Chapter 1473 1473 The crisis of voting
This is what Hugo and Christopher do today, advocating Hollywood to produce more works that reflect social problems and shoulder their social responsibilities.
Christopher was a victim of his own experience. After his horse crash, many news was buzzing. Many media swear to believe that he had passed away. This is really a huge irony. The media that should have shouldered social responsibilities always put interests first. Hugo is the same. He relies on his own to do so, through the two works of "Seven Deadly Sins" and "Death-infernal Walk", not only shakes the lofty status of the uncrowned king, but also makes the whole society realize that the current society is already pathological.
Therefore, it is really appropriate to have Christopher and Hugo jointly serve as special guests in this session.
When Hugo unlocked the fixed pillars of the wheelchair methodically again, everyone at the scene stood up and applauded again, giving Christopher a high respect with the hottest applause. Amid the thunderous applause, Hugo pushed Christopher away from the stage and ended their mission.
Back on the side stage, Susan Sarandon and Robin Williams came up, and both of them greeted Christopher enthusiastically. It can be seen that they should have been familiar friends.
Hugo had only time to say hello to Susan, and Susan had to leave because she was going to go on stage to serve as the award presenter. She gave Hugo a gift and said with a smile, "I hope I will be your goddess of luck." Then Hugo, who was confused, walked onto the stage.
Hugo and Robin pushed Christopher back to the dressing table, and Dana was already standing there waiting. "Dear Dana, I hope my performance just now can satisfy you." Hugo said with a smile, which made the people around him chuckled.
Dana printed a kiss on Hugo's cheek, "Your performance just now is perfect, although it's still a little worse than Chris." This made everyone around her smile even brighter.
Hugo originally wanted to chat with Robin and Christopher for a few more words, but the staff came over and patted Hugo on the shoulder, signaling that he should go back to his seat first, because Hugo is an important protagonist tonight. The director has been unable to scan Hugo in the seat, which is not good for the ratings.
Hugo could only say goodbye to everyone briefly and then left the background.
Just as Hugo was busy just now, the award ceremony was halfway through, and each award was found.
In the competition for the Best Audio Award, "Apollo 13" defeated "Eternal Batman", "Seven Deadly Sins", "Brave Heart", "Red Tide Storm (c-Sun Mson.tide)" and "Future Water World", and laughed to the end in this fierce award.
The Best Original Song Award was won by "The Legend of the Wind", and the theme song sung by Bruce Springsteen for "The Death Prisoner" was unfortunately defeated; the Best Drama Soundtrack Award fell into the hands of "Postman", revealing a big and small unpopularity, especially the two misfortunes of "Reason and Emotion" and "Brave Heart" were shocking; in the Best Music Comedy Soundtrack Award, the nominated "Before Sunrise", which was nominated, was not able to be upset, and "The Legend of the Wind" won without any suspense.
However, the best foreign language film has once again become unpopular. The popular "postman" and "don't fall in love in the classroom" failed to win, but the Dutch film "Antonia" that is not visible and unrestrained, won the extremely competitive Little Best Film Award.
Among the other technical department awards, the best sound editing and best makeup were successfully won by "Brave Heart", and the best visual effect was finally attributed to "Baby Pig".
The Best Movie Editing Award, which is believed to be the most important film, has ushered in the hottest competition, "Seven Deadly Sins", "Pig Baby", "Brave Heart", "Red Tide Storm", and "Apollo 13" each have their own advantages and disadvantages, but in the end, "Apollo 13", which was in the leading position in the nomination stage, ended up laughing.
Halfway through the award ceremony, the whole situation gradually became clear. All the "Seven Deadly Sins" that won four nominations were lost. They were eliminated without a single award. Although this film relied on its strong social influence and achieved an incredible counterattack in the nomination stage, it was trapped by the theme issues of the work itself, as well as the overall completion and the excavation level, but it was still not able to get closer. "Pig Baby" who was not nominated for acting skills was completely defeated in the technical department and only won the Best Visual Effects Award, and it was basically confirmed that it had fallen behind.
In the main competitive landscape, the "Brave Heart" holds three small gold men in the lead position for the time being; two small gold men in "Apollo 13" were also recorded, and both awards were won by defeating the direct competitor "Brave Heart", which seemed no less than that, which also made the competition even more intense.
However, in addition to this, other major contestants are still in the competition team. There are two small gold men in the acting department, two small gold men in the script department, two small gold men in the director department, best film and other six small gold men in the best film. "Brave Heart" and "Apollo 13" are still difficult to distinguish, "Reason and Emotion" still have the opportunity to turn over at the last moment, "Death Prison Walk", "Before Sunrise", "Far Away from the Casino", "Postman" and other works are still competitive.
It can be said that the first half was just a warm-up, and the real excitement was still in the second half.
When Hugo returned to his position, Susan was introducing the list of waitlists on the stage. Hugo whispered to Charlize and Meryl said hello, and his eyes met Kevin Spacey in the back row, and the two smiled at each other. Then Hugo sat down and noticed that Susan was responsible for the Best Original Script Award today. No wonder Susan said she hoped she was Hugo's goddess of luck, because Hugo won a place in this department.
The excellent script "Before Sunrise" has allowed Hugo to join the screenwriter department for the second consecutive year, competing with works such as "Extreme Suspect", "Brave Heart", "The Legend of Nixon", and "Toy Story".
There is no doubt that this is one of the most competitive departments, especially because Hugo's participation has made the situation even more chaotic. The top five works are close in strength and there is no absolute advantage in the work. It can be said that every work has the possibility of winning.
Finally, Susan opened the envelope and showed a meaningful smile to the audience. However, Hugo saw a hint of regret in Susan's bright big eyes. Susan announced, "The winner of the 68th Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay is, 'Very Suspect', Christopher Maikaulley (Chrissopher.mcquar Day E)."
Hugo smiled and applauded the independent filmmaker who once created the "public.access" and won the Sundance Jury Award. Christopher was very young. He was even one year younger than Hugo, but he showed outstanding independent film talent over the past three years.
"Very Suspect" unexpectedly won outstanding recognition at the Oscars, only won two nominations: Best Supporting Actor and Best Original Script, but they laughed at both awards and won every hit! Moreover, it was a feat to defeat Hugo, who had a great reputation in both departments.
Only then did people realize that Hugo, who became the focus before the award ceremony, failed in both of the current two nominations. This is definitely not a good thing. The result clearly proves to everyone a fact: Hugo's vote-sharing crisis has reached an unprecedented peak!
After the Oscar nomination list was released, Hugo could be said to be extremely glorious, comparable to Emma Thompson who was nominated for five in four years, and became another outstanding artist after Emma who was able to win nominations in both acting and screenwriter departments.
In the history of Oscars, no one has been able to do acting at the same time. The screenwriter department has gained the Golden Man. Woody Allen, who was once the closest to this goal, has not been able to do it. Now Woody has transferred more energy to the director position and has rarely acted, so the candidate who is most likely to break this record has become the current Emma and Hugo.
This is definitely a rare record.
In fact, Hugo has super strength in Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, and Best Original Screenplay. From an objective theoretical perspective, Hugo has the ability to win awards in all three departments. There is no need to say more about "Death Prison Walking" and "Seven Deadly Sins". The original script department that participated in "Before Sunrise" also benefited from the previously glorious "reason and emotion" that was divided into the adapted script department, and then received a lot of support. The wisdom, sensitivity and delicacy that Hugo injected into this work undoubtedly carried forward the creative art of the script, and relied entirely on lines to promote the story's framework structure, which gave the screenwriters countless inspiration.
Therefore, Hugo's calls for awards in all three departments have reached unprecedented heights.
But everything will turn against each other. This is the iron law of nature. When Hugo has the ability to win awards in all three departments, the decision of the voting judges becomes elusive. Will all three departments vote for Hugo? This is obviously not possible, it seems too exaggerated and deliberate; will not vote for Hugo in all three departments? Because considering that others will definitely give Hugo a vote, it is feasible to vote for friends by yourself; choose one of the three departments? Or choose two? Then how should we choose? At the same time, let Hugo dominate the acting and screenwriter departments? Or choose one of the two?
Especially when some people insist on investing in one department and selecting others in the other two departments... the choice of more than 5,000 judges can lead to countless possibilities. The vote-segment crisis reaches its peak, and the most direct possibility is: Hugo returns empty-handed.
This is also whenever there are double nominations and three nominations at the award ceremony, people will think that the unlimited glory of the nomination stage will often lead to nothing in the award ceremony.
Now, this terrible possibility is becoming a reality step by step: Best Supporting Actor, lose; Best Original Screenplay, lose; So, what about Best Actor?
