copy after the script is finished. What should we discuss at that time? You know, my work and schedule are a bit tight."

"Okay." Spielberg nodded. He waved to Nicole again, and then walked into the main hall of the theater.

Nicole smiled and nodded while walking up to Ryan, "It looks like you're very leisurely."

"Dear, you're so beautiful." Ryan didn't take her words at all, and directly used a trick of trying to say something, and said to Naomi Watts beside Nicole, "You are also amazing, Nami... Hey, you are competitors, how can you walk together?"

"I haven't said thank you yet, Ryan." Naomi Watts is a sensible person. It's not so much that "Mulholland Road" has brought him the best actress nomination, but rather that the two people around him are operating behind the scenes.

"We are friends, aren't we?" Nicole pulled her gently.

The effort must be rewarded accordingly. Of course, Ryan will not forget those friends who still support him and Nicole when facing a choice.

"Don't you go in together?" Nicole pulled down her pink evening dress.

"I'll wait a little longer." Ryan looked at Nicole carefully again, "You're so beautiful."

But Nicole curled her lips and pulled Naomi Watts and left directly.

To be honest, Ni is now a veritable queen of the red carpet. Tonight's Chanel pink thin suspender evening dress not only makes her look brighter, but the ruffled design on the skirt also adds a bit gentleness.

Similarly, Charlize Theron, who has a very high reputation for winning the award, is also one of the eye-catching points of the red carpet tonight. She chose Dior's silver-gray evening dress. The fishtail design sets off her graceful and beautiful person, and has a faint aura of the queen of the red carpet.

However, Charlize did not come over directly, but found his mother first.

When the two equally tall blonde women walked in front of them, Ryan greeted him very politely, "Hello, Mrs. Gerda."

"Hello." The other party just nodded, whispered in Charlize's ear, and then walked into the main hall of the theater first.

"Don't mind, Ryan." Charlize didn't seem to know what to say, "Mom just..."

"I understand, my dear." Ryan shook her hand hard, not caring about the occasional gaze around him, and then changed the topic, "Have you thought about your acceptance speech?"

"I may not be the one who walks onto the stage." Charlize looked at the entrance of the theater, and several black movie stars walked in one after another. "You seem to have forgotten the recent criticism of me by the media."

"Don't worry, those won't have too many adverse effects on you." Ryan whispered to comfort.

Nowadays, the bottom line of Oscars is getting lower and lower, and criticizing opponents has gradually become the norm. During the time when the college mailed ballots, some tabloids once again dug out the sad things of Charlize's girlhood and hyped up.

Among them, she said that for a long time after her father's death, she had been addicted to alcohol and poisons. There were many remarks about it.

Some people even clamored on the Internet, saying that in order to get her mother out of guilt, she had perjured evidence in the case of her father's death...

Of course, the remarks in these tabloids will not affect the judges' views too much.

"Are you going together?" Charlize's hand naturally placed in his arms, and Ryan could only make a sorry gesture, "I'd better wait a little longer before going in."

"Okay, I'll go in first." Charlize sighed softly and waved his hand and left.

Several black movie stars who passed by came to say hello one after another. Ryan also smiled at each other, but he could only say sorry in his heart. The number of places for the best actors in the film is too limited. If someone took it away, what should he take?

In fact, their winnings are really upset. Whether it is professionals or media comments, the popularity of the best actor and actress has nothing to do with the skin color.

Russell Clowe and Charlize Theron are the hottest candidates for the best actors and actresses who are most popular among the most popular actors.

Charlize, in particular, swept the best actresses of various film awards in the awards season with a storm of wind and leaves, before the Oscar.

Best Actress in the Broadcasting Critics Association Awards, Best Actress in the Central Ohio Film Critics Association Awards, Best Actress in the Chicago Film Critics Association Awards, Best Actress in the Dallas-Fort Worth Film Critics Association Awards, Best Actress in the Golden Globe Awards, Best Actress in the Drama Film Critics Association Awards, Best Actress in the Independent Spirit Awards, Best Actress in the Las Vegas Film Critics Association Awards, Best Actress in the American Actors Association Awards...

All of these were taken into account by South African American Diamonds, which was much more fierce than Ryan's last year.

Since he walked on the red carpet alone, entering the main hall of the theater alone is the best choice. Ryan first went to the crew of "Mr. Rouge" and came to the crew of "The Devil" and whispered a few words with Paddy Jaykins, who was not nominated for Best Director, before he arrived at the seat in the crew of "The Lord of the Rings".

In fact, in the eyes of many media, Charlize could perform Erin Vornos so perfectly, and her nightmarish memory played a crucial role. Even her former friend in South Africa revealed to the media that 'If she had not been tortured like purgatory, she would not have played a murderer so far'.

Although these words may not be unreasonable, Charlize has always grasped the degree of it well and did not let the characters in the movie affect her in reality.

As for the impact of past events, it is almost inevitable.

Charlize always behaves well and politely in front of others, but only Ryan knows that all the things she has nurtured in her heart is wildness and unruly.

For example, her desperate pursuit, such as the once alcoholic spirit mentioned by the media...

Ryan heard Keanu Reeves mention that Charlize, who had just become famous, had an amazing alcohol tolerance and could put everyone in his Sirius band down.

Of course, as the two got together, Charlize also threw his former bad habits behind her head, and she knew what kind of identity should do what kind of things.

"Hi, Peter..."

The Peter Jacksons were sitting close to Ryan. Ryan hugged them gently, "Do you remember what I said before? Peter? Now you have also received an Oscar nomination."

"It's just a nomination." Although the fat man said this, he smiled extremely brightly. "It's definitely impossible to win an award."

After talking to the familiar people around him, Ryan looked at the stage, the lights and music gradually sounded, and the award ceremony was about to begin.

The person who delivered the opening speech this year was not the newly appointed chairman of the college, Pearson, but Tom Hanks. After Tom's big tom's words about paying tribute to Montage, Whoopi Gordonburg, as the host, gave everyone a surprise.
