Just like last year's "Forrest Gump", "Pulp Novels" and "Shawshank Redemption", this year's competition has made it difficult for people to choose from, especially the showdown between Hugo and Nicholas Cage, which has become a topic since the release of "Death-infernal Affairs" and has continued to reach major awards ceremonies. Then it reached a white-hot level because of the Golden Globe Awards. The Berlin Film Festival has pushed the debate value of the topic to its peak!

The college's move to give Hugo a double nomination for acting has made the problem more complicated, and the answers that were originally undetermined have become even more elusive and unpredictable.

Not to mention ordinary audiences, even the entertainment reporters in the circle are arguing endlessly. Almost everyone has their own answers. It is conceivable that the inner struggles and pains of the judges in the college when voting will make tomorrow night's award ceremony more interesting.

Nicholas looked at the reporter who was arguing fiercely in front of him, laughed in silence, turned to look at James, "No matter how strong they compete, so what? It's not us who voted."

James also laughed, "It means that the topic effect this time is strong enough."

Generally speaking, entertainment journalists don’t feel so strong in their sense of immersion, because they clearly know that this industry is operating in this way. Oscars and Little Golden People are not able to control themselves by relying on the words of media reporters. It is difficult to hit the point of what choice the Academy of Film Arts and Sciences, which has more than 5,000 members, will make, and this is also one of the biggest charms of the Oscars. Just like the "reason and emotion" that accidentally fell behind in the nomination stage is really beyond the expectations of many people. Therefore, journalists generally look at it from an objective perspective, not as an honor, but as a feast, a party, and a news topic.

However, this time it was a little different.

At the 66th Academy Awards, Hugo won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor Award with "Schindler's List" and became the second youngest winner in film history after Timothy Hutton; the following year, Hugo won applause from the public opinion with the amazingly delicate and humorous performance in "Pulp Novels". Many people even thought he could be called emperor in one fell swoop, but it turned out to be a foil for Tom Hanks to create history. This year, Hugo ushered in a big explosion in acting, and almost everyone thought that this was the year that belonged to Hugo.

But the Golden Globes said "no" to this, and in an instant, the trend of the entire award ceremony became interesting. The topic effect produced by Hugo as the core quickly swept across the entire North American continent: Should we choose the anonymous person who chose the "Seven Deadly Sins" or Matthew who chose "Death-infernal stroll"? Where will the head-on decisive decisive decisive decisive decisive decisive destiny go in the end? Will Hugo and Nicholas Cage have unexpected results in the competition? Can Hugo win the championship in the best original script?

The most important thing is, can Hugo, who won three nominations for acting, win the Little Golden Man again after the "Schindler's List" and push the powerful momentum of the past few years to the peak? Or will it be too much and return empty-handed in the end?

If you miss such a wonderful year, can Hugo replicate such a miracle again? If you don’t win the award this year, does it mean that Hugo will never have a chance? Will it be prosperous and declining, and will it start to go downhill from then on, repeating the path after the “Death Poetry Club”?

Countless suspense and countless question marks completely touched people's sense of expectation.

Although the concept of awards season has not yet been formed, the results of previous major awards ceremony have become a reference for people. Hugo won the titles of the National Critics Association Award, the American Actors Association Award, the Los Angeles Film Critics Association Award, the Chicago Film Critics Association Award and the Berlin Film Festival. Nicholas Cage won the titles of the National Critics Association Award, the New York Film Critics Association Award, the San Francisco Film Critics Association Award, the Boston Film Critics Association Award and the Golden Globe Award. It can be said that the two people are moving forward in unison, no matter how high or low it is, and it is difficult to decide the winner.

Strictly speaking, Nicholas Cage also had a slight advantage because Hugo won the Silver Bear Award for Best Actor at the Berlin Film Festival.

Although the situation of the Golden Globes became extremely embarrassing after Hugo returned from Berlin, in fact, everyone knows that the tastes of Berlin and Oscars are completely different. On the contrary, the tastes of the Golden Globes are the closest to the Oscars.

As of 1996, there were only three actors who won all the Best Actor and Best Actress in the history of the Berlin Film Festival, including Sidney Poitier in 1963, Lee Marvin in 1965 and Tom Hanks in 1994.

It can be seen that Oscars do not agree with the aesthetic concept of the Berlin Film Festival. Many people even joked that the winner of Best Actor and Best Actress at the Berlin Film Festival in February could directly declare that he had no chance to be with Oscar. Although this is just a joke, it can be seen from this that the orientations of these two associations are completely different.

The Golden Globes are a different face. Their winning list and the Oscar overlap rate is very high. In the past five years, the Golden Globes and the Oscar winners have been consistent with each other four times, and the actress’s best actors have even maintained five consecutive syncs.

This is also an important reason for the uproar after the Golden Globe Awards. Everyone believes that Hugo has the upper hand this year and is definitely a good opportunity to win the award. However, Nicholas emerged and dominated the Golden Globe Awards. In addition, the other five departments of the Golden Globe Awards this year were also in chaos, which created a chaos that thousands of people were criticized.

Later, although Hugo won the Silver Bear Award for Best Actor at the Berlin Film Festival, although the aesthetic fit is not high, the suspense is still brought back. Can Hugo create miracles again?

It can be said that such a huge suspense has made the media reporters who are participants ignite curiosity. They are witnesses, participants and founders of Hugo's glory in the past few years, so they are more enthusiastic, excited and excited than anyone else, which has also made them join the hot discussion.

However, as the last voice said just now, the nominee has a chance, not just Hugo and Cage.

At present, Massimo Trossi of the "postman" and Anthony Hopkins of the "Nixon Legend" are temporarily behind, but Richard Dreyfus also showed that Cage's hard power was not inferior to Hugo. It was just because of its weak topic, so it was submerged.

Richard, 49 years old this year, is also an important figure in Hollywood. His famous work is "American Style Painting" directed by George Lucas. He then served as the male lead of Steven Spielberg's "Great White Jaws" and "The Third Class Contact (close.encounters.of.the.third.kind)". He also defeated Woody Allen and John Travolta at the 50th Academy Awards and became the youngest actor in Oscar film history. He was only 30 years and 156 days when he won the award. This record has been preserved until today when the Oscars are about to kick off this year.

As we all know, Oscars always attach more importance to the qualifications of male actors in the Best Actor Department. Most of the golden age for male actors to win awards is after the age of 40. So far, there are only six male actors who have won awards under the age of 35.

Clark Gable won the first prize when he was thirty-four by relying on "one night wind and flow"; James Stewart won the award when he was thirty-three by relying on "the Philadelphia Story"; when Malone Brando was about to turn thirty-one, he won the emperor with "the dock wind"; Maximi Lian.schell won the Little Golden Man at the age of thirty-one by "the trial of Nuremberg"; Daniel Day Lewis was only thirty-two when he was thirty-two. Then Richard, who broke the youngest winning record.

Moreover, after entering the mid-1960s, the judges began to sneer at handsome handsome guys. Handsome guys like Clark Gable, Malone Brando, and James Stewart who could win awards in their thirties have almost disappeared unless they are old, such as Paul Newman.

This year, Richard contributed a wonderful performance in "Life is beautiful because of you" and ushered in another peak in his acting career. Although his momentum is not as good as Hugo and Cage, no one can deny his absolute strength. It can be said that if Richard broke the shackles this year and won the award in an upset, this will also be a new record. He joined Malone Brando, Tom Hanks and others and became the seventh actor in film history to win the Best Actor twice.

Of course, if Hugo or Nicholas wins the award, it will set a record in history. They can all join the ranks of winners who are under 35 years old, and Hugo will be the first winner to start with the word "two" to break the history of the film.

Especially considering that Hugo is only twenty-eight years old and he is a handsome guy, this also puts a fog on the whole situation. You know, less than 10% of the male actors who were nominated for the first time were less than 30 years old. After the 1980s, a premise was added: he cannot be a handsome guy.

However, under all these unfavorable conditions, Hugo, who valued the most, has fully possessed the qualifications of the Oscars. The achievements of historical works, the contributions of their acting skills over the years, etc., have absolutely met the requirements. Moreover, the strong momentum of the three works last year cannot be ignored, which also makes all possibilities open and full of countless unknowns.

Hugo's challenge and record journey can be said to be a process of "impossibility". With the factors such as the Golden Globes and the Berlin Film Festival, let alone the reporters' topic effect, even the management of major production companies, top directors and producers, and behind-the-scenes staff are full of expectations for this year's Oscars, and everyone is waiting for a result. Perhaps, it is the moment of witnessing the miracle.

"No matter who wins the award, it's a night of history, isn't it?" Nicholas McNa said with a smile at James Rut, then turned around and left the crowd and walked towards the Los Angeles Times' workshop.
