Chapter 1475 1475 The greatest suspense
Charlize was indeed very nervous. She changed from a model to an actor. Charlize has never been confident enough, so she has been persistent in polishing her acting skills over the years. She doesn't want others to treat her as a vase that is just a cross-border. This persistence has even become an obsession. She refuses commercial movies, refuses to play vase roles, and refuses to judge people by her appearance.
Charlize knew that in Hollywood, she had to know how to use her advantages. Her appearance could win her opportunities and gain more opportunities for her to exercise her acting skills. Hugo had advised her many times, and had also advised Leonardo, who held similar ideas, but this persistence quietly became an obsession in Charlize's heart, an obsession that even she could not overcome. She could not open her mind to commercial movies like Hugo or Leonardo, but she just wanted to prove herself with her acting skills.
This obsession has even become an inescapable spell.
But fortunately, this obsession was finally rewarded after "before sunrise". This work not only won her recognition, but also won her a lot of praise, which allowed her to confirm that she is indeed talented in acting and that she can use her strength to change people's impression of her vase.
In particular, the Oscar nomination affirmed her, which made her feel much more relaxed.
Charlize knew clearly that she was only twenty years old, and "before sunrise" was only her first masterpiece, and her chances of winning were almost infinitely close to zero. But even so, Charlize's inner sense of expectation was still irresistible. After talking to Hugo last night, his heartstrings that relaxed after talking to Hugo became tense again, as if they would break at any time.
She had no way to control her. She wanted to relax, but her brain and body both went on strike and could not control her at all. This feeling of tension to the extreme was too bad, as if she was dancing on the tip of a knife. The torn pain had caused all other senses to lose their sensitivity, leaving only endless pain after wave of devouring.
At this moment, Charlize heard Hugo's low voice, "Smile!" Charlize subconsciously turned his head to look at Hugo. It took him a while to see clearly that Hugo didn't hear anything, but she crashed into Hugo's eyes.
Nervous, Hugo was also nervous. The tension was like a gradually straightening rubber band. She could even see Hugo's pupils slowly shrinking; in addition, there was a little joke, a little joke, and a little gloating.
This familiar look made Charlize's tense heartstrings slowly relax. Although he was still very nervous and the sweat on his palms was so wet that it was very uncomfortable, the corners of her mouth unconsciously outlined a curve. She gritted her teeth slightly and cursed depressedly, "You'd better pray that you don't make a fool of yourself."
Then Charlize saw the smile in Hugo's eyes surging, and a faint light flashed. Charlize felt a little more relaxed. She didn't stop anymore, turned to look at Tom Hanks on the stage and let out a long sigh.
"The winner of the 68th Academy Award for Best Actress was Susan Sarandon, 'Death Prisoner Walking."
Tom's voice came out through the microphone, and Charlize's nerves slowly relaxed. The emotions mixed with disappointment, regret and relaxation surged in an instant. She didn't even have time to savor it, but she noticed Hugo's standing and applauding figure, and she immediately stood up.
All the audience stood up. After winning the nomination five times, Susan won her recognition for the first time, defeated her biggest competitors Elizabeth and Meryl, and successfully stood out. As one of the most outstanding actresses of the contemporary era, Susan was finally no longer a spectator on the Oscar stage.
Hugo urged his hands vigorously and gave Susan supreme praise. At this time, Susan just came over and hugged Hugo. Susan also printed a kiss on Hugo's cheek and said loudly in his ear, "Thank you." Then Susan hugged Charlize and other candidates politely, and then stepped onto the stage step by step.
Watching Susan walking onto the stage, Hugo turned to look at Charlize. The two of them actually met. They showed a faint smile on each other. The relief replaced the tension and slowly fainted in Charlize's eyes.
Hugo gave Charlize an encouraging look, as if saying, "The future belongs to you, today is just the beginning." This made Charlize's smile rise gently, and both of them turned to look at the stage. Then Hugo saw Susan's not strong shoulders trembling slightly, and his bright eyes flashing with crystal tears. Maybe the Oscar Little Golden Man can't represent everything, but every time he is so close to the Little Golden Man, he ends up passing by. The regret, the discouragement, the bitterness, but it makes his heart suffer. Until today, Susan finally held the Little Golden Man in his hand.
Holding the little golden man tightly, Susan took a while to calm down. "Thank you, thank you." Susan's voice trembled slightly, making people clearly feel the rolling and surging inside her. "I originally thought I would be much calmer, but... it was difficult than I expected." Susan's self-deprecating made the scene chuck, "I have been waiting for this moment, and it is even more wonderful than I thought it would be."
"Tim, I must thank you for filming such an excellent work. I love you." Susan looked at her other half sitting under the stage. Although Tim returned empty-handed tonight, Susan was able to stand on the stage at this time. This was a great victory for the "Death-infernal Walk". "Hugo, Oh, God, Hugo Lancaster." Susan's sigh made everyone at the scene chuckle. Hugo, who was innocently caught in the gun, actually appeared on the big screen again.
Susan raised her head and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, "Hugo, you are such a genius. During the filming of the movie, your efforts and talents have given me too much inspiration. It is my honor to be able to work with you." This made the scene sound noisy applause again.
Hugo was indeed a little embarrassed when he sat in his seat. He was still not used to others praising him in person. The sights projected from all directions made him feel a little hot on his cheeks. Fortunately, Susan immediately turned his head, "Today, my good friend Christopher Reeve came to the award ceremony. He mentioned that we must give more attention to society and we must assume more social responsibilities. I agree with this and hope that Hollywood can pay more attention to these serious problems like the topic of "Death Guard Walking" discussion. Chris, I admire your courage and actions."
This remark received a response from applause again, which was also the most important theme of this year's Oscars. Finally, Susan once again expressed her gratitude to the academy and then left the stage.
Looking at Susan who was excited, Hugo was also filled with emotion, but the tension in his heart was tightly winding step by step. This sense of urgency and cramping made Hugo feel at a loss. His brain suddenly became blank, and he couldn't even concentrate, let alone think.
When the winner of Best Actress was announced, the fog of the Oscars this year finally gradually dispersed. "Reason and Emotion" that had been praised by countless people officially announced that it would withdraw from the competition for the best film. In addition, "Baby Pig" and "Apollo 13" who were eliminated early, there are only "brave hearts" and "Death-in-law walks".
If "Deathly Walk" can win the Best Actor Award, then the overall momentum will still be no less than "brave heart" and the suspense will continue to be maintained until the last moment; on the contrary, if "Deathly Walk" cannot win in the male lead department, then there will be no suspense about the Best Picture.
But what’s interesting is that the best actor is exactly the biggest suspense at this year’s Oscars!
As analyzed before the award ceremony, Nicholas Cage, "Far Away from Casino", and Hugo, "Death-infernal Affairs", are undoubtedly the strongest contenders of this award, especially the controversy focused on Hugo will become the key points of the awards.
In the past few years, in addition to the popcorn movie "Speed of Life and Death", Hugo has contributed enough to get nominations in almost every work, and even took away the performances of Xiaojinren. His strong reputation has reached its peak, especially this year's three films have fully demonstrated Hugo's performance strength, and the call for winning awards has set a record high.
But on the other hand, Hugo's outstanding performance has been recognized by the Oscars. "Schindler's List" won Hugo's Oscar for Best Supporting Actor Little Golden Man. This was only two years ago. Is it really time for Hugo to win his second Little Golden Man? Don't forget that Hugo was once the winner of the Golden Raspberry Award. Not to mention that this year the Oscar gave Hugo three nominations, and the vote-scoring crisis was unprecedented.
Even if Hugo is aside, Nicholas Cage has dedicated his best career performance this year, and "Far Away from Casino" has won praise. This member of the Coppola family has won votes from many people in the circle; and Richard Dreyfus created the second spring of his artistic career with "Life is beautiful because of you". President Richard Nixon, played by Anthony Hopkins, is also the favorite historical figure of the academy. These two winners of previous years have passed many years since the last time they won the award, and it seems that it is not impossible to win their second Little Golden Man.
No one can ignore the strength of the three competitors.
Except for Massimo Trossily the "postman" who is inferior, it can be said that no one can predict the final outcome of the other four people. This may be Hugo's best chance to win, but it may be Hugo's worst chance to win. If it develops according to the historical trajectory, Nicholas Cage will win the only little golden man in his acting career by "Far Away from Casino". But now Hugo has become a member of history, will the trajectory change again?
In the eyes of everyone, Jessica Lange, the winner of the Oscar for Best Actress last year, walked onto the stage with elegant steps. The small red envelope in her hand was filled with the biggest suspense of the year!
